The CORALIE survey for southern extrasolar planets XVIII. Three new massive planets and two low mass brown dwarfs at separation larger than 5 AU
E. L. Rickman, D. Ségransan, M. Marmier +36
Context. Since 1998, a planet-search around main sequence stars within 50~pc in the southern hemisphere has been carried out with the CORALIE spectrograph at La Silla Observatory.…
A giant impact as the likely origin of different twins in the Kepler-107 exoplanet system
Aldo S. Bonomo, Li Zeng, Mario Damasso +49
Measures of exoplanet bulk densities indicate that small exoplanets with radius less than 3 Earth radii () range from low-density sub-Neptunes containing volatile element…
K2-263b: A 50-day period sub-Neptune with a mass measurement using HARPS-N
A. Mortier, A. S. Bonomo, V. M. Rajpaul +32
This paper reports on the validation and mass measurement of K2-263b, a sub-Neptune orbiting a quiet G9V star. Using K2 data from campaigns C5 and C16, we find this planet to have…
Eyes on K2-3: A system of three likely sub-Neptunes characterized with HARPS-N and HARPS
M. Damasso, A. S. Bonomo, N. Astudillo-Defru +67
M-dwarf stars are promising targets for identifying and characterizing potentially habitable planets. K2-3 is a nearby (45 pc), early-type M dwarf hosting three small transiting pl…

The RoPES project with HARPS and HARPS-N. I. A system of super-Earths orbiting the moderately active K-dwarf HD 176986
A. Suárez Mascareño, J. I. González Hernández, R. Rebolo +12
We report the discovery of a system of two super-Earths orbiting the moderately active K-dwarf HD 176986. This work is part of the RoPES RV program of G- and K-type stars, which co…
The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets. XXXVI. Eight HARPS multi-planet systems hosting 20 super-Earth and Neptune-mass companions
S. Udry, X. Dumusque, C. Lovis +21
We present radial-velocity measurement of eight stars observed with the HARPS Echelle spectrograph mounted on the 3.6-m telescope in La Silla (ESO, Chile). Data span more than ten…
The Kepler-19 system: a thick-envelope super-Earth with two Neptune-mass companions characterized using Radial Velocities and Transit Timing Variations
Luca Malavolta, Luca Borsato, Valentina Granata +36
We report a detailed characterization of the Kepler-19 system. This star was previously known to host a transiting planet with a period of 9.29 days, a radius of 2.2 R and…
Two massive rocky planets transiting a K-dwarf 6.5 parsecs away
Michael Gillon, Brice-Olivier Demory, Valerie Van Grootel +14
HD 219134 is a K-dwarf star at a distance of 6.5 parsecs around which several low-mass planets were recently discovered. The Spitzer space telescope detected a transit of the inner…
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…
A 1.9 Earth radius rocky planet and the discovery of a non-transiting planet in the Kepler-20 system
Lars A. Buchhave, Courtney D. Dressing, Xavier Dumusque +35
Kepler-20 is a solar-type star (V = 12.5) hosting a compact system of five transiting planets, all packed within the orbital distance of Mercury in our own Solar System. A transiti…
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…
