Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing by Non-Spherical Haloes I:Theoretical Considerations
Paul J. Howell, Tereasa G. Brainerd
We use Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the theory of galaxy-galaxy lensing by non-spherical dark matter haloes. The simulations include a careful accounting of the effects o…
XO-3b: A Massive Planet in an Eccentric Orbit Transiting an F5V Star
Christopher M. Johns-Krull, Peter R. McCullough, Christopher J. Burke +13
We report the discovery of a massive (Mpsini = 13.02 +/- 0.64 Mjup; total mass 13.25 +/- 0.64 Mjup), large (1.95 +/- 0.16 Rjup) planet in a transiting, eccentric orbit (e = 0.260 +…
XO-2b: Transiting Hot Jupiter in a Metal-rich Common Proper Motion Binary
Christopher J. Burke, P. R. McCullough, Jeff A. Valenti +15
We report on a V=11.2 early K dwarf, XO-2 (GSC 03413-00005), that hosts a Rp=0.98+0.03/-0.01 Rjup, Mp=0.57+/-0.06 Mjup transiting extrasolar planet, XO-2b, with an orbital period o…
A Transiting Planet of a Sun-like Star
P. R. McCullough, J. E. Stys, Jeff A. Valenti +11
A planet transits an 11th magnitude, G1V star in the constellation Corona Borealis. We designate the planet XO-1b, and the star, XO-1, also known as GSC 02041-01657. XO-1 lacks a t…
