K2-19b and c are in a 3:2 Commensurability but out of Resonance: A Challenge to Planet Assembly by Convergent Migration
Erik A. Petigura, John Livingston, Konstantin Batygin +11
K2-19b and c were among the first planets discovered by NASA's K2 mission and together stand in stark contrast with the physical and orbital properties of the solar system planets.…
Radial Velocity Discovery of an Eccentric Jovian World Orbiting at 18 au
Sarah Blunt, Michael Endl, Lauren M. Weiss +25
Based on two decades of radial velocity (RV) observations using Keck/HIRES and McDonald/Tull, and more recent observations using the Automated Planet Finder, we found that the near…
The Discovery of the Long-Period, Eccentric Planet Kepler-88 d and System Characterization with Radial Velocities and Photodynamical Analysis
Lauren M. Weiss, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric Agol +7
We present the discovery of Kepler-88 d ( days, , ) based on six years of radial veloc…
CKS VIII: Eccentricities of Kepler Planets and Tentative Evidence of a High Metallicity Preference for Small Eccentric Planets
Sean M. Mills, Andrew W. Howard, Erik A. Petigura +3
Characterizing the dependence of the orbital architectures and formation environments on the eccentricity distribution of planets is vital for understanding planet formation. In th…
Discovery of a Third Transiting Planet in the Kepler-47 Circumbinary System
Jerome A. Orosz, William F. Welsh, Nader Haghighipour +16
Of the nine confirmed transiting circumbinary planet systems, only Kepler-47 is known to contain more than one planet. Kepler-47 b (the "inner planet") has an orbital period of 49.…
Long-Period Giant Companions to Three Compact, Multiplanet Systems
Sean M. Mills, Andrew W. Howard, Lauren M. Weiss +7
Understanding the relationship between long-period giant planets and multiple smaller short-period planets is critical for formulating a complete picture of planet formation. This…
