Kepler Transit Depths Contaminated by a Phantom Star [PDF]
We present ground-based observations from the Discovery Channel Telescope (DCT) of three transits of Kepler-445c---a supposed super-Earth exoplanet with properties resembling GJ 1214b---and demonstrate that the transit depth is approximately 50 percent ...

Revisiting the Transit Timing and Atmosphere Characterization of the Neptune-mass Planet HAT-P-26 b
We present a transit-timing variation (TTV) and planetary atmosphere analysis of the Neptune-mass planet HAT-P-26 b. We present a new set of 13 transit light curves from optical ground-based observations and combine them with light curves from the Wide ...

Revisiting Trans-Arctic Maritime Navigability in 2011–2016 from the Perspective of Sea Ice Thickness
Arctic navigation has become operational in recent decades with the decline in summer sea ice. To assess the navigability of trans-Arctic passages, combined model and satellite sea ice thickness (CMST) data covering both freezing seasons and melting ...

Determination of the size, mass, and density of "exomoons" from photometric transit timing variations [PDF]
Precise photometric measurements of the upcoming space missions allow the size, mass, and density of satellites of exoplanets to be determined. Here we present such an analysis using the photometric transit timing variation ($TTV_p$).

Hypersatellite and satellite transitions in cobalt
An accurate measurement of energy shifts and relative intensities of hypersatellite and satellite transitions in cobalt have been made. The use of radioactive ^(59)Ni, which decays mostly by the nuclear K-electron capture to cobalt and the low-probability processes of ejection of the other K-electron allowed the observation of decays among very pure ...

Characterizing K2 planet discoveries : a super-Earth transiting the bright K dwarf HIP 116454 [PDF]
We report the first planet discovery from the two-wheeled Kepler (K2) mission: HIP 116454 b. The host star HIP 116454 is a bright (V = 10.1, K = 8.0) K1 dwarf with high proper motion and a parallax-based distance of 55.2 ± 5.4 pc.
