Validating AU Microscopii d with Transit Timing Variations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
AU Mic is a young (22 Myr), nearby exoplanetary system that exhibits excess transit timing variations (TTVs) that cannot be accounted for by the two known transiting planets nor stellar activity.

First results of the Kourovka Planet Search: discovery of transiting exoplanet candidates in the first three target fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present the first results of our search for transiting exoplanet candidates as part of the Kourovka Planet Search (KPS) project. The primary objective of the project is to search for new hot Jupiters which transit their host stars, mainly in the ...
