    • Doppler observations from Keck Observatory have revealed a triple-planet system orbiting the nearby K4V star, HIP 57274. The inner planet, HIP 57274b, is a super-Earth with M sin i = 11.6 M-circle plus (0.036 M-Jup), an orbital period of 8.135 +/- 0.004 days, and slightly eccentric orbit e = 0.19 +/- 0.1. We calculate a transit probability of 6.5% for the inner planet. The second planet has M sin i = 0.4 M-Jup with an orbital period of 32.0 +/- 0.02 days in a nearly circular orbit (e = 0.05 +/- 0.03). The third planet has M sin i = 0.53 M-Jup with an orbital period of 432 +/- 8 days (1.18 years) and an eccentricity e = 0.23 +/- 0.03. This discovery adds to the number of super-Earth mass planets with M sin i < 12 M-circle plus that have been detected with Doppler surveys. We find that 56% +/- 18% of super-Earths are members of multi-planet systems. This is certainly a lower limit because of observational detectability limits, yet significantly higher than the fraction of Jupiter mass exoplanets, 20% +/- 8%, that are members of Doppler-detected, multi-planet systems.

  • On the Nature of Small Planets around the Coolest Kepler Stars
  • 2012
  • Ingår i: Astrophysical Journal. - 0004-637X. ; 746:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We constrain the densities of Earth-to Neptune-size planets around very cool (T-e = 3660-4660 K) Kepler stars by comparing 1202 Keck/HIRES radial velocity measurements of 150 nearby stars to a model based on Kepler candidate planet radii and a power-law mass-radius relation. Our analysis is based on the presumption that the planet populations around the two sets of stars are the same. The model can reproduce the observed distribution of radial velocity variation over a range of parameter values, but, for the expected level of Doppler systematic error, the highest Kolmogorov-Smirnov probabilities occur for a power-law index alpha approximate to 4, indicating that rocky-metal planets dominate the planet population in this size range. A single population of gas-rich, low-density planets with alpha = 2 is ruled out unless our Doppler errors are >= 5 m s(-1), i.e., much larger than expected based on observations and stellar chromospheric emission. If small planets are a mix of gamma rocky planets (alpha = 3.85) and 1 - gamma gas-rich planets (alpha= 2), then gamma > 0.5 unless Doppler errors are >= 4 m s(-1). Our comparison also suggests that Kepler's detection efficiency relative to ideal calculations is less than unity. One possible source of incompleteness is target stars that are misclassified subgiants or giants, for which the transits of small planets would be impossible to detect. Our results are robust to systematic effects, and plausible errors in the estimated radii of Kepler stars have only moderate impact.
