Detection of the secondary eclipse of WASP-10b in the Ks-band

Patricia Cruz, David Barrado, Jorge Lillo-Box +5

WASP-10b, a non-inflated hot Jupiter, was discovered around a K-dwarf in a near circular orbit (). Since its discovery in 2009, different published parameters for this…

Kepler-432 b: a massive planet in a highly eccentric orbit transiting a red giant

Simona Ciceri, Jorge Lillo-Box, John Southworth +3

We report the first disclosure of the planetary nature of Kepler-432 b (aka Kepler object of interest KOI-1299.01). We accurately constrained its mass and eccentricity by high-prec…

Radial velocity confirmation of Kepler-91 b. Additional evidence of its planetary nature using the Calar Alto/CAFE instrument

J. Lillo-Box, D. Barrado, Th. Henning +6

The object transiting the star Kepler-91 was recently assessed as being of planetary nature. The confirmation was achieved by analysing the light-curve modulations observed in the…

High-resolution imaging of planet host candidates. A comprehensive comparison of different techniques

J. Lillo-Box, D. Barrado, H. Bouy

The Kepler mission has discovered thousands of planet candidates. Currently, some of them have already been discarded; more than 200 have been confirmed by follow-up observations,…

Gas and dust in the Beta Pictoris Moving Group as seen by the Herschel Space Observatory

P. Riviere-Marichalar, D. Barrado, B. Montesinos +11

Context. Debris discs are thought to be formed through the collisional grinding of planetesimals, and can be considered as the outcome of planet formation. Understanding the proper…

WTS-2 b: a hot Jupiter orbiting near its tidal destruction radius around a K-dwarf

J. L. Birkby, M. Cappetta, P. Cruz +34

We report the discovery of WTS-2 b, an unusually close-in 1.02-day hot Jupiter (Mp=1.12MJ, Rp=1.363RJ) orbiting a K2V star, which has a possible gravitationally-bound M-dwarf compa…
