A Search for the Transit of HD 168443b: Improved Orbital Parameters and Photometry

Genady Pilyavsky, Suvrath Mahadevan, Stephen R. Kane +13

The discovery of transiting planets around bright stars holds the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of planetary atmospheres. In this work we present the search for tr…

System Geometries and Transit / Eclipse Probabilities

Kaspar von Braun, Stephen R. Kane, Suvrath Mahadevan +3

Transiting exoplanets provide access to data to study the mass-radius relation and internal structure of extrasolar planets. Long-period transiting planets allow insight into plane…

Formation and Detection of Earth Mass Planets around Low Mass Stars

Ryan Montgomery, Greg Laughlin

We investigate an in-situ formation scenario for Earth-mass terrestrial planets in short-period, potentially habitable orbits around low-mass stars (M_star < 0.3 M_sun). We then in…

A Neptune-mass Planet Orbiting the Nearby G Dwarf HD16417

Simon O'Toole, C. G. Tinney, R. Paul Butler +6

Precision Doppler measurements from an intensive 48 night "Rocky Planet Search" observing campaign on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT) have revealed the presence of a low-mass…

On the Search For Transits of the Planets Orbiting Gl 876

P. D. Shankland, E. J. Rivera, G. Laughlin +14

We report the results of a globally coordinated photometric campaign to search for transits by the P ~ 30 d and P ~ 60 d outer planets of the 3-planet system orbiting the nearby M-…

A ~ 7.5 Earth-Mass Planet Orbiting the Nearby Star, GJ 876

E. J. Rivera, J. J. Lissauer, R. P. Butler +6

High precision, high cadence radial velocity monitoring over the past 8 years at the W. M. Keck Observatory reveals evidence for a third planet orbiting the nearby (4.69 pc) dM4 st…
