Predictable patterns in planetary transit timing variations and transit duration variations due to exomoons

We present new ways to identify single and multiple moons around extrasolar planets using planetary transit timing variations (TTVs) and transit duration variations (TDVs). For planets with one moon, ...

Parameters, Transit Timing Variations, and Orbital Stability of the

Figure 5. MEGNO stability maps superimposed on an upper mass-limit function of a hypothetical perturber. A MEGNO of around 2 indicates quasi-periodic (regular) orbits. A MEGNO of 5 or larger indicates ...

Prospects for finding new Earths boosted by brand new planet-finding technique

Astronomers from Germany, Bulgaria and Poland have used a completely new technique to find an exotic extrasolar planet. The same approach is sensitive enough to find planets as small as the Earth in ...

Transit Timing Variation of Near-Resonance Planetary Pairs. II. Confirmation of 30 planets in 15 Multiple Planet Systems

Following on from Paper I in our series (Xie 2012), we report the confirmation by Transit Timing Variations (TTVs) of a further 30 planets in 15 multiple planet systems, using the publicly available ...
