A first view with GAIA on KIC 8462852 - distance estimates and a comparison to other F stars
Michael Hippke, Daniel Angerhausen
Distance estimates from Gaia parallax and expected luminosities are compared for KIC 8462852. Gaia DR1 yields a parallax of mas, that is a distance of $391.4\substack{…
Sonneberg plate photometry for Boyajian's Star in two passbands
Michael Hippke, Peter Kroll, Frank Matthei +10
The F3 main sequence star KIC 8462852 (Boyajian's Star) showed deep (up to 20%) day-long brightness dips of unknown cause during the 4 years of the Kepler mission. A 0.164 mag (16%…
KELT-16b: A highly irradiated, ultra-short period hot Jupiter nearing tidal disruption
Thomas E. Oberst, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Knicole D. Colón +47
We announce the discovery of KELT-16b, a highly irradiated, ultra-short period hot Jupiter transiting the relatively bright () star TYC 2688-1839-1. A global analysis of…
The Stability of F-star Brightness on Century Timescales
Michael B. Lund, Joshua Pepper, Keivan G. Stassun +2
The century-long photometric record of the DASCH project provides a unique window into the variability of stars normally considered to be photometrically inactive. In this paper, w…
Predictable patterns in planetary transit timing variations and transit duration variations due to exomoons
René Heller, Michael Hippke, Ben Placek +2
We present new ways to identify single and multiple moons around extrasolar planets using planetary transit timing variations (TTVs) and transit duration variations (TDVs). For pla…
Transiting Exoplanet Studies and Community Targets for JWST's Early Release Science Program
Kevin B. Stevenson, Nikole K. Lewis, Jacob L. Bean +49
The James Webb Space Telescope will revolutionize transiting exoplanet atmospheric science due to its capability for continuous, long-duration observations and its larger collectin…
A statistical analysis of the accuracy of the digitized magnitudes of photometric plates on the time scale of decades with an application to the century-long light curve of KIC 8462852
Michael Hippke, Daniel Angerhausen, Michael B. Lund +2
We present a statistical analysis of the accuracy of the digitized magnitudes of photometric plates on the time scale of decades. In our examination of archival Johnson B photometr…
