Parallel Algorithm for Solving Kepler's Equation on Graphics Processing Units: Application to Analysis of Doppler Exoplanet Searches
Eric B. Ford
[Abridged] We present the results of a highly parallel Kepler equation solver using the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) on a commercial nVidia GeForce 280GTX and the "Compute Unifie…
Dynamical Simulations of the Planetary System HD69830
Matthew J. Payne, Eric B. Ford, Mark C. Wyatt +1
HD 69830 exhibits radial velocity variations attributed to three planets as well as infrared emission attributed to a warm debris disk. Previous studies have developed models for t…
Ten New and Updated Multi-planet Systems, and a Survey of Exoplanetary Systems
J. T. Wright, S. Upadhyay, G. W. Marcy +3
We present the latest velocities for 10 multi-planet systems, including a re-analysis of archival Keck and Lick data, resulting in improved velocities that supersede our previously…
Secular Evolution of HD 12661: A System Caught at an Unlikely Time
Dimitri Veras, Eric B. Ford
The eccentricity evolution of multiple planet systems can provide valuable constraints on planet formation models. Unfortunately, the inevitable uncertainties in the current orbita…
Identifying the rotation rate and the presence of dynamic weather on extrasolar Earth-like planets from photometric observations
E. Palle, Eric B. Ford, S. Seager +2
With the recent discoveries of hundreds of extrasolar planets, the search for planets like Earth and life in the universe, is quickly gaining momentum. In the future, large space o…
Characterizing the Orbital Eccentricities of Transiting Extrasolar Planets with Photometric Observations
Eric B. Ford, Samuel N. Quinn, Dimitri Veras
The discovery of over 200 extrasolar planets with the radial velocity (RV) technique has revealed that many giant planets have large eccentricities, in striking contrast with most…
