A Technique for Detecting Starlight Scattered from Transiting Extrasolar Planets with Application to HD 209458b
Xin Liu, Edwin L. Turner, Norio Narita +6
We present a new technique for detecting scattered starlight from transiting, close-orbiting extrasolar giant planets (CEGPs) that has the virtues of simplicity, robustness, linear…
The multiple quasar Q2237+0305 under a microlensing caustic
T. Anguita, R. W. Schmidt, E. L. Turner +5
We use the high magnification event seen in the 1999 OGLE campaign light curve of image C of the quadruply imaged gravitational lens Q2237+0305 to study the structure of the quasar…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Lens Search. II. Statistical Lens Sample from the Third Data Release
Naohisa Inada, Masamune Oguri, Robert H. Becker +31
We report the first results of our systematic search for strongly lensed quasars using the spectroscopically confirmed quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Among 46,420…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Lens Search. III. Constraints on Dark Energy from the Third Data Release Quasar Lens Catalog
Masamune Oguri, Naohisa Inada, Michael A. Strauss +31
We present cosmological results from the statistics of lensed quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Lens Search. By taking proper account of the selection function,…
Spin-Orbit Alignment for the Eccentric Exoplanet HD 147506b
Joshua N. Winn, John Asher Johnson, Kathryn M. G. Peek +7
The short-period exoplanet HD 147506b (also known as HAT-P-2b) has an eccentric orbit, raising the possibility that it migrated through planet-planet scattering or Kozai oscillatio…
Searching for Earth analogues around the nearest stars: the disk age-metallicity relation and the age distribution in the Solar Neighbourhood
I. Neill Reid, Edwin L. Turner, Margaret C. Turnbull +2
The chemical composition of Earth's atmosphere has undergone substantial evolution over the course of its history. It is possible, even likely, that terrestrial planets in other pl…
