Evidence for Low-level Dynamical Excitation in Near-resonant Exoplanet Systems

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The geometries of near-resonant planetary systems offer a relatively pristine window into the initial conditions of exoplanet systems. Given that near-resonant systems have likely experienced minimal dynamical disruptions, the spin–orbit orientations of ...

The multiplicity of exoplanet host stars - New low-mass stellar companions of the exoplanet host stars HD125612 and HD212301

open access: yes, 2008
Aims: We present new results from our ongoing multiplicity study of exoplanet host stars, carried out with SofI/NTT. We provide the most recent list of confirmed binary and triple star systems that harbor exoplanets.

Exoplanet albedo spectra and colors as a function of planet phase, separation, and metallicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
First generation optical coronagraphic telescopes will obtain images of cool gas and ice giant exoplanets around nearby stars. The albedo spectra of exoplanets at planet-star separations larger than about 1 AU are dominated by reflected light to beyond 1

The observation of exoplanet transit events in China

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
We have carried out a research project on the exoplanet transit events at Yunnan Observatory. By using CCD cameras attached to 1m telescope of Yunnan Observatory and 85cm telescope of Xinglong station, NAOC, a group of exoplanet systems with transit ...

The Demographics of Terrestrial Planets in the Venus Zone

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Understanding the physical characteristics of Venus, including its atmosphere, interior, and its evolutionary pathway with respect to Earth, remains a vital component for terrestrial planet evolution models and the emergence and/or decline of planetary ...

Observations of Extrasolar Planets During the non-Cryogenic Spitzer Space Telescope Mission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Precision infrared photometry from Spitzer has enabled the first direct studies of light from extrasolar planets, via observations at secondary eclipse in transiting systems.

Gaia astrometry and exoplanetary science: DR2, (E)DR3, and beyond

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Physique, 2023
I review the recent impact of Gaia astrometry in the exoplanet field, both in terms of characterization of the orbits and masses of planetary systems and the properties of their host stars.

Extrasolar planets in stellar multiple systems

open access: yes, 2012
Analyzing exoplanets detected by radial velocity or transit observations, we determine the multiplicity of exoplanet host stars in order to study the influence of a stellar companion on the properties of planet candidates.

The NASA Exoplanet Archive and Exoplanet Follow-up Observing Program: Data, Tools, and Usage

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The NASA Exoplanet Archive (NEA) and the Exoplanet Follow-up Observing Program service are two widely used resources for the exoplanet community. The NEA provides a complete and accurate accounting of exoplanetary systems published by NASA missions and ...

The K2 and TESS Synergy. II. Revisiting 26 Systems in the TESS Primary Mission

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The legacy of NASA’s K2 mission has provided hundreds of transiting exoplanets that can be revisited by new and future facilities for further characterization, with a particular focus on studying the atmospheres of these systems. However, the majority of
