Transit Photometry of the Core-Dominated Planet HD 149026b
David Charbonneau, Joshua N. Winn, David W. Latham +8
We report g, V, and r photometric time series of HD 149026 spanning predicted times of transit of the Saturn-mass planetary companion, which was recently discovered by Sato and col…
Detection of Thermal Emission from an Extrasolar Planet
David Charbonneau, Lori E. Allen, S. Thomas Megeath +8
We present Spitzer Space Telescope infrared photometric time series of the transiting extrasolar planet system TrES-1. The data span a predicted time of secondary eclipse, correspo…
The Challenge of Wide-Field Transit Surveys: The Case of GSC 01944-02289
Georgi Mandushev, Guillermo Torres, David W. Latham +7
Wide-field searches for transiting extra-solar giant planets face the difficult challenge of separating true transit events from the numerous false positives caused by isolated or…
TrES-1: The Transiting Planet of a Bright K0V Star
Roi Alonso, Timothy M. Brown, Guillermo Torres +9
We report the detection of a transiting Jupiter-sized planet orbiting a relatively bright (V=11.79) K0V star. We detected the transit light-curve signature in the course of the TrE…
When Do Planets Form? A Search for Extra-solar Planets Around Metal-Poor Stars
A. Sozzetti, D. W. Latham, G. Torres +4
We present preliminary results from our spectroscopic search for planets within 1 AU of metal-poor field dwarfs using NASA time with HIRES on Keck I. The core accretion model of ga…
An interferometric-spectroscopic orbit for the binary HD 195987: Testing models of stellar evolution for metal-poor stars
Guillermo Torres, Andrew F. Boden, David W. Latham +2
We report spectroscopic and interferometric observations of the moderately metal-poor double-lined binary system HD 195987, with an orbital period of 57.3 days. By combining our ra…
