Multi-Color Simultaneous Photometry of the T-Tauri Star Having A Planetary Candidate CVSO 30

Masahiro Onitsuka, Akihiko Fukui, Norio Narita +4

We present three-band simultaneous observations of a weak-line T-Tauri star CVSO~30 (PTFO~8-8695), which is one of the youngest objects having a candidate transiting planet. The da…

Ground-based Transit Observation of the Habitable-zone Super-Earth K2-3d

Akihiko Fukui, John Livingston, Norio Narita +4

We report the first ground-based transit observation of K2-3d, a 1.5 R_Earth planet supposedly within the habitable zone around a bright M-dwarf host star, using the Okayama 188 cm…

The K2-ESPRINT Project III: A Close-in Super-Earth around a Metal-rich Mid-M Dwarf

Teruyuki Hirano, Akihiko Fukui, Andrew W. Mann +18

We validate a planet on a close-in orbit ( days) around K2-28 (EPIC 206318379), a metal-rich M4-type dwarf in the Campaign 3 fiel…

Multi-Color Transit Photometry of GJ 1214b through BJHKs-Bands and a Long-Term Monitoring of the Stellar Variability of GJ 1214

Norio Narita, Akihiko Fukui, Masahiro Ikoma +19

We present 5 new transit light curves of GJ 1214b taken in BJHKs-bands. Two transits were observed in B-band using the Suprime-Cam and the FOCAS instruments onboard the Subaru 8.2m…
