Speckle Imaging Excludes Low-Mass Companions Orbiting the Exoplanet Host Star TRAPPIST-1

Steve B. Howell, Mark E. Everett, Elliott P. Horch +4

We have obtained the highest resolution images available of TRAPPIST-1 using the Gemini-South telescope and our speckle imaging camera. Observing at 692 and 883 nm, we reached the…

HAT-P-65b and HAT-P-66b: Two Transiting Inflated Hot Jupiters and Observational Evidence for the Re-Inflation of Close-In Giant Planets

Joel D. Hartman, Gáspár Á. Bakos, Waqas Bhatti +25

We present the discovery of the transiting exoplanets HAT-P-65b and HAT-P-66b, with orbital periods of 2.6055 d and 2.9721 d, masses of M and $0.783 \pm 0.0…

Stellar Companions to the Exoplanet Host Stars HD 2638 and HD 164509

Justin M. Wittrock, Stephen R. Kane, Elliott P. Horch +5

An important aspect of searching for exoplanets is understanding the binarity of the host stars. It is particularly important because nearly half of the solar-like stars within our…

K2 Discovers a Busy Bee: An Unusual Transiting Neptune Found in the Beehive Cluster

Christian Obermeier, Thomas Henning, Joshua E. Schlieder +21

Open clusters have been the focus of several exoplanet surveys but only a few planets have so far been discovered. The \emph{Kepler} spacecraft revealed an abundance of small plane…

HAT-P-47b AND HAT-P-48b: Two Low Density Sub-Saturn-Mass Transiting Planets on the Edge of the Period--Mass Desert

G. Á. Bakos, J. D. Hartman, G. Torres +21

We report the discovery of two new transiting extrasolar planets orbiting moderately bright (V = 10.7 and 12.2 mag) F stars (masses of 1.39 Msun and 1.10 Msun, respectively). The p…
