    • Kepler-424 b: A "lonely" hot Jupiter that found a companion 

      Endl, Michael; Caldwell, Douglas A.; Barclay, Thomas; Huber, Daniel; Isaacson, Howard; Buchhave, Lars A.; Brugamyer, Erik; Robertson, Paul; Cochran, William D.; MacQueen, Phillip J.; Havel, Mathieu; Lucas, P.W.; Howell, Steve B.; Fischer, Debra; Quintana, Elisa; Ciardi, David R. (2014-11-10)

    • The remarkable solar twin HIP 56948: : a prime target in the quest for other Earths 

      Melendez, Jorge; Bergemann, Maria; Cohen, Judith G.; Endl, Michael; Karakas, Amanda I.; Ramirez, Ivan; Cochran, William D.; Yong, David; MacQueen, Phillip J.; Kobayashi, Chiaki; Asplund, Martin (2012-07-01)
      We study HIP 56948, the best solar twin known to date, to determine with an unparalleled precision how similar is to the Sun in its physical properties, chemical composition and planet architecture. We explore whether the ...

    • Transit timing observations from Kepler - III. : Confirmation of four multiple planet systems by a Fourier-domain study of anticorrelated transit timing variations 

      Steffen, Jason H.; Fabrycky, Daniel C.; Ford, Eric B.; Carter, Joshua A.; Desert, Jean-Michel; Fressin, Francois; Holman, Matthew J.; Lissauer, Jack J.; Moorhead, Althea V.; Rowe, Jason F.; Ragozzine, Darin; Welsh, William F.; Batalha, Natalie M.; Borucki, William J.; Buchhave, Lars A.; Bryson, Steve; Caldwell, Douglas A.; Charbonneau, David; Ciardi, David R.; Cochran, William D.; Endl, Michael; Everett, Mark E.; Gautier, Thomas N.; Gilliland, Ron L.; Girouard, Forrest R.; Jenkins, Jon M.; Horch, Elliott; Howell, Steve B.; Isaacson, Howard; Klaus, Todd C.; Koch, David G.; Latham, David W.; Li, Jie; Lucas, P.W.; MacQueen, Phillip J.; Marcy, Geoffrey W.; McCauliff, Sean; Middour, Christopher K.; Morris, Robert L.; Mullally, Fergal R.; Quinn, Samuel N.; Quintana, Elisa V.; Shporer, Avi; Still, Martin; Tenenbaum, Peter; Thompson, Susan E.; Twicken, Joseph D.; Van Cleve, Jeffery (2012-04)
      We present a method to confirm the planetary nature of objects in systems with multiple transiting exoplanet candidates. This method involves a Fourier-domain analysis of the deviations in the transit times from a constant ...

    • Transit timing observations from Kepler. II : Confirmation of two multiplanet systems via a non-parametric correlation analysis 

      Ford, Eric B.; Fabrycky, Daniel C.; Steffen, Jason H.; Carter, Joshua A.; Fressin, Francois; Holman, Matthew J.; Lissauer, Jack J.; Moorhead, Althea V.; Morehead, Robert C.; Ragozzine, Darin; Rowe, Jason F.; Welsh, William F.; Allen, Christopher; Batalha, Natalie M.; Borucki, William J.; Bryson, Stephen T.; Buchhave, Lars A.; Burke, Christopher J.; Caldwell, Douglas A.; Charbonneau, David; Clarke, Bruce D.; Cochran, William D.; Desert, Jean-Michel; Endl, Michael; Everett, Mark E.; Fischer, Debra A.; Gautier, Thomas N.; Gilliland, Ron L.; Jenkins, Jon M.; Haas, Michael R.; Horch, Elliott; Howell, Steve B.; Ibrahim, Khadeejah A.; Isaacson, Howard; Koch, David G.; Latham, David W.; Li, Jie; Lucas, P.W.; MacQueen, Phillip J.; Marcy, Geoffrey W.; McCauliff, Sean; Mullally, Fergal R.; Quinn, Samuel N.; Quintana, Elisa; Shporer, Avi; Still, Martin; Tenenbaum, Peter; Thompson, Susan E.; Torres, Guillermo; Twicken, Joseph D.; Wohler, Bill (2012-05-10)
      We present a new method for confirming transiting planets based on the combination of transit timing variations (TTVs) and dynamical stability. Correlated TTVs provide evidence that the pair of bodies is in the same physical ...
