Scientific paper

The presence or absence of additional, short-period planets in hot Jupiter systems is an important observational constraint on models of planet formation and dynamical evolution. Among the over 1000 Kepler exoplanet candidates is a large number of hot Jupiter candidates. We present results from a search for additional planets in these systems through a combination of photometric, geometric, and dynamical (TTV) probes. The results of this search may provide useful insight into the histories and orbital architectures of hot Jupiter systems.
