Extracting Radial Velocities of A- and B-type Stars from Echelle Spectrograph Calibration Spectra

Juliette C. Becker, John Asher Johnson, Andrew Vanderburg +1

We present a technique to extract radial velocity measurements from echelle spectrograph observations of rapidly rotating stars ( km s). This type of me…

Characterizing the Cool KOIs VIII. Parameters of the Planets Orbiting Kepler's Coolest Dwarfs

Jonathan J. Swift, Benjamin T. Montet, Andrew Vanderburg +3

The coolest dwarf stars targeted by the Kepler Mission constitute a relatively small but scientifically valuable subset of the Kepler target stars, and provide a high-fidelity and…

A systematic search for transiting planets in the K2 data

Daniel Foreman-Mackey, Benjamin T. Montet, David W. Hogg +3

Photometry of stars from the K2 extension of NASA's Kepler mission is afflicted by systematic effects caused by small (few-pixel) drifts in the telescope pointing and other spacecr…

Friends of Hot Jupiters II: No Correspondence Between Hot-Jupiter Spin-Orbit Misalignment and the Incidence of Directly Imaged Stellar Companions

Henry Ngo, Heather A. Knutson, Sasha Hinkley +7

Multi-star systems are common, yet little is known about a stellar companion's influence on the formation and evolution of planetary systems. For instance, stellar companions may h…

Kepler-445, Kepler-446 and the Occurrence of Compact Multiples Orbiting Mid-M Dwarf Stars

Philip S. Muirhead, Andrew W. Mann, Andrew Vanderburg +7

We confirm and characterize the exoplanetary systems Kepler-445 and Kepler-446: two mid-M dwarf stars, each with multiple, small, short-period transiting planets. Kepler-445 is a m…

Obliquities of Kepler Stars: Comparison of Single- and Multiple-Transit Systems

Timothy D. Morton, Joshua N. Winn

The stellar obliquity of a transiting planetary system can be constrained by combining measurements of the star's rotation period, radius, and projected rotational velocity. Here w…
