Zodiacal Exoplanets In Time (ZEIT) I: A Neptune-sized planet orbiting an M4.5 dwarf in the Hyades Star Cluster
Andrew W. Mann, Eric Gaidos, Gregory N. Mace +8
Studying the properties of young planetary systems can shed light on how the dynamics and structure of planets evolve during their most formative years. Recent K2 observations of n…
Doppler Monitoring of the WASP-47 Multiplanet System
Fei Dai, Joshua N. Winn, Pamela Arriagada +8
We present precise Doppler observations of WASP-47, a transiting planetary system featuring a hot Jupiter with both inner and outer planetary companions. This system has an unusual…
Multiwavelength Transit Observations of the Candidate Disintegrating Planetesimals Orbiting WD 1145+017
Bryce Croll, Paul A. Dalba, Andrew Vanderburg +12
We present multiwavelength, multi-telescope, ground-based follow-up photometry of the white dwarf WD 1145+017, that has recently been suggested to be orbited by up to six or more,…
A disintegrating minor planet transiting a white dwarf
Andrew Vanderburg, John Asher Johnson, Saul Rappaport +16
White dwarfs are the end state of most stars, including the Sun, after they exhaust their nuclear fuel. Between 1/4 and 1/2 of white dwarfs have elements heavier than helium in the…
WASP-47: A Hot Jupiter System with Two Additional Planets Discovered by K2
Juliette C. Becker, Andrew Vanderburg, Fred C. Adams +2
Using new data from the K2 mission, we show that WASP-47, a previously known hot Jupiter host, also hosts two additional transiting planets: a Neptune-sized outer planet and a supe…
The HARPS-N Rocky Planet Search I. HD219134b: A transiting rocky planet in a multi-planet system at 6.5 pc from the Sun
F. Motalebi, S. Udry, M. Gillon +36
We present here the detection of a system of four low-mass planets around the bright (V=5.5) and close-by (6.5 pc) star HD219134. This is the first result of the Rocky Planet Searc…
Two Stars Two Ways: Confirming a Microlensing Binary Lens Solution with a Spectroscopic Measurement of the Orbit
Jennifer C. Yee, John Asher Johnson, Jan Skowron +5
Light curves of microlensing events involving stellar binaries and planetary systems can provide information about the orbital elements of the system due to orbital modulations of…
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…
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…
