The K2-ESPRINT Project V: a short-period giant planet orbiting a subgiant star

Vincent Van Eylen, Simon Albrecht, Davide Gandolfi +31

We report on the discovery and characterization of the transiting planet K2-39b (EPIC 206247743b). With an orbital period of 4.6 days, it is the shortest-period planet orbiting a s…

What asteroseismology can do for exoplanets

Vincent Van Eylen, Mikkel N. Lund, Victor Silva Aguirre +12

We describe three useful applications of asteroseismology in the context of exoplanet science: (1) the detailed characterisation of exoplanet host stars; (2) the measurement of ste…

High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. VI. WASP-24, WASP-25 and WASP-26

John Southworth, T. C. Hinse, M. Burgdorf +55

We present time-series photometric observations of thirteen transits in the planetary systems WASP-24, WASP-25 and WASP-26. All three systems have orbital obliquity measurements, W…

What asteroseismology can do for exoplanets: Kepler-410A b is a Small Neptune around a bright star, in an eccentric orbit consistent with low obliquity

Vincent Van Eylen, Mikkel N. Lund, Victor Silva Aguirre +12

We confirm the Kepler planet candidate Kepler-410b (KOI-42b) as a Neptune sized exoplanet on a 17.8 day, eccentric orbit around the bright (Kp = 9.4) star Kepler-410A. This is the…

High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. V. WASP-15 and WASP-16

J. Southworth, L. Mancini, P. Browne +40

We present new photometric observations of WASP-15 and WASP-16, two transiting extrasolar planetary systems with measured orbital obliquities but without photometric follow-up sinc…

Physical properties, transmission and emission spectra of the WASP-19 planetary system from multi-colour photometry

L. Mancini, S. Ciceri, G. Chen +43

We present new ground-based, multi-colour, broad-band photometric measurements of the physical parameters, transmission and emission spectra of the transiting extrasolar planet WAS…

Kepler-77b: a very low albedo, Saturn-mass transiting planet around a metal-rich solar-like star

D. Gandolfi, H. Parviainen, M. Fridlund +18

We report the discovery of Kepler-77b (alias KOI-127.01), a Saturn-mass transiting planet in a 3.6-day orbit around a metal-rich solar-like star. We combined the publicly available…

A Giant Planet beyond the Snow Line in Microlensing Event OGLE-2011-BLG-0251

N. Kains, R. Street, J. -Y. Choi +128

We present the analysis of the gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2011-BLG-0251. This anomalous event was observed by several survey and follow-up collaborations conducting micr…

High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. IV. Confirmation of the huge radius of WASP-17b

John Southworth, M Dominik, X-S Fang +29

We present photometric observations of four transits in the WASP-17 planetary system, obtained using telescope defocussing techniques and with scatters reaching 0.5 mmag per point.…

The Transiting System GJ1214: High-Precision Defocused Transit Observations and a Search for Evidence of Transit Timing Variation

K. B. W. Harpsøe, S. Hardis, T. C. Hinse +37

Aims: We present 11 high-precision photometric transit observations of the transiting super-Earth planet GJ1214b. Combining these data with observations from other authors, we inve…

A New Type of Ambiguity in the Planet and Binary Interpretations of Central Perturbations of High-Magnification Gravitational Microlensing Events

J. -Y. Choi, I. -G. Shin, C. Han +118

High-magnification microlensing events provide an important channel to detect planets. Perturbations near the peak of a high-magnification event can be produced either by a planet…
