Peculiar architectures for the WASP-53 and WASP-81 planet-hosting systems
Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Marion Neveu-VanMalle, Monika Lendl +16
We report the detection of two new systems containing transiting planets. Both were identified by WASP as worthy transiting planet candidates. Radial-velocity observations quickly…
A New Yield Simulator for Transiting Planets and False Positives: Application to the Next Generation Transit Survey
Maximilian N. Günther, Didier Queloz, Brice-Olivier Demory +1
We present a yield simulator to predict the number and characteristics of planets, false positives and false alarms in transit surveys. The simulator is based on a galactic model a…
Rossiter--McLaughlin models and their effect on estimates of stellar rotation, illustrated using six WASP systems
D. J. A. Brown, A. H. M. J. Triaud, A. P. Doyle +12
We present new measurements of the projected spin--orbit angle for six WASP hot Jupiters, four of which are new to the literature (WASP-61, -62, -76, and -78), and two of which…
Kepler-21b: A rocky planet around a V = 8.25 magnitude star
Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Raphaelle D. Haywood, Jeffrey L. Coughlin +36
HD 179070, aka Kepler-21, is a V = 8.25 F6IV star and the brightest exoplanet host discovered by Kepler. An early detailed analysis by Howell et al. (2012) of the first thirteen mo…
The Orbit and Mass of the Third Planet in the Kepler-56 System
Oderah Justin Otor, Benjamin T. Montet, John Asher Johnson +20
While the vast majority of multiple-planet systems have their orbital angular momentum axes aligned with the spin axis of their host star, Kepler-56 is an exception: its two transi…
EELT-HIRES the high-resolution spectrograph for the E-ELT
A. Marconi, P. Di Marcantonio, V. D'Odorico +70
The first generation of E-ELT instruments will include an optical-infrared High Resolution Spectrograph, conventionally indicated as EELT-HIRES, which will be capable of providing…
