Outline of Final Research Achievements

Renovating the observing system for automation, we have performed a Doppler survey of about 600 G,K giant stars of intermediate mass of 1.5-5 solar masses in order to reveal the diversity of planetary systems in those stars, with a sensitivity that allows detecting Saturn-mass planets within 3 AU from the central stars. We find 16 planets, three of which are independent confirmation of previous results, and 2 brown dwarfs. Of the 16, one planet orbits the most massive star among planet hosting G,K giants, one does the most distant place, and one is the least massive, which further expands the diversity of planets in the intermediate-mass G, K giant stars. Furthermore, a double planet system that is possibly in mutually retrograde orbits is found. Our findings have advanced our comprehensive understanding of the formation of exoplanets.
