Kepler Planet-Detection Mission: Introduction and First Results
- W. Borucki, D. Koch, +68 authors A. Prša
- Geology, Medicine
- Science
- 19 February 2010
Detecting Distant Planets More than 400 planets have been detected outside the solar system, most of which have masses similar to that of the gas giant planet, Jupiter. Borucki et al. (p. 977,… Expand
Architecture and Dynamics of Kepler's Candidate Multiple Transiting Planet Systems
- J. Lissauer, D. Ragozzine, +22 authors D. Sasselov
- Physics
- 2 February 2011
About one-third of the ~1200 transiting planet candidates detected in the first four months of Kepler data are members of multiple candidate systems. There are 115 target stars with two candidate… Expand
Characteristics of planetary candidates observed by Kepler, II: Analysis of the first four months of data
- W. Borucki, D. Koch, +63 authors L. Walkowicz
- Physics
- 2 February 2011
On 2011 February 1 the Kepler mission released data for 156,453 stars observed from the beginning of the science observations on 2009 May 2 through September 16. There are 1235 planetary candidates… Expand
Kepler Mission Design, Realized Photometric Performance, and Early Science
- D. Koch, W. Borucki, +44 authors Hayley Wu
- Physics
- 2 January 2010
The Kepler Mission, launched on 2009 March 6, was designed with the explicit capability to detect Earth-size planets in the habitable zone of solar-like stars using the transit photometry method.… Expand
Variable Stars in Galactic Globular Clusters
- C. Clement, A. Muzzin, +7 authors H. S. Hogg
- Physics
- 1 August 2001
Based on a search of the literature up to 2001 May, the number of known variable stars in Galactic globular clusters is approximately 3000. Of these, more than 2200 have known periods and the… Expand
A closely packed system of low-mass, low-density planets transiting Kepler-11
- J. Lissauer, D. Fabrycky, +36 authors J. Steffen
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 1 February 2011
When an extrasolar planet passes in front of (transits) its star, its radius can be measured from the decrease in starlight and its orbital period from the time between transits. Multiple planets… Expand
Planet Occurrence within 0.25 AU of Solar-Type Stars from Kepler
We report the distribution of planets as a function of planet radius, orbital period, and stellar effective temperature for orbital periods less than 50 days around solar-type (GK) stars. These… Expand
KEPLER'S FIRST ROCKY PLANET: KEPLER-10b*
- N. Batalha, W. Borucki, +74 authors High Altitude Observatory
- Physics
- 3 February 2011
NASA's Kepler Mission uses transit photometry to determine the frequency of Earth-size planets in or near the habitable zone of Sun-like stars. The mission reached a milestone toward meeting that… Expand
Revised Stellar Properties of Kepler Targets for the Quarter 1-16 Transit Detection Run
- D. Huber, V. S. Aguirre, +19 authors D. Stello
- Physics
- 2 December 2013
We present revised properties for 196,468 stars observed by the NASA Kepler mission and used in the analysis of Quarter 1-16 (Q1-Q16) data to detect and characterize transiting planets. The catalog… Expand
THE MASS OF KOI-94d AND A RELATION FOR PLANET RADIUS, MASS, AND INCIDENT FLUX*
We measure the mass of a modestly irradiated giant planet, KOI-94d. We wish to determine whether this planet, which is in a 22 day orbit and receives 2700 times as much incident flux as Jupiter, is… Expand
