Supplementary Information for "A 15.65 solar mass black hole in an eclipsing binary in the nearby spiral galaxy Messier 33"
Jerome A. Orosz, Jeffrey E. McClintock, Ramesh Narayan +8
This Supplementary Information provides details about the spectral extraction (crowding issues and the removal of nebular lines), a discussion about the distance to M33, a model fo…
HD147506b: A Super-Massive Planet in an Eccentric Orbit Transiting a Bright Star
G. A. Bakos, G. Kovacs, G. Torres +18
We report the discovery of a massive (Mp = 9.04+/-0.50 MJup) planet transiting the bright (V = 8.7) F8 star HD 147506, with an orbital period of 5.63341+/-0.00013 days and an eccen…
The Transit Light Curve Project. V. System Parameters and Stellar Rotation Period of HD 189733
Joshua N. Winn, Matthew J. Holman, Gregory W. Henry +8
We present photometry of HD 189733 during eight transits of its close-in giant planet, and out-of-transit photometry spanning two years. Using the transit photometry, we determine…
The Sys-Rem Detrending Algorithm: Implementation and Testing
Tsevi Mazeh, Omer Tamuz, Shay Zucker
Sys-Rem (Tamuz, Mazeh & Zucker 2005) is a detrending algorithm designed to remove systematic effects in a large set of lightcurves obtained by a photometric survey. The algorithm w…
Searching for Variables in One of the WHAT Fields
Avi Shporer, Tsevi Mazeh, Amit Moran +2
We present preliminary results on a single field observed by WHAT, a small-aperture short focal length automated telescope with an 8.2 deg x 8.2 deg field of view, located at the W…
Report by the ESA-ESO Working Group on Extra-Solar Planets
M. Perryman, O. Hainaut, D. Dravins +14
Various techniques are being used to search for extra-solar planetary signatures, including accurate measurement of radial velocity and positional (astrometric) displacements, grav…
