The Pictoris b Hill sphere transit campaign. Paper II: Searching for the signatures of the Pictoris exoplanets through time delay analysis of the Scuti pulsations
Sebastian Zieba, Konstanze Zwintz, Matthew Kenworthy +34
The Pictoris system is the closest known stellar system with directly detected gas giant planets, an edge-on circumstellar disc, and evidence of falling sublimating bodies and…
The Pictoris b Hill sphere transit campaign. Paper I: Photometric limits to dust and rings
M. A. Kenworthy, S. N. Mellon, J. I. Bailey +33
Photometric monitoring of Beta Pictoris in 1981 showed anomalous fluctuations of up to 4% over several days, consistent with foreground material transiting the stellar disk. The su…
Bright Southern Variable Stars in the bRing Survey
Samuel N. Mellon, Eric E. Mamajek, Remko Stuik +9
Besides monitoring the bright star Pic during the near transit event for its giant exoplanet, the Pictoris b Ring (bRing) observatories at Siding Springs Observatory, Austr…
Revisiting the pulsational characteristics of the exoplanet host star Pictoris
K. Zwintz, D. R. Reese, C. Neiner +22
Exoplanet properties crucially depend on their host stars' parameters. In case the exoplanet host star shows pulsations, asteroseismology can be used for an improved description of…
Discovery of δ Scuti Pulsations in the Young Hybrid Debris Disk Star HD 156623
Samuel N. Mellon, Eric E. Mamajek, Konstanze Zwintz +11
The bRing robotic observatory network was built to search for circumplanetary material within the transiting Hill sphere of the exoplanet Pic b across its bright host star …
bRing: An observatory dedicated to monitoring the Pictoris b Hill sphere transit
R. Stuik, J. I. Bailey, P. Dorval +8
Aims. We describe the design and first light observations from the Pictoris b Ring ("bRing") project. The primary goal is to detect photometric variability from the young star…
Angular Momentum Evolution of Young Stars in the Nearby Scorpius-Centaurus OB Association
Samuel N. Mellon, Eric E. Mamajek, Thomas E. Oberst +1
We report the results of a study of archival SuperWASP light curves for stars in Scorpius-Centaurus (Sco-Cen), the nearest OB association. We use SuperWASP time-series photometry t…
KELT-4Ab: An inflated Hot Jupiter transiting the bright (V~10) component of a hierarchical triple
Jason D. Eastman, Thomas G. Beatty, Robert J. Siverd +42
We report the discovery of KELT-4Ab, an inflated, transiting Hot Jupiter orbiting the brightest component of a hierarchical triple stellar system. The host star is an F star with $…
KELT-7b: A hot Jupiter transiting a bright V=8.54 rapidly rotating F-star
Allyson Bieryla, Karen Collins, Thomas G. Beatty +31
We report the discovery of KELT-7b, a transiting hot Jupiter with a mass of MJ, radius of RJ, and an orbital period of $2.7347749 \pm 0.000…
KELT-6b: A P~7.9 d Hot Saturn Transiting a Metal-Poor Star with a Long-Period Companion
Karen A. Collins, Jason D. Eastman, Thomas G. Beatty +39
We report the discovery of KELT-6b, a mildly-inflated Saturn-mass planet transiting a metal-poor host. The initial transit signal was identified in KELT-North survey data, and the…
