Kepler-16: A Transiting Circumbinary Planet
Laurance R. Doyle, Joshua A. Carter, Daniel C. Fabrycky +46
We report the detection of a planet whose orbit surrounds a pair of low-mass stars. Data from the Kepler spacecraft reveal transits of the planet across both stars, in addition to…
The architecture of the hierarchical triple star KOI 928 from eclipse timing variations seen in Kepler photometry
J. H. Steffen, S. N. Quinn, W. J. Borucki +25
We present a hierarchical triple star system (KIC 9140402) where a low mass eclipsing binary orbits a more massive third star. The orbital period of the binary (4.98829 Days) is de…
Kepler Eclipsing Binary Stars. II. 2165 Eclipsing Binaries in the Second Data Release
Robert W. Slawson, Andrej Prsa, William F. Welsh +21
The Kepler Mission provides nearly continuous monitoring of ~156 000 objects with unprecedented photometric precision. Coincident with the first data release, we presented a catalo…
A Closely-Packed System of Low-Mass, Low-Density Planets Transiting Kepler-11
Jack J. Lissauer, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric B. Ford +36
When an extrasolar planet passes in front of its star (transits), its radius can be measured from the decrease in starlight and its orbital period from the time between transits. M…
