The Pan-Pacific Planet Search. VIII. Complete results and the occurrence rate of planets around low-luminosity giants
Robert A. Wittenmyer, R. P. Butler, Jonathan Horner +6
Our knowledge of the populations and occurrence rates of planets orbiting evolved intermediate-mass stars lags behind that for solar-type stars by at least a decade. Some radial ve…
Giant planets around FGK stars form probably through core accretion
Wei Wang, Liang Wang, Xiang Li +2
We present a statistical study of the planet-metallicity (P-M) correlation, by comparing the 744 stars with candidate planets (SWPs) in the Kepler field which have been observed wi…
A Pair of Giant Planets around the Evolved Intermediate-Mass Star HD 47366: Multiple Circular Orbits or a Mutually Retrograde Configuration
Bun'ei Sato, Liang Wang, Yu-Juan Liu +19
We report the detection of a double planetary system around the evolved intermediate-mass star HD 47366 from precise radial-velocity measurements at Okayama Astrophysical Observato…
The Pan-Pacific Planet Search. IV. Two super-Jupiters in a 3:5 resonance orbiting the giant star HD33844
Robert A. Wittenmyer, John Asher Johnson, R. P. Butler +9
We report the discovery of two giant planets orbiting the K giant HD 33844 based on radial velocity data from three independent campaigns. The planets move on nearly circular orbit…
The Pan-Pacific Planet Search. II. Confirmation of a two-planet system around HD 121056
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Liang Wang, Fan Liu +5
Precise radial velocities from the Anglo-Australian Telescope confirm the presence of a rare short-period planet around the K0 giant HD 121056. An independent two-planet solution u…
The Pan-Pacific Planet Search. I. A Giant Planet Orbiting 7 CMa
R. A. Wittenmyer, M. Endl, L. Wang +3
We introduce the Pan-Pacific Planet Search, a survey of 170 metal-rich Southern hemisphere subgiants using the 3.9m Anglo-Australian Telescope. We report the first discovery from t…
A Possible Substellar Companion to the Intermediate-mass Giant HD 175679
Liang Wang, Bun'ei Sato, Gang Zhao +12
We report the discovery of a substellar companion around the intermediatemass giant HD 175679. Precise radial velocity data of the star from Xinglong Station and Okayama Astrophysi…
