Gaia Data Release 2
- A. Brown, A. Vallenari, T. Zwitter
- PhysicsAstronomy & Astrophysics
- 25 April 2018
Context. The second data release of the Gaia mission (DR2) includes an advance catalogue of variable stars. The classifications of these stars are based on sparse photometry from the first 22 months…
Detection of Thermal Emission from an Extrasolar Planet
- D. Charbonneau, L. Allen, A. Sozzetti
- Physics, Geology
- 21 March 2005
We present Spitzer Space Telescope infrared photometric time series of the transiting extrasolar planet system TrES-1. The data span a predicted time of secondary eclipse, corresponding to the…
Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS)

- Physics, GeologyAstronomical Telescopes and Instrumentation
- 1 May 2009
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS ) will search for planets transiting bright and nearby stars. TESS has been selected by NASA for launch in 2017 as an Astrophysics Explorer mission.…
IMPROVED SPECTROSCOPIC PARAMETERS FOR TRANSITING PLANET HOSTS
- G. Torres, D. Fischer, Mit
- Physics, Geology
- 6 August 2012
We report homogeneous spectroscopic determinations of the effective temperature, metallicity, and projected rotational velocity for the host stars of 56 transiting planets. Our analysis is based…
HD 147506b: A supermassive planet in an eccentric orbit transiting a bright star
We report the discovery of a massive (M_p = 9.04 ± 0.50 M_J) planet transiting the bright (V = 8.7) F8 star HD 147506, with an orbital period of 5.63341 ± 0.00013 days and an eccentricity of e =…
TrES-1: The Transiting Planet of a Bright K0 V Star
- R. Alonso, T. Brown, C. I. O. Technology.
- Physics, Geology
- 23 August 2004
We report the detection of a transiting Jupiter-sized planet orbiting a relatively bright (V = 11.79) K0 V star. We detected the transit light-curve signature in the course of the TrES multisite…
The PLATO 2.0 mission
PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA’s M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it addresses…
Improving Stellar and Planetary Parameters of Transiting Planet Systems: The Case of TrES-2
- A. Sozzetti, G. Torres, C. I. O. Technology.
- Physics, Geology
- 23 April 2007
We report on a spectroscopic determination of the atmospheric parameters and chemical abundance of the parent star of the recently discovered transiting planet TrES-2. A detailed LTE analysis of a…
The GAPS Programme with HARPS-N at TNG - XIV. Investigating giant planet migration history via improved eccentricity and mass determination for 231 transiting planets
- A. Bonomo, S. Desidera, G. Scandariato
- Geology, Physics
- 2 April 2017
We carried out a Bayesian homogeneous determination of the orbital parameters of 231 transiting giant planets (TGPs) that are alone or have distant companions; we employed differential evolution…
The Revised TESS Input Catalog and Candidate Target List
- K. Stassun, R. Oelkers, J. Winn
- PhysicsThe Astronomical Journal
- 25 May 2019
We describe the catalogs assembled and the algorithms used to populate the revised TESS Input Catalog (TIC), based on the incorporation of the Gaia second data release. We also describe a revised…
