Elemental Abundances of Kepler Objects of Interest in APOGEE. I. Two Distinct Orbital Period Regimes Inferred from Host Star Iron Abundances

Robert F. Wilson, Johanna Teske, Steven R. Majewski +13

The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) has observed 600 transiting exoplanets and exoplanet candidates from \textit{Kepler} (Kepler Objects of In…

Magellan/PFS Radial Velocities of GJ 9827, a late K dwarf at 30 pc with Three Transiting Super-Earths

Johanna K. Teske, Sharon X. Wang, Angie Wolfgang +5

The Kepler mission showed us that planets with sizes between that of Earth and Neptune appear to be the most common type in our Galaxy. These "super-Earths" continue to be of great…

A Six-Planet System Around the Star HD 34445

Steven S. Vogt, R. Paul Butler, Jennifer Burt +10

We present a new precision radial velocity dataset that reveals a multi-planet system orbiting the G0V star HD 34445. Our 18-year span consists of 333 precision radial velocity obs…

The discovery and mass measurement of a new ultra-short-period planet: EPIC~228732031b

Fei Dai, Joshua N. Winn, Davide Gandolfi +51

We report the discovery of a new ultra-short-period planet and summarize the properties of all such planets for which the mass and radius have been measured. The new planet, EPIC~2…

Stellar Chemical Clues As To The Rarity of Exoplanetary Tectonics

Cayman T. Unterborn, Scott D. Hull, Lars P. Stixrude +3

Earth's tectonic processes regulate the formation of continental crust, control its unique deep water and carbon cycles, and are vital to its surface habitability. A major driver o…

K2-106, a system containing a metal-rich planet and a planet of lower density

E. W. Guenther, O. Barragan, F. Dai +42

Planets in the mass range from 2 to 15 MEarth are very diverse. Some of them have low densities, while others are very dense. By measuring the masses and radii, the mean densities,…
