What asteroseismology can do for exoplanets: Kepler-410A b is a Small Neptune around a bright star, in an eccentric orbit consistent with low obliquity
Vincent Van Eylen, Mikkel N. Lund, Victor Silva Aguirre +12
We confirm the Kepler planet candidate Kepler-410b (KOI-42b) as a Neptune sized exoplanet on a 17.8 day, eccentric orbit around the bright (Kp = 9.4) star Kepler-410A. This is the…
Identifying new opportunities for exoplanet characterisation at high spectral resolution
Remco J. de Kok, Jayne Birkby, Matteo Brogi +4
[Abridged] Recently, there have been a series of detections of molecules in the atmospheres of extrasolar planets using high spectral resolution (R~100,000) observations, mostly us…
Kepler-63b: A Giant Planet in a Polar Orbit around a Young Sun-like Star
Roberto Sanchis-Ojeda, Joshua N. Winn, Geoffrey W. Marcy +19
We present the discovery and characterization of a giant planet orbiting the young Sun-like star Kepler-63 (KOI-63, , K, $M_\star = 0.98\, M…
Detection of water absorption in the day side atmosphere of HD 189733 b using ground-based high-resolution spectroscopy at 3.2 microns
J. L. Birkby, R. J. de Kok, M. Brogi +4
We report a 4.8 sigma detection of water absorption features in the day side spectrum of the hot Jupiter HD 189733 b. We used high-resolution (R~100,000) spectra taken at 3.2 micro…
Detection of carbon monoxide in the high-resolution day-side spectrum of the exoplanet HD 189733b
Remco J. de Kok, Matteo Brogi, Ignas A. G. Snellen +3
[Abridged] After many attempts over more than a decade, high-resolution spectroscopy has recently delivered its first detections of molecular absorption in exoplanet atmospheres, b…
Detection of molecular absorption in the dayside of exoplanet 51 Pegasi b?
M. Brogi, I. A. G. Snellen, R. J. de Kok +3
In this paper we present ground-based high-resolution spectroscopy of 51 Pegasi using CRIRES at the Very Large Telescope. The system was observed for 3x5 hours at 2.3 μm at a spect…
Low stellar obliquities in compact multiplanet systems
Simon Albrecht, Joshua N. Winn, Geoffrey W. Marcy +3
We measure the sky-projected stellar obliquities (λ) in the multiple-transiting planetary systems KOI-94 and Kepler-25, using the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. In both cases the host…
The Stellar Obliquity and the Long-period planet in the HAT-P-17 Exoplanetary System
Benjamin J. Fulton, Andrew W. Howard, Joshua N. Winn +9
We present the measured projected obliquity -- the sky-projected angle between the stellar spin axis and orbital angular momentum -- of the inner planet of the HAT-P-17 multi-plane…
