Journal ArticleDOI

The frequency of low-mass exoplanets

TL;DR: In this paper, the first results from the Anglo-Australian Telescope Rocky Planet Search (AAS) were reported, which targeted 24 bright, nearby and intrinsically stable Sun-like stars selected from the AAS main sample.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spin-Orbit Alignment for the Circumbinary Planet Host Kepler-16 A

TL;DR: In this article, the angular momentum of the primary star was investigated based on Kepler photometry and Keck spectroscopy, and it was shown that the three largest sources of angular momentum (the stellar orbit, the planetary orbit, and the primary's rotation) are all closely aligned.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Rotation of M Dwarfs

TL;DR: In this article, rotational broadening of absorption lines in a sample of 47 nearby, late K- and M-type main-sequence stars is measured from four lines by fitting them with artificially broadened lines from an extremely slowly rotating reference star of similar spectral type.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Third Exoplanetary System with Misaligned Orbital and Stellar Spin Axes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present evidence that the WASP-14 exoplanetary system has misaligned orbital and stellar-rotational axes, with an angle lambda = 33.1 +/- 7.4 deg between their sky projections.
