Coralie radial-velocity search for companions around evolved stars (CASCADES) III. A new Jupiter host-star: in-depth analysis of HD 29399 using TESS data

C. Pezzotti, G. Ottoni, G. Buldgen +11

Context. Increasing the number of detected exoplanets is far from anecdotal, especially for long-period planets that require a long duration of observation. More detections imply a…

Orbital misalignment of the super-Earth Men c with the spin of its star

Vedad Kunovac Hodžić, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Heather M. Cegla +2

Planet-planet scattering events can leave an observable trace of a planet's migration history in the form of orbital misalignment with respect to the the stellar spin axis, which i…

The Curious Case of KOI 4: Confirming Kepler's First Exoplanet

Ashley Chontos, Daniel Huber, David W. Latham +13

The discovery of thousands of planetary systems by Kepler has demonstrated that planets are ubiquitous. However, a major challenge has been the confirmation of Kepler planet candid…

A Hot Saturn Orbiting An Oscillating Late Subgiant Discovered by TESS

Daniel Huber, William J. Chaplin, Ashley Chontos +139

We present the discovery of TOI-197.01, the first transiting planet identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) for which asteroseismology of the host star is po…

Time-Series Analysis of Broadband Photometry of Neptune from K2

Jason F. Rowe, Patrick Gaulme, Jack J. Lissauer +19

We report here on our search for excess power in photometry of Neptune collected by the K2 mission that may be due to intrinsic global oscillations of the planet Neptune. To conduc…

Spin-orbit alignment of exoplanet systems: ensemble analysis using asteroseismology

T. L. Campante, M. N. Lund, J. S. Kuszlewicz +23

The angle between a planet's orbital axis and the spin axis of its parent star is an important diagnostic of planet formation, migration, and tidal evolution. We seek empirical…

The Kepler-454 System: A Small, Not-rocky Inner Planet, a Jovian World, and a Distant Companion

Sara Gettel, David Charbonneau, Courtney D. Dressing +47

Kepler-454 (KOI-273) is a relatively bright (V = 11.69 mag), Sun-like starthat hosts a transiting planet candidate in a 10.6 d orbit. From spectroscopy, we estimate the stellar tem…

KOI-3158: The oldest known system of terrestrial-size planets

T. L. Campante, T. Barclay, J. J. Swift +38

The first discoveries of exoplanets around Sun-like stars have fueled efforts to find ever smaller worlds evocative of Earth and other terrestrial planets in the Solar System. Whil…

An ancient extrasolar system with five sub-Earth-size planets

T. L. Campante, T. Barclay, J. J. Swift +38

The chemical composition of stars hosting small exoplanets (with radii less than four Earth radii) appears to be more diverse than that of gas-giant hosts, which tend to be metal-r…
