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…
The same frequency of planets inside and outside open clusters of stars
Søren Meibom, Guillermo Torres, Francois Fressin +16
Most stars and their planets form in open clusters. Over 95 per cent of such clusters have stellar densities too low (less than a hundred stars per cubic parsec) to withstand inter…
A sub-Mercury-sized exoplanet
Thomas Barclay, Jason F. Rowe, Jack J. Lissauer +55
Since the discovery of the first exoplanet we have known that other planetary systems can look quite unlike our own. However, until recently we have only been able to probe the upp…
Exoplanet Characterization by Proxy: a Transiting 2.15 R_Earth Planet Near the Habitable Zone of the Late K dwarf Kepler-61
Sarah Ballard, David Charbonneau, Francois Fressin +13
We present the validation and characterization of Kepler-61b: a 2.15 R_Earth planet orbiting near the inner edge of the habitable zone of a low-mass star. Our characterization of t…
The Mass of KOI-94d and a Relation for Planet Radius, Mass, and Incident Flux
Lauren M. Weiss, Geoffrey W. Marcy, Jason F. Rowe +15
We measure the mass of a modestly irradiated giant planet, KOI-94d. We wish to determine whether this planet, which is in a 22-day orbit and receives 2700 times as much incident fl…
Spitzer Observations of GJ3470b: a Very Low-density Neptune-size Planet Orbiting a Metal-rich M dwarf
Brice-Olivier Demory, Guillermo Torres, Vasco Neves +13
We present Spitzer/IRAC 4.5-micron transit photometry of GJ3470b, a Neptune-size planet orbiting a M1.5 dwarf star with a 3.3-day period recently discovered in the course of the HA…
