HAT-P-39b--HAT-P-41b: Three Highly Inflated Transiting Hot Jupiters
J. D. Hartman, G. Á. Bakos, B. Béky +26
We report the discovery of three new transiting extrasolar planets orbiting moderately bright (V=11.1 to 12.4) F stars. The planets have periods of P = 2.6940 d to 4.4572 d, masses…
Two 'b's in the Beehive: The Discovery of the First Hot Jupiters in an Open Cluster
S. N. Quinn, R. J. White, D. W. Latham +12
We present the discovery of two giant planets orbiting stars in Praesepe (also known as the Beehive Cluster). These are the first known hot Jupiters in an open cluster and the only…
Kepler constraints on planets near hot Jupiters
Jason H. Steffen, Darin Ragozzine, Daniel C. Fabrycky +9
We present the results of a search for planetary companions orbiting near hot Jupiter planet candidates (Jupiter-size candidates with orbital periods near 3 days) identified in the…
The Transiting Circumbinary Planets Kepler-34 and Kepler-35
William F. Welsh, Jerome A. Orosz, Joshua A. Carter +43
Most Sun-like stars in the Galaxy reside in gravitationally-bound pairs of stars called "binary stars". While long anticipated, the existence of a "circumbinary planet" orbiting su…
Planetary Candidates Observed by Kepler, III: Analysis of the First 16 Months of Data
Natalie M. Batalha, Jason F. Rowe, Stephen T. Bryson +69
New transiting planet candidates are identified in sixteen months (May 2009 - September 2010) of data from the Kepler spacecraft. Nearly five thousand periodic transit-like signals…
Kepler-20: A Sun-like Star with Three Sub-Neptune Exoplanets and Two Earth-size Candidates
Thomas N. Gautier, David Charbonneau, Jason F. Rowe +41
We present the discovery of the Kepler-20 planetary system, which we initially identified through the detection of five distinct periodic transit signals in the Kepler light curve…
Transit Timing Observations from Kepler: III. Confirmation of 4 Multiple Planet Systems by a Fourier-Domain Study of Anti-correlated Transit Timing Variations
Jason H. Steffen, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric B. Ford +45
We present a method to confirm the planetary nature of objects in systems with multiple transiting exoplanet candidates. This method involves a Fourier-Domain analysis of the devia…
Transit Timing Observations from Kepler: II. Confirmation of Two Multiplanet Systems via a Non-parametric Correlation Analysis
Eric B. Ford, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Jason H. Steffen +48
We present a new method for confirming transiting planets based on the combination of transit timingn variations (TTVs) and dynamical stability. Correlated TTVs provide evidence th…
HAT-P-38b: A Saturn-Mass Planet Transiting a Late G Star
B. Sato, J. D. Hartman, G. Á. Bakos +20
We report the discovery of HAT-P-38b, a Saturn-mass exoplanet transiting the V=12.56 dwarf star GSC 2314-00559 on a P = 4.6404 d circular orbit. The host star is a 0.89Msun late G-…
Transit Timing Observations from Kepler: IV. Confirmation of 4 Multiple Planet Systems by Simple Physical Models
Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric B. Ford, Jason H. Steffen +31
Eighty planetary systems of two or more planets are known to orbit stars other than the Sun. For most, the data can be sufficiently explained by non-interacting Keplerian orbits, s…
HAT-P-34b -- HAT-P-37b: Four Transiting Planets More Massive Than Jupiter Orbiting Moderately Bright Stars
G. Á. Bakos, J. D. Hartman, G. Torres +24
We report the discovery of four transiting extrasolar planets (HAT-P-34b - HAT-P-37b) with masses ranging from 1.05 to 3.33 MJ and periods from 1.33 to 5.45 days. These planets orb…
