Friends of Hot Jupiters I: A Radial Velocity Search for Massive, Long-Period Companions to Close-In Gas Giant Planets
Heather A. Knutson, Benjamin J. Fulton, Benjamin T. Montet +10
In this paper we search for distant massive companions to known transiting gas giant planets that may have influenced the dynamical evolution of these systems. We present new radia…
Stellar Spin-Orbit Misalignment in a Multiplanet System
Daniel Huber, Joshua A. Carter, Mauro Barbieri +32
Stars hosting hot Jupiters are often observed to have high obliquities, whereas stars with multiple co-planar planets have been seen to have low obliquities. This has been interpre…
Maximizing Kepler science return per telemetered pixel: Searching the habitable zones of the brightest stars
Benjamin T. Montet, Ruth Angus, Tom Barclay +9
In today's mailing, Hogg et al. propose image modeling techniques to maintain 10-ppm-level precision photometry in Kepler data with only two working reaction wheels. While these re…
Maximizing Kepler science return per telemetered pixel: Detailed models of the focal plane in the two-wheel era
David W. Hogg, Ruth Angus, Tom Barclay +9
Kepler's immense photometric precision to date was maintained through satellite stability and precise pointing. In this white paper, we argue that image modeling--fitting the Keple…
WASP-12b and HAT-P-8b are Members of Triple Star Systems
Eric B. Bechter, Justin R. Crepp, Henry Ngo +9
We present high spatial resolution images that demonstrate the hot Jupiters WASP-12b and HAT-P-8b orbit the primary star of hierarchical triple star systems. In each case, two dist…
The TRENDS High-Contrast Imaging Survey. IV. The Occurrence Rate of Giant Planets around M-Dwarfs
Benjamin T. Montet, Justin R. Crepp, John Asher Johnson +2
Doppler-based planet surveys have discovered numerous giant planets but are incomplete beyond several AU. At larger star-planet separations, direct planet detection through high-co…
