Analysis of Magnetic Field Variations Produced by Equatorial Electro-Jets
E. López, F. Aldás, A. Yoshikawa
The Equatorial Electrojet (EEJ) is a narrow band of electrons flowing from east to west at daytime at low latitudes. The electron current produces a magnetic field variation that c…
Precise Masses in the WASP-47 System
Andrew Vanderburg, Juliette C. Becker, Lars A. Buchhave +32
We present precise radial velocity observations of WASP-47, a star known to host a hot Jupiter, a distant Jovian companion, and, uniquely, two additional transiting planets in shor…
Seeing double with K2: Testing re-inflation with two remarkably similar planets around red giant branch stars
Samuel K. Grunblatt, Daniel Huber, Eric Gaidos +15
Despite more than 20 years since the discovery of the first gas giant planet with an anomalously large radius, the mechanism for planet inflation remains unknown. Here, we report t…
HAT-P-26b: A Neptune-Mass Exoplanet with a Well Constrained Heavy Element Abundance
Hannah R. Wakeford, David K. Sing, Tiffany Kataria +11
A correlation between giant-planet mass and atmospheric heavy elemental abundance was first noted in the past century from observations of planets in our own Solar System, and has…
The Kepler-19 system: a thick-envelope super-Earth with two Neptune-mass companions characterized using Radial Velocities and Transit Timing Variations
Luca Malavolta, Luca Borsato, Valentina Granata +36
We report a detailed characterization of the Kepler-19 system. This star was previously known to host a transiting planet with a period of 9.29 days, a radius of 2.2 R and…
Four Sub-Saturns with Dissimilar Densities: Windows into Planetary Cores and Envelopes
Erik A. Petigura, Evan Sinukoff, Eric Lopez +12
We present results from a Keck/HIRES radial velocity campaign to study four sub-Saturn-sized planets, K2-27b, K2-32b, K2-39b, and K2-108b, with the goal of understanding their mass…
