A short-period super-Earth orbiting the M2.5 dwarf GJ 3634

We report on the detection of GJ 3634b, a super-Earth of mass m sin i = 7.0[+0.9 over -0.8] M[subscript ⊙] and period P = 2.64561 ± 0.00066 day. Its host star is a M2.5 dwarf, has a mass of 0.45 ± 0.05 M[subscript ⊙], a radius of 0.43 ± 0.03 R[subscript ⊙] and lies 19.8 ± 0.6 pc away from our Sun. T...
