Analysis of new precision radial velocity (RV) measurements from the Lick Automated Planet Finder (APF) and Keck HIRES have yielded the discovery of three new exoplanet candidates orbiting two nearby K dwarfs not previously reported to have companions (HD 190007 & HD 216520). We also report new velocities from both the APF and the Planet Finder Spectrograph (PFS) for the previously reported planet host stars GJ 686 and HD 180617 and update the corresponding exoplanet orbital models. Of the newly discovered planets, HD 190007 b has a period of 11.72 days, an RV semi-amplitude of K = 5.64$pm$0.55 m s$^{-1}$, a minimum mass of 16.46$pm$1.66 $rm M_{oplus}$, and orbits the slightly metal-rich, active K4 dwarf star HD 190007 (d = 12.7 pc). HD 216520 b has an orbital period of 35.45 days, an RV semi-amplitude of K = 2.28$pm$0.20 m s$^{-1}$, and a minimum mass of 10.26$pm$0.99 $rm M_{oplus}$, while HD 216520 c has an orbital period of P = 154.43 days, an RV semi-amplitude of K = 1.29$pm0.22$ m s$^{-1}$, and a minimum mass of 9.44$pm$1.63 $rm M_{oplus}$. Both of these planets orbit the slightly metal-poor, inactive K0 dwarf star HD 216520 (d = 19.6 pc). We find that our updated best fit models for HD 180617 b and GJ 686 b are in good agreement with the previously published results. For HD 180617 b we obtain an orbital period of 105.91 days, an RV semi-amplitude of K = 2.696$pm$0.22 m s$^{-1}$, and a minimum mass of 2.214$pm$1.05 $rm M_{oplus}$. For GJ 686 b we find the orbital period to be 15.53 days, the RV semi-amplitude to be K = 3.00$pm$0.18 m s$^{-1}$, and the minimum mass to be 6.624$pm$0.432 $rm M_{oplus}$. Using an injection-recovery exercise, we find that HD 190007 b and HD 216520 b are unlikely to have additional planets with masses and orbital periods within a factor of two, in marked contrast to $sim$85% of planets in this mass and period range found with Kepler.
We report the discovery and characterisation of a super-Earth and a sub-Neptune transiting the bright ($K=8.8$), quiet, and nearby (37 pc) M3V dwarf TOI-1266. We validate the planetary nature of TOI-1266 b and c using four sectors of TESS photometry
Planets occur most frequently around cool dwarfs, but only a handful of specific examples are known to orbit the latest-type M stars. Using TESS photometry, we report the discovery of two planets transiting the low-mass star called LP 791-18 (identif
We report the results of the statistical analysis of planetary signals discovered in MOA-II microlensing survey alert system events from 2007 to 2012. We determine the survey sensitivity as a function of planet-star mass ratio, $q$, and projected pla
Keck/HIRES precision radial velocities of HD 207832 indicate the presence of two Jovian-type planetary companions in Keplerian orbits around this G star. The planets have minimum masses of 0.56 and 0.73 Jupiter-masses with orbital periods of ~162 and
Super-Earths, objects slightly larger than Earth and slightly smaller than Uranus, have found a special place in exoplanetary science. As a new class of planetary bodies, these objects have challenged models of planet formation at both ends of the sp
