Transit Search from Antarctica and Chile - Comparison and Combination

T. Fruth, J. Cabrera, Sz. Csizmadia +17

Observing sites at the East-Antarctic plateau are considered to provide exceptional conditions for astronomy. The aim of this work is to assess its potential for detecting transiti…

The Planetary System to KIC 11442793: A Compact Analogue to the Solar System

J. Cabrera, Sz. Csizmadia, H. Lehmann +7

We announce the discovery of a planetary system with 7 transiting planets around a Kepler target, a current record for transiting systems. Planets b, c, e and f are reported for th…

The PLATO 2.0 Mission

H. Rauer, C. Catala, C. Aerts +159

PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it…

The Berlin Exoplanet Search Telescope II. Catalog of Variable Stars. I. Characterization of Three Southern Target Fields

T. Fruth, J. Cabrera, R. Chini +11

A photometric survey of three Southern target fields with BEST II yielded the detection of 2,406 previously unknown variable stars and an additional 617 stars with suspected variab…

The effect of stellar limb darkening values on the accuracy of the planet radii derived from photometric transit observations

Sz. Csizmadia, Th. Pasternacki, C. Dreyer +3

We study how the precision of the exoplanet radius determination is affected by our present knowledge of limb darkening in two cases: when we fix the limb darkening coefficients an…
