Kepler Eclipsing Binary Stars. VII. The Catalog of Eclipsing Binaries Found in the Entire Kepler Data-Set

Brian Kirk, Kyle Conroy, Andrej Prša +47

The primary Kepler Mission provided nearly continuous monitoring of ~200,000 objects with unprecedented photometric precision. We present the final catalog of eclipsing binary syst…

Planet Hunters. VIII. Characterization of 41 Long-Period Exoplanet Candidates from Kepler Archival Data

Ji Wang, Debra A. Fischer, Thomas Barclay +30

The census of exoplanets is incomplete for orbital distances larger than 1 AU. Here, we present 41 long-period planet candidates in 38 systems identified by Planet Hunters based on…

Planetary Candidates Observed by Kepler. VII. The First Fully Uniform Catalog Based on The Entire 48 Month Dataset (Q1-Q17 DR24)

Jeffrey L. Coughlin, F. Mullally, Susan E. Thompson +32

We present the seventh Kepler planet candidate catalog, which is the first to be based on the entire, uniformly processed, 48 month Kepler dataset. This is the first fully automate…

Young "Dipper" Stars in Upper Sco and Oph Observed by K2

M. Ansdell, E. Gaidos, S. A. Rappaport +8

We present ten young (10 Myr) late-K and M dwarf stars observed in K2 Campaign 2 that host protoplanetary disks and exhibit quasi-periodic or aperiodic dimming events. Th…

Evidence for Reflected Light from the Most Eccentric Exoplanet Known

Stephen R. Kane, Robert A. Wittenmyer, Natalie R. Hinkel +16

Planets in highly eccentric orbits form a class of objects not seen within our Solar System. The most extreme case known amongst these objects is the planet orbiting HD~20782, with…

A New Analysis of the Exoplanet Hosting System HD 6434

Natalie R. Hinkel, Stephen R. Kane, Genady Pilyavsky +5

The current goal of exoplanetary science is not only focused on detecting but characterizing planetary systems in hopes of understanding how they formed, evolved, and relate to the…

Spectroscopy, MOST Photometry, and Interferometry of MWC 314: Is it an LBV or an interacting binary?

Noel D. Richardson, Anthony F. J. Moffat, Raphaël Maltais-Tariant +34

MWC 314 is a bright candidate luminous blue variable that resides in a fairly close binary system, with an orbital period of 60.7530.003 d. We observed MWC 314 with a combinat…

The Ages of A-Stars I: Interferometric Observations and Age Estimates for Stars in the Ursa Major Moving Group

Jeremy Jones, R. J. White, T. Boyajian +12

We have observed and spatially resolved a set of seven A-type stars in the nearby Ursa Major moving group with the Classic, CLIMB, and PAVO beam combiners on the CHARA Array. At le…

A Comprehensive Characterization of the 70 Virginis Planetary System

Stephen R. Kane, Tabetha S. Boyajian, Gregory W. Henry +6

An on-going effort in the characterization of exoplanetary systems is the accurate determination of host star properties. This effort extends to the relatively bright host stars of…

Kepler Eclipsing Binary Stars. VI. Identification of Eclipsing Binaries in the K2 Campaign 0 Data-set

Daryll M. LaCourse, Kian J. Jek, Thomas L. Jacobs +15

The original {\it Kepler} mission observed and characterized over 2400 eclipsing binaries in addition to its prolific exoplanet detections. Despite the mechanical malfunction and s…

Refined Properties of the HD 130322 Planetary System

Natalie R. Hinkel, Stephen R. Kane, Gregory W. Henry +5

Exoplanetary systems closest to the Sun, with the brightest host stars, provide the most favorable opportunities for characterization studies of the host star and their planet(s).…

How to Constrain Your M Dwarf: measuring effective temperature, bolometric luminosity, mass, and radius

Andrew W. Mann, Gregory A. Feiden, Eric Gaidos +2

Precise and accurate parameters for late-type (late K and M) dwarf stars are important for characterization of any orbiting planets, but such determinations have been hampered by t…
