Planetary Candidates Observed by Kepler. VII. The First Fully Uniform Catalog Based on The Entire 48 Month Dataset (Q1-Q...
...Published in arXiv preprint arXiv:1512.06149
We present the seventh Kepler planet candidate catalog, which is the first to be based on the entire, uniformly processed, 48 month Kepler dataset. This is the first fully automated catalog, employing robotic vetting procedures to uniformly evaluate every periodic signal detected by the Q1-Q17 Data Release 24 (DR24) Kepler pipeline. While we priori...
Terrestrial planet occurrence rates for the Kepler GK dwarf sample
...Published in The Astrophysical Journal
We measure planet occurrence rates using the planet candidates discovered by the Q1-Q16 Kepler pipeline search. This study examines planet occurrence rates for the Kepler GK dwarf target sample for planet radii, $0.75\;\ leqslant\; $ $R _ \ rm p $ $\;\ leqslant $2.5$R _ \ oplus $, and orbital periods, $50\;\ leqslant $ $P _ \ mathrm orb $ $\ leqsla...

Validation of Kepler's Multiple Planet Candidates. III: Light Curve Analysis & Announcement of Hundreds of New Multi-pla...
...
The Kepler mission has discovered over 2500 exoplanet candidates in the first two years of spacecraft data, with approximately 40% of them in candidate multi-planet systems. The high rate of multiplicity combined with the low rate of identified false-positives indicates that the multiplanet systems contain very few false-positive signals due to oth...

MOST observations of the roAp stars HD 9289, HD 99563, and HD 134214
...Published in ScienceOpen Astronomy & Astrophysics
We report on the analysis of high-precision space-based photometry of the roAp (rapidly oscillating Ap) stars HD 9289, HD 99563, and HD 134214. All three stars were observed by the MOST satellite for more than 25 days, allowing unprecedented views of their pulsation. We find previously unknown candidate frequencies in all three stars. We establish ...
MOST photometry of the roAp star 10 Aquilae
...Published in ScienceOpen Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. We present 31.2 days of nearly continuous MOST photometry of the rapidly oscillating Ap star 10 Aql. Aims. The goal was to provide an unambiguous frequency identification for this little studied star, as well as to discuss the detected frequencies in the context of magnetic models and analyze the influence of the magnetic field on the puls...
MOST photometry of the RRd Lyrae variable AQ Leo: two radial modes, 32 combination frequencies and beyond
...Published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
Highly precise and nearly uninterrupted optical photometry of the RR Lyrae star AQ Leo was obtained with the MOST (Microvariability and Oscillations of Stars) satellite over 34.4 d in 2005 February–March. AQ Leo was the first known double-mode RR Lyrae pulsator (RRd star). Three decades after its discovery, MOST observations have revealed that AQ L...
