The First Kepler Mission Planet Confirmed With The Hobby-Eberly Telescope: Kepler-15b, a Hot Jupiter Enriched In Heavy Elements
Michael Endl, Phillip J. MacQueen, William D. Cochran +30
We report the discovery of Kepler-15b, a new transiting exoplanet detected by NASA's Kepler mission. The transit signal with a period of 4.94 days was detected in the quarter 1 (Q1…
KOI-126: A Triply-Eclipsing Hierarchical Triple with Two Low-Mass Stars
Joshua A. Carter, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Darin Ragozzine +20
The Kepler spacecraft has been monitoring the light from 150,000 stars in its primary quest to detect transiting exoplanets. Here we report on the detection of an eclipsing stellar…
A precise asteroseismic age and radius for the evolved Sun-like star KIC 11026764
T. S. Metcalfe, M. J. P. F. G. Monteiro, M. J. Thompson +55
The primary science goal of the Kepler Mission is to provide a census of exoplanets in the solar neighborhood, including the identification and characterization of habitable Earth-…
Modeling Kepler transit light curves as false positives: Rejection of blend scenarios for Kepler-9, and validation of Kepler-9d, a super-Earth-size planet in a multiple system
Guillermo Torres, François Fressin, Natalie M. Batalha +26
Light curves from the Kepler Mission contain valuable information on the nature of the phenomena producing the transit-like signals. To assist in exploring the possibility that the…
