Search for (sub)stellar Companions of Exoplanet Hosts by Exploring the Second ESA-Gaia Data Release
We present the latest results of an ongoing multiplicity survey of exoplanet hosts, which was initiated at the Astrophysical Institute and University Observatory Jena, using data from the second data release of the ESA-Gaia mission.

The Demographics of Terrestrial Planets in the Venus Zone
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 ...

Statistical Trends in the Obliquity Distribution of Exoplanet Systems [PDF]
Abstract Important clues to the formation and evolution of planetary systems can be inferred from the stellar obliquity ψ. We study the distribution of obliquities using the California-Kepler Survey and the TEPCat Catalog of Rossiter–McLaughlin (RM) measurements, from which we extract, respectively, 275 and 118 targets.

The observation of exoplanet transit events in China
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 K2 and TESS Synergy. II. Revisiting 26 Systems in the TESS Primary Mission
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

Solar System Planets and Exoplanets
Solar System planets have been studied for centuries, but the observation of exoplanets is only a few decades old. Consequently, knowledge of exoplanets is considerably more limited than Solar System planets. This chapter reviews the essential characteristics of Solar System planets and associated data derived from a variety of observational approaches.

A Candidate High-velocity Exoplanet System in the Galactic Bulge
Abstract We present an analysis of adaptive optics images from the Keck I telescope of the microlensing event MOA-2011-BLG-262. The original discovery paper by Bennett et al. reports two possibilities for the lens system: a nearby gas giant lens with an exomoon companion or a very low-mass star with a planetary companion in the Galactic ...

Tools for Learning—Promoting Reflection for Student Teachers' Development of PCK
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how the coherent integration of three different tools for reflection during a science methods course can contribute to student teachers' planning and enactment of science teaching, that is, their development of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK).
