WASP-14 b: Transit Timing analysis of 19 light curves
St. Raetz, G. Maciejewski, M. Seeliger +11
Although WASP-14 b is one of the most massive and densest exoplanets on a tight and eccentric orbit, it has never been a target of photometric follow-up monitoring or dedicated obs…
Astrometric follow-up observations of directly imaged sub-stellar companions to young stars and brown dwarfs
C. Ginski, T. O. B. Schmidt, M. Mugrauer +4
The formation of massive planetary or brown dwarf companions at large projected separations from their host star is not yet well understood. In order to put constraints on formatio…
Transit timing of TrES-2: a combined analysis of ground- and space-based photometry
St. Raetz, G. Maciejewski, Ch. Ginski +21
Homogeneous observations and careful analysis of transit light curves can lead to the identification of transit timing variations (TTVs). TrES-2 is one of few exoplanets, which off…
Investigation of a transiting planet candidate in Trumpler 37: an astrophysical false positive eclipsing spectroscopic binary star
R. Errmann, G. Torres, T. O. B. Schmidt +50
We report our investigation of the first transiting planet candidate from the YETI project in the young (~4 Myr old) open cluster Trumpler 37. The transit-like signal detected in t…
Multi-site campaign for transit timing variations of WASP-12 b: possible detection of a long-period signal of planetary origin
G. Maciejewski, D. Dimitrov, M. Seeliger +38
The transiting planet WASP-12 b was identified as a potential target for transit timing studies because a departure from a linear ephemeris was reported in the literature. Such dev…
A Possible Detection of Occultation by a Proto-planetary Clump in GM Cephei
The YETI Collaboration, W. P. Chen, S. C. -L. Hu +41
GM Cep in the young (~4 Myr) open cluster Trumpler 37 has been known to be an abrupt variable and to have a circumstellar disk with very active accretion. Our monitoring observatio…
A new flare star member candidate in the Pleiades cluster
M. Moualla, T. O. B. Schmidt, R. Neuhäuser +19
We present a new flare star, which was discovered during our survey on a selected field at the edge of the Pleiades cluster. The field was observed in the period 2007 - 2010 with t…
Young Exoplanet Transit Initiative (YETI)
R. Neuhäuser, R. Errmann, A. Berndt +80
We present the Young Exoplanet Transit Initiative (YETI), in which we use several 0.2 to 2.6m telescopes around the world to monitor continuously young (< 100 Myr), nearby (< 1 kpc…
The nearby eclipsing stellar system delta Velorum. II. First reliable orbit for the eclipsing pair
T. Pribulla, A. Merand, P. Kervella +8
Context. The nearby multiple system delta Velorum contains a widely detached eclipsing binary and a third component. Aims. We take advantage of this system offering the opportunity…
Towards the Rosetta Stone of planet formation
G. Maciejewski, R. Neuhaeuser, R. Errmann +18
Transiting exoplanets (TEPs) observed just about 10 Myrs after formation of their host systems may serve as the Rosetta Stone for planet formation theories. They would give strong…
