Planet Masses, Radii, and Orbits from NASA's K2 Mission

Andrew W. Howard, Evan Sinukoff, Sarah Blunt +50

We report the masses, sizes, and orbital properties of 86 planets orbiting 55 stars observed by NASA's K2 Mission with follow-up Doppler measurements by the HIRES spectrometer at t…

Asteroseismology of the Nearby K-Dwarf Draconis using the Keck Planet Finder and TESS

Marc Hon, Daniel Huber, Yaguang Li +76

Asteroseismology of dwarf stars cooler than the Sun is very challenging due to the low amplitudes and rapid timescales of oscillations. Here, we present the asteroseismic detection…

Upper Limits on Stellar Companions to the Kepler-34 and Kepler-35 Systems

Carlos Jurado, Lauren M. Weiss, Laura Daclison +3

We obtained new spectra of Kepler-34 and Kepler-35 with Keck-HIRES, nearly a decade after these systems were originally characterized with this spectrograph and other instruments,…

KPF Confirms a Polar Orbit for KELT-18 b

Ryan A. Rubenzahl, Fei Dai, Samuel Halverson +24

We present the first spectroscopic transit results from the newly commissioned Keck Planet Finder on the Keck-I telescope at W. M. Keck Observatory. We observed a transit of KELT-1…

Obliquity Constraints for the Extremely Eccentric Sub-Saturn Kepler-1656 b

Ryan A. Rubenzahl, Andrew W. Howard, Samuel Halverson +25

The orbits of close-in exoplanets provide clues to their formation and evolutionary history. Many close-in exoplanets likely formed far out in their protoplanetary disks and migrat…

An Earth-sized Planet on the Verge of Tidal Disruption

Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard, Samuel Halverson +95

TOI-6255~b (GJ 4256) is an Earth-sized planet (1.079 ) with an orbital period of only 5.7 hours. With the newly commissioned Keck Planet Finder (KPF) and CARMEN…
