ON THE RADIAL VELOCITY DETECTION OF ADDITIONAL PLANETS IN TRANSITING, SLOWLY ROTATING M-DWARF SYSTEMS: THE CASE OF GJ 1132
Abstract
M-dwarfs are known to commonly host high-multiplicity planetary systems. Therefore, M-dwarf planetary systems with a known transiting planet are expected to contain additional small planets (rp ≤ 4 R⊕, mp ≲ 20 M⊕) that are not seen in transit. In this study, we investigate the effort required to detect such planets using precision velocimetry around the sizable subset of M-dwarfs that are slowly rotating (Prot ≳ 40 days), and hence more likely …
