The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite
George R. Ricker, Joshua N. Winn, Roland Vanderspek +55
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) will search for planets transiting bright and nearby stars. TESS has been selected by NASA for launch in 2017 as an Astrophysics Ex…
The APOGEE red-clump catalog: Precise distances, velocities, and high-resolution elemental abundances over a large area of the Milky Way's disk
Jo Bovy, David L. Nidever, Hans-Walter Rix +48
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey III's Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) is a high-resolution near-infrared spectroscopic survey covering all of the major…
Flicker as a tool for characterizing planets through Asterodensity Profiling
David M. Kipping, Fabienne A. Bastien, Keivan G. Stassun +3
Variability in the time series brightness of a star on a timescale of 8 hours, known as 'flicker', has been previously demonstrated to serve as a proxy for the surface gravity of a…
'Rapid fire' spectroscopy of Kepler solar-like oscillators
A. O. Thygesen, H. Bruntt, W. J. Chaplin +1
The NASA Kepler mission has been continuously monitoring the same field of the sky since the successful launch in March 2009, providing high-quality stellar lightcurves that are ex…
Limits on surface gravities of Kepler planet-candidate host stars from non-detection of solar-like oscillations
T. L. Campante, W. J. Chaplin, M. N. Lund +20
We present a novel method for estimating lower-limit surface gravities log g of Kepler targets whose data do not allow the detection of solar-like oscillations. The method is teste…
