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…
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] =$…
TESS's first planet: a super-Earth transiting the naked-eye star Mensae
D. Gandolfi, O. Barragan, J. Livingston +29
We report on the confirmation and mass determination of Pi Men c, the first transiting planet discovered by NASA's TESS space mission. Pi Men is a naked-eye (V=5.65 mag), quiet G0…
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…
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…
The GTC exoplanet transit spectroscopy survey IX. Detection of Haze, Na, K, and Li in the super-Neptune WASP-127b
G. Chen, E. Palle, L. Welbanks +9
Exoplanets with relatively clear atmospheres are prime targets for detailed studies of chemical compositions and abundances in their atmospheres. Alkali metals have long been sugge…
Mass determination of the 1:3:5 near-resonant planets transiting GJ 9827 (K2-135)
J. Prieto-Arranz, E. Palle, D. Gandolfi +38
Aims. GJ 9827 (K2-135) has recently been found to host a tightly packed system consisting of three transiting small planets whose orbital periods of 1.2, 3.6, and 6.2 days are near…
K2-155: A Bright Metal-Poor M Dwarf with Three Transiting Super-Earths
Teruyuki Hirano, Fei Dai, John H. Livingston +32
We report on the discovery of three transiting super-Earths around K2-155 (EPIC 210897587), a relatively bright early M dwarf ( mag) observed during Campaign 13 of the NAS…
