OGLE-2015-BLG-1395Lb: A Cold Sub-Saturn Mass Planet Orbiting an M Dwarf
Andrew A. Cole, Joshua W. Blackman, Jean-Philippe Beaulieu +75
We present an analysis of the high-magnification microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-1395 and report the discovery of a sub-Saturn mass companion to the lens. Photometric coverage of…
The Orbit of WASP-4 b is in Decay
Ö. Baştürk, A. C. Kutluay, A. Barker +25
WASP-4 b is a hot Jupiter exhibiting a decreasing orbital period, prompting investigations into potential mechanisms driving its evolution. We analyzed 173 transit light curves, in…
OGLE-2015-BLG-1609Lb: Sub-jovian planet orbiting a low-mass stellar or brown dwarf host
M. J. Mróz, R. Poleski, A. Udalski +70
We present a comprehensive analysis of a planetary microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-1609. The planetary anomaly was detected by two survey telescopes, OGLE and MOA. Each of these s…
Star-spot activity, orbital obliquity, transmission spectrum, physical properties, and TTVs of the HATS-2 planetary system
F. Biagiotti, L. Mancini, J. Southworth +23
Our aim in this paper is to refine the orbital and physical parameters of the HATS-2 planetary system and study transit timing variations and atmospheric composition thanks to tran…
OGLE-2019-BLG-0825: Constraints on the Source System and Effect on Binary-lens Parameters arising from a Five Day Xallarap Effect in a Candidate Planetary Microlensing Event
Yuki K. Satoh, Naoki Koshimoto, David P. Bennett +86
We present an analysis of microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-0825. This event was identified as a planetary candidate by preliminary modeling. We find that significant residuals from…
TOI-2084 b and TOI-4184 b: two new sub-Neptunes around M dwarf stars
K. Barkaoui, M. Timmermans, A. Soubkiou +67
We present the discovery and validation of two TESS exoplanets orbiting nearby M dwarfs: TOI-2084b, and TOI-4184b. We characterized the host stars by combining spectra from Shane/K…
A search for transit timing variations in the HATS-18 planetary system
John Southworth, A. J. Barker, T. C. Hinse +23
HATS-18b is a transiting planet with a large mass and a short orbital period, and is one of the best candidates for the detection of orbital decay induced by tidal effects. We pres…
VLT, GROND and Danish Telescope observations of transits in the TRAPPIST-1 system
John Southworth, L. Mancini, M. Dominik +14
TRAPPIST-1 is an ultra-cool dwarf that hosts seven known transiting planets. We present photometry of the system obtained using three telescopes at ESO La Silla (the Danish 1.54-m…
Physical properties of near-Earth asteroid (2102) Tantalus from multi-wavelength observations
Agata Rożek, Stephen C. Lowry, Benjamin Rozitis +20
Between 2010 and 2017 we have collected new optical and radar observations of the potentially hazardous asteroid (2102)~Tantalus from the ESO NTT and Danish telescopes at the La Si…
An analysis of binary microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0060
Y. Tsapras, A. Cassan, C. Ranc +83
We present the analysis of stellar binary microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0060 based on observations obtained from 13 different telescopes. Intensive coverage of the anomalous par…
OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb: First Spitzer Bulge Planet Lies Near the Planet/Brown-Dwarf Boundary
Y. -H. Ryu, J. C. Yee, A. Udalski +106
We report the discovery of OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb, which is likely to be the first Spitzer microlensing planet in the Galactic bulge/bar, an assignation that can be confirmed by two…
MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb: A Massive Planet Characterized by Combining Lightcurve Analysis and Keck AO Imaging
Naoki Koshimoto, Yossi Shvartzvald, David Bennett +55
We report the discovery of a microlensing planet --- MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb --- with a large planet/host mass ratio of . This event was located near the …
Faint source star planetary microlensing: the discovery of the cold gas giant planet OGLE-2014-BLG-0676Lb
N. J. Rattenbury, D. P. Bennett, T. Sumi +85
We report the discovery of a planet --- OGLE-2014-BLG-0676Lb --- via gravitational microlensing. Observations for the lensing event were made by the MOA, OGLE, Wise, RoboNET/LCOGT,…
Stellar activity as noise in exoplanet detection I. Methods and application to solar-like stars and activity cycles
H. Korhonen, J. M. Andersen, N. Piskunov +4
The detection of exoplanets using any method is prone to confusion due to the intrinsic variability of the host star. We investigate the effect of cool starspots on the detectabili…
