This study validates the planetary nature of an ultra-short-period planet orbiting the M dwarf KOI-4777. The planet, KOI-4777.01, is the smallest validated ultra-short period planet known and no evidence of additional massive companions has been found.
We validate the planetary nature of an ultra-short-period planet orbiting the M dwarf KOI-4777. We use a combination of space-based photometry from Kepler, high-precision, near-infrared Doppler spectroscopy from the Habitable-zone Planet Finder, and adaptive optics imaging to characterize this system. KOI-4777.01 is a Mars-sized exoplanet (R ( p ) = 0.51 +/- 0.03R (circle plus)) orbiting the host star every 0.412 days (similar to 9.9 hr). This is the smallest validated ultra-short period planet known and we see no evidence for additional massive companions using our HPF RVs. We constrain the upper 3 sigma mass to M ( p ) < 0.34 M (circle plus) by assuming the planet is less dense than iron. Obtaining a mass measurement for KOI-4777.01 is beyond current instrumental capabilities.
