SuperWASP - North Extrasolar Planet Candidates . Candidates from Fields 17 hr < RA
We have performed photometric observations of nearly 7 million stars with 8 < V < 15 with the SuperWASP-North instrument from La Palma between 2004 May–September. Fields in the RA range 17–18 hr, yielding over 185,000 stars with sufficient quality data, have been searched for transits using a modified box least-squares (BLS) algorithm. We find a total of 58 initial transiting candidates which h...
متن کاملThe Parent Stars of New Extrasolar Planet System Candidates
Recent study of the stars Gliese 614, HR 7875, HR 810, and HR 5586, and Gliese 876 has found evidence of orbiting planetary companions. This research examines data on the ages and temperatures for these stars, and discusses the implications that this data have for the formation and evolution of planets. In the process of this study, it was found that Gliese 876 is a variable, suggesting the pos...
متن کاملAbout putative Neptune-like extrasolar planetary candidates
Context. We re-analyze the precision radial velocity (RV) data of HD 208487, HD 190360, HD 188015 and HD 114729. These stars are supposed to host Jovian companions in long-period orbits. Aims. We test a hypothesis that the residuals of the 1-planet model of the RV or an irregular scatter of the measurements about the synthetic RV curve may be explained by the existence of additional planets in ...
متن کاملThe Mass Distribution of Extrasolar Planet-candidates and Spectroscopic-binary Low-mass Companions
Spectroscopic orbits have been reported for nine unseen companions orbiting solartype stars with minimum possible masses in the range 0.5 to 10 Jupiter masses. We compare the mass distribution of these nine planet candidates with the distribution of low-mass secondaries in spectroscopic binaries. Although we still have only a very small number of systems, the two distributions suggest two disti...
متن کاملTesting Blend Scenarios for Extrasolar Transiting Planet Candidates . Ii . — Ogle - Tr - 56
We re-examine the photometric and spectroscopic evidence available for the star OGLE-TR-56, recently discovered to harbor a giant planet presenting transits and orbiting with a period of 1.21 days. We investigate the possibility that the observational signatures reported might be the result of “blending” with the light of an eclipsing binary along the same line of sight. Using techniques develo...
