Detection of Potential Transit Signals in the First Twelve Quarters of Kepler Mission Data
Peter Tenenbaum, Jon M. Jenkins, Shawn Seader +26
We present the results of a search for potential transit signals in the first three years of photometry data acquired by the Kepler Mission. The targets of the search include 112,3…
Transit Timing Observations from Kepler: VII. Confirmation of 27 planets in 13 multiplanet systems via Transit Timing Variations and orbital stability
Jason H. Steffen, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric Agol +15
We confirm 27 planets in 13 planetary systems by showing the existence of statistically significant anti-correlated transit timing variations (TTVs), which demonstrates that the pl…
The Derivation, Properties and Value of Kepler's Combined Differential Photometric Precision
Jessie L. Christiansen, Jon M. Jenkins, Thomas S. Barclay +11
The Kepler Mission is searching for Earth-size planets orbiting solar-like stars by simultaneously observing >160,000 stars to detect sequences of transit events in the photometric…
Alignment of the stellar spin with the orbits of a three-planet system
Roberto Sanchis-Ojeda, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Josh N. Winn +16
The Sun's equator and the planets' orbital planes are nearly aligned, which is presumably a consequence of their formation from a single spinning gaseous disk. For exoplanetary sys…
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…
Almost All of Kepler's Multiple Planet Candidates are Planets
Jack J. Lissauer, Geoffrey W. Marcy, Jason F. Rowe +21
We present a statistical analysis that demonstrates that the overwhelming majority of Kepler candidate multiple transiting systems (multis) indeed represent true, physically-associ…
Detection of Potential Transit Signals in the First Three Quarters of Kepler Mission Data
Peter Tenenbaum, Jessie L. Christiansen, Jon M. Jenkins +22
We present the results of a search for potential transit signals in the first three quarters of photometry data acquired by the Kepler Mission. The targets of the search include 15…
Transit Timing Observations from Kepler: VI. Potentially interesting candidate systems from Fourier-based statistical tests
Jason H. Steffen, Eric B. Ford, Jason F. Rowe +15
We analyze the deviations of transit times from a linear ephemeris for the Kepler Objects of Interest (KOI) through Quarter six (Q6) of science data. We conduct two statistical tes…
