On The Relative Sizes of Planets Within Kepler Multiple Candidate Systems
David R. Ciardi, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric B. Ford +5
We present a study of the relative sizes of planets within the multiple candidate systems discovered with the mission. We have compared the size of each planet to the size…
The Discovery of HD 37605c and a Dispositive Null Detection of Transits of HD 37605b
Sharon Xuesong Wang, Jason T. Wright, William Cochran +15
We report the radial-velocity discovery of a second planetary mass companion to the K0 V star HD 37605, which was already known to host an eccentric, P~55 days Jovian planet, HD 37…
Swarm-NG: a CUDA Library for Parallel n-body Integrations with focus on Simulations of Planetary Systems
Saleh Dindar, Eric B. Ford, Mario Juric +5
We present Swarm-NG, a C++ library for the efficient direct integration of many n-body systems using highly-parallel Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), such as NVIDIA's Tesla T10 and…
Transit Timing Observations from Kepler: VII. Confirmation of 27 planets in 13 multiplanet systems via Transit Timing Variations and orbital stability
Jason H. Steffen, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric Agol +15
We confirm 27 planets in 13 planetary systems by showing the existence of statistically significant anti-correlated transit timing variations (TTVs), which demonstrates that the pl…
Alignment of the stellar spin with the orbits of a three-planet system
Roberto Sanchis-Ojeda, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Josh N. Winn +16
The Sun's equator and the planets' orbital planes are nearly aligned, which is presumably a consequence of their formation from a single spinning gaseous disk. For exoplanetary sys…
Constraining the False Positive Rate for Kepler Planet Candidates with Multi-Color Photometry from the GTC
Knicole D. Colón, Eric B. Ford, Robert C. Morehead
Using the OSIRIS instrument installed on the 10.4-m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) we acquired multi-color transit photometry of four small (Rp < 5 R_Earth) short-period (P < 6 day…
