PublicationThe K2 Galactic Archaeology Program Data Release 2: Asteroseismic Results from Campaigns 4, 6, and 7
Studies of Galactic structure and evolution have benefited enormously from Gaia kinematic information, though additional, intrinsic stellar parameters like age...

PublicationThe K2 Galactic Archaeology Program Data Release 3: Age-abundance Patterns in C1-C8 and C10-C18
We present the third and final data release of the K2 Galactic Archaeology Program (K2 GAP) for Campaigns C1-C8 and C10-C18. We provide asteroseismic radius and...

PublicationThe K2-ESPRINT Project I: Discovery of the Disintegrating Rocky Planet K2-22b with a Cometary Head and Leading Tail
We present the discovery of a transiting exoplanet candidate in the K2 Field-1 with an orbital period of 9.1457 hr: K2-22b. The highly variable transit depths...

PublicationThe K2-ESPRINT Project III: A Close-in Super-Earth around a Metal-rich Mid-M Dwarf
We validate a {R}p=2.32+/- 0.24{R}\oplus planet on a close-in orbit (P = 2.260455 ± 0.000041 days) around K2-28 (EPIC 206318379), a metal-rich M4-type dwarf in...

PublicationThe K2-ESPRINT Project IV. A Hot Jupiter in a Prograde Orbit with a Possible Stellar Companion
We report on the detection and early characterization of a hot Jupiter in a three day orbit around K2-34 (EPIC 212110888), a metal-rich F-type star located in...

PublicationThe K2-ESPRINT Project V: A Short-period Giant Planet Orbiting a Subgiant Star*
We report on the discovery and characterization of the transiting planet K2-39b (EPIC 206247743b). With an orbital period of 4.6 days, it is the shortest-period...
