Sloan gi light curves of HAT-TR-205-012

Description:
We derive masses and radii for both components in the single-lined eclipsing binary HAT-TR-205-013, which consists of an F7 V primary and a late M dwarf secondary. The system's period is short, P=2.230736+/-0.000010 days, with an orbit indistinguishable from circular, e=0.012+/-0.021. We demonstrate generally that the surface gravity of the secondary star in a single-lined binary undergoing total eclipses can be derived from characteristics of the light curve and spectroscopic orbit.

Description:
We report the discovery of HAT-P-24b, a transiting extrasolar planet orbiting the moderately bright V=11.818 F8 dwarf star GSC 0774-01441, with a period P=3.3552464+/-0.0000071 days, transit epoch T_c_=2455216.97669+/-0.00024(BJD), and transit duration 3.653+/-0.025hr. The host star has a mass of 1.191+/-0.042M_{sun}_, radius of 1.317+/-0.068R_{sun}_, effective temperature 6373+/-80K, and a low metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.16+/-0.08. The planetary companion has a mass of 0.681+/-0.031M_J_ and radius of 1.243+/-0.072R_J_ yielding a mean density of 0.439+/-0.069g/cm^3^. By repeating our global fits with different parameter sets, we have performed a critical investigation of the fitting techniques used for previous Hungarian-made Automated Telescope planetary discoveries. We find that the system properties are robust against the choice of priors.

Sloan i follow-up light curves of HATS-18

Description:
We report the discovery by the HATSouth network of HATS-18b: a 1.980+/-0.077M_J_, 1.337_-0.049_^+0.102^R_J_ planet in a 0.8378day orbit, around a solar analog star (mass 1.037+/-0.047M_{Sun}_ and radius 1.020_-0.031_^+0.057^R_{Sun}_) with V=14.067+/-0.040mag. The high planet mass, combined with its short orbital period, implies strong tidal coupling between the planetary orbit and the star. In fact, given its inferred age, HATS-18 shows evidence of significant tidal spin up, which together with WASP-19 (a very similar system) allows us to constrain the tidal quality factor for Sun-like stars to be in the range of 6.5<~log_10_(Q^*^/k_2_)<~7 even after allowing for extremely pessimistic model uncertainties. In addition, the HATS-18 system is among the best systems (and often the best system) for testing a multitude of star-planet interactions, be they gravitational, magnetic, or radiative, as well as planet formation and migration theories.

Description:
We report on the discovery of HAT-P-10b, one of the lowest mass (0.487+/-0.018M_J_) transiting extrasolar planets (TEPs) discovered to date by transit searches. HAT-P-10b orbits the moderately bright V=11.89 K dwarf GSC 02340-01714, with a period P=3.7224747+/-0.0000065d, transit epoch T_c_=2454759.68683+/-0.00016(BJD), and duration 0.1090+/-0.0008d. HAT-P-10b has a radius of 1.005^+0.032^_-0.027_R_J_ yielding a mean density of 0.594+/-0.052g/cm^3^. Comparing these observations with recent theoretical models we find that HAT-P-10b is consistent with a ~4.5Gyr, almost pure hydrogen and helium gas giant planet with a 10M_{earth}_ core. With an equilibrium temperature of T_eq_=1020+/-17K, HAT-P-10b is one of the coldest TEPs. Curiously, its Safronov number {Theta}=0.053+/-0.002 falls close to the dividing line between the two suggested TEP populations.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the Sloan Low-mass Wide Pairs of Kinematically Equivalent Stars (SLoWPoKES), a catalog of 1342 very-wide (projected separation >~500AU), low-mass (at least one mid-K to mid-M dwarf component) common proper motion pairs identified from astrometry, photometry, and proper motions in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. A Monte Carlo-based Galactic model is constructed to assess the probability of chance alignment for each pair; only pairs with a probability of chance alignment <=0.05 are included in the catalog.

Description:
We present the Sloan Low-mass Wide Pairs of Kinematically Equivalent Stars (SLoWPoKES)-II catalog of low-mass visual binaries identified from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) by matching photometric distances. The candidate pairs are vetted by comparing the stellar information. The candidate pairs are vetted by comparing the stellar density at their respective Galactic positions to Monte Carlo realizations of a simulated Milky Way. In this way, we are able to identify large numbers of bona fide wide binaries without the need for proper motions. Here, 105537 visual binaries with angular separations of ~1-20" were identified, each with a probability of chance alignment of {<=}5%. This is the largest catalog of bona fide wide binaries to date, and it contains a diversity of systems--in mass, mass ratios, binary separations, metallicity, and evolutionary states--that should facilitate follow-up studies to characterize the properties of M dwarfs and white dwarfs. There is a subtle but definitive suggestion of multiple populations in the physical separation distribution, supporting earlier findings. We suggest that wide binaries are composed of multiple populations, most likely representing different formation modes. There are 141 M7 or later wide binary candidates, representing a seven-fold increase over the number currently known. These binaries are too wide to have been formed via the ejection mechanism. Finally, we found that 6% of spectroscopically confirmed M dwarfs are not included in the SDSS STAR catalog; they are misclassified as extended sources due to the presence of a nearby or partially resolved companion. The SLoWPoKES-II catalog is publicly available to the entire community on the World Wide Web via the Filtergraph data visualization portal.

SLoWPoKES. II. Properties of wide, low-mass binaries
Short Name:
J/AJ/143/67
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report the results from spectroscopic observations of 113 ultra-wide, low-mass binary systems, largely composed of M0-M3 dwarfs, from the SLoWPoKES catalog of common proper motion pairs identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (Dhital et al., 2010, Cat. J/AJ/139/2566). Radial velocities of each binary member were used to confirm that they are comoving and, consequently, to further validate the high fidelity of the SLoWPoKES catalog. Ten stars appear to be spectroscopic binaries based on broad or split spectral features, supporting previous findings that wide binaries are likely to be hierarchical systems. We measured the H{alpha} equivalent width of the stars in our sample and found that components of 81% of the observed pairs have similar H{alpha} levels. The difference in H{alpha} equivalent width among components with similar masses was smaller than the range of H{alpha} variability for individual objects. We confirm that the Lepine et al. (2007ApJ...669.1235L) {zeta}-index traces iso-metallicity loci for most of our sample of M dwarfs. However, we find a small systematic bias in {zeta}, especially in the early-type M dwarfs. We use our sample to recalibrate the definition of {zeta}. While representing a small change in the definition, the new {zeta} is a significantly better predictor of iso-metallicity for the higher-mass M dwarfs.
