HD 21749 is a bright ($V=8.1$ mag) K dwarf at 16 pc known to host an inner terrestrial planet HD 21749c as well as an outer sub-Neptune HD 21749b, both delivered by TESS. Follow-up spectroscopic observations measured the mass of HD 21749b to be $22.7pm2.2 M_{oplus}$ with a density of $7.0^{+1.6}_{-1.3}$ g~cm$^{-3}$, making it one of the densest sub-Neptunes. However, the mass measurement was suspected to be influenced by stellar rotation. Here we present new high-cadence PFS RV data to disentangle the stellar activity signal from the planetary signal. We find that HD 21749 has a similar rotational timescale as the planets orbital period, and the amplitude of the planetary orbital RV signal is estimated to be similar to that of the stellar activity signal. We perform Gaussian Process (GP) regression on the photometry and RVs from HARPS and PFS to model the stellar activity signal. Our new models reveal that HD 21749b has a radius of $2.86pm0.20 R_{oplus}$, an orbital period of $35.6133pm0.0005$ d with a mass of $M_{b}=20.0pm2.7 M_{oplus}$ and a density of $4.8^{+2.0}_{-1.4}$ g~cm$^{-3}$ on an eccentric orbit with $e=0.16pm0.06$, which is consistent with the most recent values published for this system. HD 21749c has an orbital period of $7.7902pm0.0006$ d, a radius of $1.13pm0.10 R_{oplus}$, and a 3$sigma$ mass upper limit of $3.5 M_{oplus}$. Our Monte Carlo simulations confirm that without properly taking stellar activity signals into account, the mass measurement of HD 21749b is likely to arrive at a significantly underestimated error bar.
Nearly 15 years of radial velocity (RV) monitoring and direct imaging enabled the detection of two giant planets orbiting the young, nearby star $beta$ Pictoris. The $delta$ Scuti pulsations of the star, overwhelming planetary signals, need to be car
The Transit Ephemeris Refinement and Monitoring Survey (TERMS) is a project which aims to detect transits of intermediate-long period planets by refining orbital parameters of the known radial velocity planets using additional data from ground based
As part of the Transit Ephemeris Refinement and Monitoring Survey (TERMS), we present new radial velocities and photometry of the HD 192263 system. Our analysis of the already available Keck-HIRES and CORALIE radial velocity measurements together wit
Since the discovery of the transiting super-Earth CoRoT-7b, several investigations have yielded different results for the number and masses of planets present in the system, mainly owing to the stars high level of activity. We re-observed CoRoT-7 in
GJ 1132b, which orbits an M dwarf, is one of the few known Earth-sized planets, and at 12 pc away it is one of the closest known transiting planets. Receiving roughly 19x Earths insolation, this planet is too hot to be habitable but can inform us abo
