Possible Transiting Planet Candidates from the EXPLORE Project
The EXPLORE Project is a series of searches for transiting extra-solar planets using large-format mosaic CCD cameras on 4-m class telescopes. Radial velocity follow-up is done on transiting planet candidates with 8–10m class telescopes. We present a summary of transit candidates from the EXPLORE Project for which we have radial velocity data. 1 2 Mallén-Ornelas et al.
متن کاملA Transiting Planet of a Sun-like Star
A planet transits an 11 magnitude, G1V star in the constellation Corona Borealis. We designate the planet XO-1b, and the star, XO-1, also known as GSC 02041-01657. XO-1 lacks a trigonometric distance; we estimate it to be 200±20 pc. Of the ten stars currently known to host extrasolar transiting planets, the star XO-1 is the most similar to the Sun in its physical characteristics: its radius is ...
متن کاملOGLE-TR-3: A Possible New Transiting Planet
Recently, 59 low-luminosity object transits were reported from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE). Our follow-up low-resolution spectroscopy of 16 candidates provided two objects, OGLE-TR-3 and OGLE-TR-10, which have companions with radii compatible with those of gas-giant planets. Further high-resolution spectroscopy revealed a very low velocity variation (< 500 m s) of the ho...
متن کاملPhysical Parameters of the Parent Star and the Transiting Planet
The Sun-like star HD 209458 harbors a close-in giant planet which transits across the star’s disk, and thus allows an unprecedented access to the basic parameters of the planet, given a certain knowledge of the basic parameters of the star, namely its mass and radius. We present theoretical stellar evolution model calculations for HD 209458 and discuss the uncertainties involved in deriving the...
متن کاملtransiting extrasolar giant planet around the star OGLE - TR - 10
We report a transiting extrasolar giant planet around the star OGLE-TR-10 (orbital period = 3.1 days), which was uncovered as a candidate by the OGLE team in their photometric survey towards the Galactic center (Udalski et al. 2002a). We observed OGLE-TR-10 spectroscopically over a period of two years (2002–2004) using the HIRES instrument with an iodine cell on the Keck I telescope, and measur...
