Kepler-102: masses and compositions for a super-Earth and sub-Neptune orbiting an active star
Radial velocity (RV) measurements of transiting multiplanet systems allow us to understand
the densities and compositions of planets unlike those in the solar system. Kepler-102 …

Kepler-93b: a terrestrial world measured to within 120 km, and a test case for a new Spitzer observing mode
We present the characterization of the Kepler-93 exoplanetary system, based on three years
of photometry gathered by the Kepler spacecraft. The duration and cadence of the Kepler …

Kepler-11 is a solar twin: revising the masses and radii of benchmark planets via precise stellar characterization
The six planets of the Kepler-11 system are the archetypal example of a population of
surprisingly low-density transiting planets revealed by the Kepler mission. We have …

The Kepler-19 system: a transiting 2.2 R⊕ planet and a second planet detected via transit timing variations
We present the discovery of the Kepler-19 planetary system, which we first identified from a
9.3 day periodic transit signal in the Kepler photometry. From high-resolution spectroscopy …
