Three planets orbiting Wolf 1061

We use archival HARPS spectra to detect three planets orbiting the M3 dwarf Wolf 1061 (GJ 628). We detect a 1.36 M⊕ minimum-mass planet with an orbital period P = 4.888 d (Wolf 1061b), a 4.25 M⊕ minimum-mass planet with orbital period P = 17.867 d (Wolf 1061c), and a likely 5.21 M⊕ minimum-mass planet with orbital period P = 67.274 d (Wolf 1061d). All of the planets are of sufficiently low mass that they may be rocky in nature. The 17.867 d planet falls within the habitable zone for Wolf 1061 and the 67.274 d planet falls just outside the outer boundary of the habitable zone. There are no signs of activity observed in the bisector spans, cross-correlation full-width-half-maxima, Calcium H & K indices, NaD indices, or Hα indices near the planetary periods. We use custom methods to generate a cross-correlation template tailored to the star. The resulting velocities do not suffer the strong annual variation observed in the HARPS DRS velocities. This differential technique should deliver better exploitation of the archival HARPS data for the detection of planets at extremely low amplitudes.
