Planetary Candidates Observed by Kepler Iv: Planet Sample from Q1-q8 (22 Months)
We provide updates to the Kepler planet candidate sample based upon nearly two years of high-precision photometry (i.e., Q1–Q8). From an initial list of nearly 13,400 threshold crossing events, 480 new host stars are identified from their flux time series as consistent with hosting transiting planets. Potential transit signals are subjected to further analysis using the pixel-level data, which ...
متن کاملThe exoplanet eccentricity distribution from Kepler planet candidates
The eccentricity distribution of exoplanets is known from radial velocity surveys to be divergent from circular orbits beyond 0.1 au. This is particularly the case for large planets where the radial velocity technique is most sensitive. The eccentricity of planetary orbits can have a large effect on the transit probability and subsequently the planet yield of transit surveys. The Kepler mission...
متن کاملMeasurements of Stellar Inclinations for Kepler Planet Candidates
We present an investigation of spin-orbit angles for planetary system candidates reported by Kepler. By combining the rotational period Ps inferred from the flux variation due to starspots and the projected rotational velocity V sin Is and stellar radius obtained by a high resolution spectroscopy, we attempt to estimate the inclination Is of the stellar spin axis with respect to the line-of-sig...
متن کاملConstraining the false positive rate for Kepler planet candidates with multicolour photometry from the GTC
Using the Optical System for Imaging and low Resolution Integrated Spectroscopy (OSIRIS) instrument installed on the 10.4-m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), we acquired multicolour transit photometry of four small (Rp 5 R⊕) short-period (P 6 d) planet candidates recently identified by the Kepler space mission. These observations are part of a programme to constrain the false positive rate for sm...
متن کاملA sample of planetary nebulae observed by HIPPARCOS
By using HIPPARCOS data (magnitudes, parallaxes, proper motions), (1) we determine new values of the apparent luminosity of the central stars of 19 planetary nebulae, (2) we discuss their distance and position on the T/L diagram. By comparison with the distances determined by individual or statistical methods, we see that most of these “ground” distances look overestimated when we trust the HIP...
