Kepler Observations of Transiting Hot Compact Objects
Jason F. Rowe, William J. Borucki, David Koch +18
Kepler photometry has revealed two unusual transiting companions orbiting an early A-star and a late B-star. In both cases the occultation of the companion is deeper than the trans…
Kepler Mission Design, Realized Photometric Performance, and Early Science
David G. Koch, William J. Borucki, Gibor Basri +44
The Kepler Mission, launched on Mar 6, 2009 was designed with the explicit capability to detect Earth-size planets in the habitable zone of solar-like stars using the transit photo…
Discovery of the Transiting Planet Kepler-5b
David G. Koch, William J. Borucki, Jason F. Rowe +18
We present 44 days of high duty cycle, ultra precise photometry of the 13th magnitude star Kepler-5 (KIC 8191672, Teff=6300 K, logg=4.1), which exhibits periodic transits with a de…
Discovery and Rossiter-McLaughlin Effect of Exoplanet Kepler-8b
Jon M. Jenkins, William J. Borucki, David G. Koch +50
We report the discovery and the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect of Kepler-8b, a transiting planet identified by the NASA Kepler Mission. Kepler photometry and Keck-HIRES radial velociti…
The Kepler Follow-up Observation Program
Thomas N. Gautier, Natalie M. Batalha, William J. Borucki +14
The Kepler Mission was launched on March 6, 2009 to perform a photometric survey of more than 100,000 dwarf stars to search for terrestrial-size planets with the transit technique.…
