K2-295 b and K2-237 b: two transiting hot Jupiters
A. M. S. Smith, Sz. Csizmadia, D. Gandolfi +32
We report the discovery from K2 of two transiting hot Jupiter systems. K2-295 (observed in Campaign 8) is a K5 dwarf which hosts a planet slightly smaller than Jupiter, orbiting wi…
The orbital eccentricity of small planet systems
Vincent Van Eylen, Simon Albrecht, Xu Huang +8
We determine the orbital eccentricities of individual small Kepler planets, through a combination of asteroseismology and transit light-curve analysis. We are able to constrain the…
44 Validated Planets from K2 Campaign 10
John H. Livingston, Michael Endl, Fei Dai +31
We present 44 validated planets from the 10 observing campaign of the NASA mission, as well as high resolution spectroscopy and speckle imaging follow-up observa…
K2-260 b: a hot Jupiter transiting an F star, and K2-261 b: a warm Saturn around a bright G star
M. C. Johnson, F. Dai, A. B. Justesen +45
We present the discovery and confirmation of two new transiting giant planets from the Kepler extended mission K2. K2-260 b is a hot Jupiter transiting a F6V star in K2 Fi…
HD 89345: a bright oscillating star hosting a transiting warm Saturn-sized planet observed by K2
V. Van Eylen, F. Dai, S. Mathur +40
We report the discovery and characterization of HD 89345b (K2-234b; EPIC 248777106b), a Saturn-sized planet orbiting a slightly evolved star. HD 89345 is a bright star ( m…
Do close-in giant planets orbiting evolved stars prefer eccentric orbits?
Samuel K. Grunblatt, Daniel Huber, Eric Gaidos +7
The NASA Kepler and K2 Missions have recently revealed a population of transiting giant planets orbiting moderately evolved, low-luminosity red giant branch stars. Here, we present…
