    • Kepler-1649b: : An Exo-Venus in the Solar Neighborhood 

      Angelo, Isabel; Rowe, Jason F.; Howell, Steve B.; Quintana, Elisa V.; Still, Martin; Mann, Andrew W.; Burningham, Ben; Barclay, Thomas; Ciardi, David R.; Huber, Daniel (2017-03-17)
      The Kepler mission has revealed that Earth-sized planets are common, and dozens have been discovered to orbit in or near their host star's habitable zone. A major focus in astronomy is to determine which of these exoplanets ...
    • Masses, radii, and orbits of small Kepler planets : The transition from gaseous to rocky planets 

      Marcy, Geoffrey W.; Isaacson, Howard; Howard, Andrew W.; Rowe, Jason F.; Jenkins, Jon M.; Bryson, Stephen T.; Latham, David W.; Howell, Steve B.; Gautier, Thomas N.; Batalha, Natalie M.; Rogers, Leslie; Ciardi, David; Fischer, Debra A.; Gilliland, Ronald L.; Kjeldsen, H.; Christensen-Dalsgaard, J.; Huber, Daniel; Chaplin, William J.; Basu, S.; Buchhave, Lars A.; Quinn, Samuel N.; Borucki, William J.; Koch, David G.; Hunter, Roger; Caldwell, Douglas A.; Van Cleve, Jeffrey; Kolbl, Rea; Weiss, Lauren M.; Petigura, Erik; Seager, Sara; Morton, Timothy; Johnson, John Asher; Ballard, Sarah; Burke, Chris; Cochran, William D.; Endl, Michael; MacQueen, Phillip; Everett, Mark E.; Lissauer, Jack J.; Ford, Eric B.; Torres, Guillermo; Fressin, Francois; Brown, Timothy M.; Steffen, Jason H.; Charbonneau, David; Basri, G.; Sasselov, Dimitar D.; Winn, Joshua; Sanchis-Ojeda, Roberto; Christiansen, Jessie; Adams, Elisabeth; Henze, Christopher; Dupree, Andrea; Fabrycky, Daniel C.; Fortney, Jonathan J.; Tarter, Jill; Holman, Matthew J.; Tenenbaum, Peter; Shporer, Avi; Lucas, P.W.; Welsh, William F.; Orosz, Jerome A.; Bedding, T.R.; Campante, T.L.; Davies, G.R.; Elsworth, Y.; Handberg, R.; Hekker, S.; Karoff, C.; Kawaler, S.D.; Lund, M.N.; Lundkvist, M.; Metcalfe, T.S.; Miglio, A.; Silva Aguirre, V.; Stello, D.; White, T.R.; Boss, Alan; DeVore, E.; Gould, Alan; Prsa, A.; Agol, Eric; Barclay, Thomas; Coughlin, Jeff; Brugamyer, Erik; Mullally, Fergal; Quintana, Elisa V.; Still, Martin; Thompson, Susan E.; Morrison, David; Twicken, Joseph D.; Desert, Jean-Michel; Carter, Josh; Crepp, Justin R.; Hebrard, Guillaume; Santerne, Alexandre; Moutou, Claire; Sobeck, Charlie; Hudgins, Douglas; Haas, Michael R.; Robertson, Paul; Lillo-Box, Jorge; Barrado, David (2014-01-13)
      We report on the masses, sizes, and orbits of the planets orbiting 22 Kepler stars. There are 49 planet candidates around these stars, including 42 detected through transits and 7 revealed by precise Doppler measurements ...
    • A nearby m star with three transiting super-earths discovered by k2 

      Crossfield, Ian J M; Petigura, Erik; Schlieder, Joshua E.; Howard, Andrew W.; Fulton, B. J.; Aller, Kimberly M.; Ciardi, David R.; Lépine, Sébastien; Barclay, Thomas; Pater, Imke De; Kleer, Katherine De; Quintana, Elisa V.; Christiansen, Jessie L.; Schlafly, Eddie; Kaltenegger, Lisa; Crepp, Justin R.; Henning, Thomas; Obermeier, Christian; Deacon, Niall; Weiss, Lauren M.; Isaacson, Howard T.; Hansen, Brad M S; Liu, Michael C.; Greene, Tom; Howell, Steve B.; Barman, Travis; Mordasini, Christoph (2015-05-01)
      Small, cool planets represent the typical end-products of planetary formation. Studying the architectures of these systems, measuring planet masses and radii, and observing these planets' atmospheres during transit directly ...
    • Photometrically derived masses and radii of the planet and star in the TrES-2 system 

      Barclay, T.; Huber, D.; Rowe, Jason F.; Quintana, Elisa V.; Christiansen, Jessie L.; Jenkins, J.M.; Mullally, F.; Seader, S.E.; Tenenbaum, P.; Thompson, S.E.; Fortney, J.J.; Morley, C.V.; Fabrycky, D.C.; Barentsen, G.; Bloemen, S.; Demory, B.-O.; Fulton, B.J.; Shporer, A.; Ragozzine, D. (2012-12-10)
      We measure the mass and radius of the star and planet in the TrES-2 system using 2.7 years of observations by the Kepler spacecraft. The light curve shows evidence for ellipsoidal variations and Doppler beaming on a period ...
    • 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 ...
