Lars A. Buchhave,Lars A. Buchhave,Gáspár Á. Bakos,Joel D. Hartman,Guillermo Torres,Gábor L. Kovács,D. W. Latham,Robert W. Noyes,Gil Esquerdo,Mark E. Everett,Andrew W. Howard,G. W. Marcy,Debra A. Fischer,John Asher Johnson,Johannes Andersen,Gábor Fűrész,G. Perumpilly,Dimitar Sasselov,Robert P. Stefanik,B. Béky,J. Lázár,I. Papp,P. Sári +22 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the discovery of a transiting extrasolar planet orbiting the V = 10.8 mag F8 dwarf GSC 2792-01700, with a period P = 2.775960 ± 0.000003 days, transit epoch T_c = 2455027.
Journal ArticleDOI

Drake Deming,Sara Seager,Joshua N. Winn,E. Miller-Ricci,M. Clampin,Don J. Lindler,Thomas P. Greene,David Charbonneau,Greg Laughlin,George R. Ricker,D. W. Latham,Kimberly Ennico +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the prospects for an all-sky transit survey targeted to the brightest stars, that would find the most favorable cases for photometric and spectroscopic characterization using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

TL;DR: The Kepler mission is performing at the level required to detect Earth-size planets orbiting solar-type stars, including data for the previously known giant transiting exoplanet HAT-P-7b, which shows a smooth rise and fall of light from the planet as it orbits its star, punctuated by a drop when the planet passes behind its star.
