Radial velocities for 61 Vir

DOI

We present precision radial velocity data that reveal a multiple exoplanet system orbiting the bright nearby G5V star 61 Virginis. Our 4.6 years of combined Keck/HIRES and Anglo-Australian Telescope precision radial velocities indicate the hitherto unknown presence of at least three planets orbiting this well-studied star. These planets are all on low-eccentricity orbits with periods of 4.2, 38.0, and 124.0 days, and projected masses (Msini) of 5.1, 18.2, and 24.0M_{earth}_, respectively. Test integrations of systems consistent with the radial velocity data suggest that the configuration is dynamically stable.
