The Core Accretion Model Predicts Few Jovian-Mass Planets Orbiting Red Dwarfs (2004, methodology): “…shifting our view of extrasolar planets from an anecdotal collection of individual systems (e.g., 51 Peg,u And, or 47 UMa) to a fuller statistical census in which categories and populations of planets can be clearly delineated (e.g., Marcy & Butler 1998; Marcy et al. 2000, 2003; Udry et al. 2003).”
The XO Project: Searching for Transiting Extrasolar Planet Candidates (2005, methodology): “Pepper et al. (2003) formalize the optimization of systems designed to find THJs and have selected a 2-inch diameter telescope with a 4kx4k sensor as best for a 2π steradian survey of stars with V. 10.”

HATNet Field G205: Follow-Up Observations of 28 Transiting-Planet candidates and Confirmation of the Planet HAT-P-8b (2008, background): “We soon learned that the sample was dominated by systems in- volving eclipsing binaries (Latham 2003).”
Statistical properties of exoplanets. III. Planet properties and stellar multiplicity (2004, background): “The efficiency of the Kozai migration is, however, fairly independent of the planet mass, and this mechanism will work for planets of relatively large masses (Wu 2003).”
How Dry is the Brown Dwarf Desert? Quantifying the Relative Number of Planets, Brown Dwarfs, and Stellar Companions around Nearby Sun-like Stars (2004, methodology): “In Lineweaver et al. (2003) we describe a crude method for making a completeness correction for the lower right corner of the solid rectangle falling within the “Being Detected” region.”
Toward a Deterministic Model of Planetary Formation. II. The Formation and Retention of Gas Giant Planets around Stars with a Range of Metallicities (2004, methodology): “Subject headinggs: planetary systems: formation — solar system: formation — stars: statistics”
Five New Multicomponent Planetary Systems (2005, background): “…the planets in multiplanet systems shape the final configuration of the system and shed light on the dissipative medium when the interactions occurred (Bryden et al. 2000; Rivera & Lissauer 2001; Laughlin & Chambers 2001; Lee & Peale 2002; Chiang & Murray 2002; Ford et al. 2003; Ida & Lin 2004).”
TEN NEW AND UPDATED MULTIPLANET SYSTEMS AND A SURVEY OF EXOPLANETARY SYSTEMS (2008, background): “…systems also provide hints about the wide distribution of exoplanet ec- centricities and we are beginning to identify different processes that drive some planets to large eccentricities, while damping others to moderate and low eccentricities (Murray 2003; Barnes & Quinn 2004).”
Dynamical Outcomes of Planet-Planet Scattering (2007, background): “Previous studies have investigated gas free systems with two planets around a central star extensively (Rasio & Ford 1996; Ford et al. 2001, 2003; Ford & Rasio 2007) and have also begun to investigate the dynamics of two planets in the presence of a gas disk by using simplified prescriptions for…”
