Radial Velocity Discovery of an Eccentric Jovian World Orbiting at 18 au

Sarah Blunt, Michael Endl, Lauren M. Weiss +25

Based on two decades of radial velocity (RV) observations using Keck/HIRES and McDonald/Tull, and more recent observations using the Automated Planet Finder, we found that the near…

The Kepler Follow-Up Observation Program. II. Stellar Parameters from Medium- and High-Resolution Spectroscopy

E. Furlan, D. R. Ciardi, W. D. Cochran +22

We present results from spectroscopic follow-up observations of stars identified in the Kepler field and carried out by teams of the Kepler Follow-Up Observation Program. Two sampl…

A 12-Year Activity Cycle for HD 219134

Marshall C. Johnson, Michael Endl, William D. Cochran +8

The nearby (6.5 pc) star HD 219134 was recently shown by Motalebi et al. (2015) and Vogt et al. (2015) to host several planets, the innermost of which is transiting. We present twe…

Two New Long-Period Giant Planets from the McDonald Observatory Planet Search and Two Stars with Long-Period Radial Velocity Signals Related to Stellar Activity Cycles

Michael Endl, Erik J. Brugamyer, William D. Cochran +16

We report the detection of two new long-period giant planets orbiting the stars HD 95872 and HD 162004 (psi1 Draconis B) by the McDonald Observatory planet search. The planet HD 95…

Kepler-424 b: A "Lonely" Hot Jupiter That Found A Companion

Michael Endl, Douglas A. Caldwell, Thomas Barclay +13

Hot Jupiter systems provide unique observational constraints for migration models in multiple systems and binaries. We report on the discovery of the Kepler-424 (KOI-214) two-plane…

Masses, Radii, and Orbits of Small Kepler Planets: The Transition from Gaseous to Rocky Planets

Geoffrey W. Marcy, Howard Isaacson, Andrew W. Howard +100

We report on the masses, sizes, and orbits of the planets orbiting 22 Kepler stars. There are 49 planet candidates around these stars, including 42 detected through transits and 7…
