We conduct a uniform analysis of the transit timing variations (TTVs) of 145 planets from 55
Kepler multiplanet systems to infer planet masses and eccentricities. Eighty of these planets …

We extract densities and eccentricities of 139 sub-Jovian planets by analyzing transit time
variations (TTVs) obtained by the Kepler mission through Quarter 12. We partially …

We develop and apply methods to extract planet masses and eccentricities from observed
transit timing variations (TTVs). First, we derive simple analytic expressions for the TTV that …

The architectures of multiple planet systems can provide valuable constraints on models of
planet formation, including orbital migration, and excitation of orbital eccentricities and …

We analyze the transit timing variations (TTV) obtained by the Kepler mission for 22 sub-
Jovian planet pairs (19 published, 3 new) that lie close to mean motion resonances. We find …

Characterization of transiting planets with transit timing variations (TTVs) requires
understanding how to translate the observed TTVs into masses and orbital elements of the …

We present a new method for confirming transiting planets based on the combination of
transit timing variations (TTVs) and dynamical stability. Correlated TTVs provide evidence …

Solar system planets move on almost circular orbits. In strong contrast, many massive gas
giant exoplanets travel on highly elliptical orbits, whereas the shape of the orbits of smaller …

We infer dynamical masses in eight multiplanet systems using transit times measured from
Kepler's complete data set, including short-cadence data where available. Of the 18 …

Transit timing variations provide a powerful tool for confirming and characterizing transiting
planets, as well as detecting non-transiting planets. We report the results of an updated …
