55 Cnc radial velocities and photometry

Using two decades of photometry and spectroscopy data, we have measured the rotation of the host star and its solar-like magnetic cycle. Accounting for this cycle in our velocimetric analysis of the system allows us to revise the properties of the outermost giant planet and its four planetary companions.

The innermost planet 55 Cnc e is an unusually close-in super-Earth, whose transits have allowed for detailed follow-up studies. Recent observations favor the presence of a substantial atmosphere yet its composition, and the nature of the planet, remain unknown. We combined our derived planet mass (Mp=8.0+/-0.3M_{Earth}_) with refined measurement of its optical radius derived from HST/STIS observations (Rp=1.88+/-0.03R_{Earth}_ over 530-750nm) to revise the density of 55 Cnc e (rho=6.7+/-0.4g/cm^3^).
