A Hot Saturn Planet Orbiting HD 88133, from the N2K Consortium
D. A. Fischer, G. Laughlin, R. P. Butler +20
The N2K consortium is carrying out a distributed observing campaign with the Keck, Magellan and Subaru telescopes, as well as the automatic photometric telescopes of Fairborn Obser…
The Microlensing Planet Finder: Completing the Census of Extrasolar Planets in the Milky Way
D. P. Bennett, I. Bond, E. Cheng +21
The Microlensing Planet Finder (MPF) is a proposed Discovery mission that will complete the first census of extrasolar planets with sensitivity to planets like those in our own sol…
Angular diameters, fluxes and extinction of compact planetary nebulae: further evidence for steeper extinction towards the Bulge
P. M. E. Ruffle, A. A. Zijlstra, J. R. Walsh +5
We present values for angular diameter, flux and extinction for 70 Galactic planetary nebulae observed using narrow band filters. Angular diameters are derived using constant emiss…
The Araucaria Project. An improved distance to the Sculptor spiral galaxy NGC 300 from its Cepheid variables
W. Gieren, G. Pietrzynski, A. Walker +8
In a previous paper, we reported on the discovery of more than a hundred new Cepheid variables in the Sculptor Group spiral NGC 300 from wide-field images taken in the B and V phot…
The Most Exciting Massive Binary Cluster in NGC 5128: Clues to the Formation of Globular Clusters
Dante Minniti, Marina Rejkuba, Jose G. Funes S. J. +1
VLT images in BVI are used to identify the ionizing source centered on Sersic 13, the largest HII region of the giant nearby galaxy NGC 5128 with log L_Halpha=39.6 erg/s. This ioni…
A transiting extrasolar giant planet around the star OGLE-TR-113
Maciej Konacki, Guillermo Torres, Dimitar D. Sasselov +6
We report the independent discovery of a new extrasolar transiting planet around OGLE-TR-113, a candidate star from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment. Small radial-veloc…
