Detection and characterization of an ultra-dense sub-Neptune planet orbiting the Sun-like star HD 119130
R. Luque, G. Nowak, E. Pallé +51
We present the discovery and characterization of a new transiting planet from Campaign 17 of the Kepler extended mission K2. HD 119130 b is a warm sub-Neptune on a 17-d orbit aroun…
HD219666b: A hot-Neptune from TESS Sector 1
M. Esposito, D. J. Armstrong, D. Gandolfi +73
We report on the confirmation and mass determination of a transiting planet orbiting the old and inactive G7 dwarf star HD219666 (Mstar = 0.92 +/- 0.03 MSun, Rstar = 1.03 +/- 0.03…
The Little Dippers: Transits of Star-grazing Exocomets?
Megan Ansdell, Eric Gaidos, Tom L. Jacobs +9
We describe EPIC 205718330 and EPIC 235240266, two systems identified in the K2 data whose light curves contain episodic drops in brightness with shapes and durations similar to th…
Back to "Normal" for the Disintegrating Planet Candidate KIC 12557548 b
Everett Schlawin, Teruyuki Hirano, Hajime Kawahara +5
KIC 12557548 b is first of a growing class of intriguing disintegrating planet candidates, which lose mass in the form of a metal rich vapor that condenses into dust particles. Her…
K2-140b and K2-180b - Characterization of a hot Jupiter and a mini-Neptune from the K2 mission
J. Korth, Sz. Csizmadia, D. Gandolfi +40
We report the independent discovery and characterization of two K2 planets: K2-180b, a mini-Neptune-size planet in an 8.9-day orbit transiting a V = 12.6 mag, metal-poor ([Fe/H] =$…
K2-264: A transiting multi-planet system in the Praesepe open cluster
John H. Livingston, Fei Dai, Teruyuki Hirano +31
Planet host stars with well-constrained ages provide a rare window to the time domain of planet formation and evolution. The NASA K2 mission has enabled the discovery of the vast m…
Orbital characterization of GJ1108A system, and comparison of dynamical mass with model-derived mass for resolved binaries
T. Mizuki, M. Kuzuhara, K. Mede +55
We report an orbital characterization of GJ1108Aab that is a low-mass binary system in pre-main-sequence phase. Via the combination of astrometry using adaptive optics and radial v…
Detection and Doppler monitoring of EPIC 246471491, a system of four transiting planets smaller than Neptune
E. Palle, G. Nowak, R. Luque +43
The Kepler extended mission, also known as K2, has provided the community with a wealth of planetary candidates that orbit stars typically much brighter than the targets of the ori…
K2-295 b and K2-237 b: two transiting hot Jupiters
A. M. S. Smith, Sz. Csizmadia, D. Gandolfi +32
We report the discovery from K2 of two transiting hot Jupiter systems. K2-295 (observed in Campaign 8) is a K5 dwarf which hosts a planet slightly smaller than Jupiter, orbiting wi…
44 Validated Planets from K2 Campaign 10
John H. Livingston, Michael Endl, Fei Dai +31
We present 44 validated planets from the 10 observing campaign of the NASA mission, as well as high resolution spectroscopy and speckle imaging follow-up observa…
Lowest Earth's atmosphere layers probed during a lunar eclipse
Kiyoe Kawauchi, Norio Narita, Bun'ei Sato +5
We report the results of detailed investigation of the Earth's transmission spectra during the lunar eclipse on UT 2011 December 10. The spectra were taken by using the High Disper…
K2-260 b: a hot Jupiter transiting an F star, and K2-261 b: a warm Saturn around a bright G star
M. C. Johnson, F. Dai, A. B. Justesen +45
We present the discovery and confirmation of two new transiting giant planets from the Kepler extended mission K2. K2-260 b is a hot Jupiter transiting a F6V star in K2 Fi…
HD 89345: a bright oscillating star hosting a transiting warm Saturn-sized planet observed by K2
V. Van Eylen, F. Dai, S. Mathur +40
We report the discovery and characterization of HD 89345b (K2-234b; EPIC 248777106b), a Saturn-sized planet orbiting a slightly evolved star. HD 89345 is a bright star ( m…
Super-Earth of 8 Mearth in a 2.2-day orbit around the K5V star K2-216
C. M. Persson, M. Fridlund, O. Barragán +35
The KESPRINT consortium identified K2-216 as a planetary candidate host star in the K2 space mission Campaign 8 field with a transiting super-Earth. The planet has recently been va…
