The Hill sphere transits of Beta Pictoris c and the search for another 1981-like event
V. E. C. Bakker, M. A. Kenworthy, R. Stuik +17
Beta Pictoris is a young and nearby planetary system hosting an edge-on debris disk and at least three gas-giant planets. Their circumplanetary environments could host exomoons and…
The Pictoris b Hill sphere transit campaign. Paper II: Searching for the signatures of the Pictoris exoplanets through time delay analysis of the Scuti pulsations
Sebastian Zieba, Konstanze Zwintz, Matthew Kenworthy +34
The Pictoris system is the closest known stellar system with directly detected gas giant planets, an edge-on circumstellar disc, and evidence of falling sublimating bodies and…
The Pictoris b Hill sphere transit campaign. Paper I: Photometric limits to dust and rings
M. A. Kenworthy, S. N. Mellon, J. I. Bailey +33
Photometric monitoring of Beta Pictoris in 1981 showed anomalous fluctuations of up to 4% over several days, consistent with foreground material transiting the stellar disk. The su…
MASCARA-3b: A hot Jupiter transiting a bright F7 star in an aligned orbit
M. Hjorth, S. Albrecht, G. J. J. Talens +12
We report the discovery of MASCARA-3b, a hot Jupiter orbiting its bright (V = 8.33) late F-type host every days in an almost circular orbit ($e = 0.050^{+0.020…
MASCARA-4 b/bRing-1b - A retrograde hot Jupiter around the bright A3V star HD 85628
P. Dorval, G. J. J. Talens, G. P. P. L. Otten +25
In this paper, we aim to characterize a transiting planetary candidate in the southern skies found in the combined MASCARA and bRing data sets of HD 85628, an A3V star of V = 8.2 m…
Data calibration for the MASCARA and bRing instruments
G. J. J. Talens, E. R. Deul, R. Stuik +8
Aims: MASCARA and bRing are photometric surveys designed to detect variability caused by exoplanets in stars with . Such variability signals are typically small and requ…
MASCARA-1 b: A hot Jupiter transiting a bright A-star in a misaligned orbit
G. J. J. Talens, S. Albrecht, J. F. P. Spronck +11
We report the discovery of MASCARA-1 b, the first exoplanet discovered with the Multi-site All-Sky CAmeRA (MASCARA). It is a hot Jupiter orbiting a bright , rapidly rotati…
MASCARA-2 b: A hot Jupiter transiting the A-star HD185603
G. J. J. Talens, A. B. Justesen, S. Albrecht +13
In this paper we present MASCARA-2 b, a hot Jupiter transiting the A2 star HD 185603. Since early 2015, MASCARA has taken more than 1.6 million flux measurements of the s…
Combining high-dispersion spectroscopy (HDS) with high contrast imaging (HCI): Probing rocky planets around our nearest neighbors
Ignas Snellen, Remco de Kok, Jayne Birkby +6
Aims: In this work, we discuss a way to combine High Dispersion Spectroscopy and High Contrast Imaging (HDS+HCI). For a planet located at a resolvable angular distance from its hos…
Ground-based search for the brightest transiting planets with the Multi-site All-Sky CAmeRA - MASCARA
Ignas Snellen, Remko Stuik, Ramon Navarro +6
The Multi-site All-sky CAmeRA MASCARA is an instrument concept consisting of several stations across the globe, with each station containing a battery of low-cost cameras to monito…
