A Neptune-mass Planet Orbiting the Nearby G Dwarf HD 16417
(2009)
Precision Doppler measurements from an intensive 48 night "Rocky Planet Search" observing campaign on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT) have revealed the presence of a low-mass exoplanet orbiting the G1 dwarf HD 16417. ...
Selection functions in doppler planet searches
(2009)
We present a preliminary analysis of the sensitivity of Anglo-Australian Planet Search data to the orbital parameters of extrasolar planets. To do so, we have developed new tools for the automatic analysis of large-scale ...
The frequency of low-mass exoplanets
(2009)
We report first results from the Anglo-Australian Telescope Rocky Planet Search—an intensive, high-precision Doppler planet search targeting low-mass exoplanets in contiguous 48 night observing blocks. On this run, we ...
The discovery of an M4+T8.5 binary system
(2009)
We report the discovery of a T8.5 dwarf, which is a companion to the M4 dwarf Wolf 940. [Please see original online abstract for complete version with correct notation]
Beyond the Iron Peak: r- and s-process Elemental Abundances in Stars with Planets
(2008)
We present elemental abundances of 118 stars (28 of which are known extrasolar planetary host stars) observed as part of the Anglo-Australian Planet Search. Abundances of O, Mg, Cr, Y, Zr, Ba, Nd, and Eu (along with ...
Fifteen new T dwarfs discovered in the UKIDSS Large Area Survey
(2008)
We present the discovery of fifteen new T2.5-T7.5 dwarfs (with estimated distances between 24–93pc), identified in the first three main data releases of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey. This brings the total number of ...
