A time-dependent radiative model for the atmosphere of the eccentric transiting planets

N. Iro, D. Deming

We present a time-dependent radiative model for the atmosphere of the transiting planets that take into account the eccentricity of their orbit. We investigate the temporal tempera…

A correlation between the heavy element content of transiting extrasolar planets and the metallicity of their parent stars

Tristan Guillot, Nuno C. Santos, Frédéric Pont +3

Nine extrasolar planets with masses between 110 and 430M are known to transit their star. The knowledge of their masses and radii allows an estimate of their composition, but uncer…

A Time-Dependent Radiative Model of HD209458b

N. Iro, B. Bezard, T. Guillot

We present a time-dependent radiative model of the atmosphere of HD209458b and investigate its thermal structure and chemical composition. In a first step, the stellar heating prof…

Search For Exospheric Signatures From Transiting Planets

N. Iro, A. Coustenis, C. Moutou +3

We searched for spectral signatures from the exosphere of HD209458 in the UV and the near-IR with UVES and ISAAC at the VLT. We looked in particular for the helium absorption featu…

A Time-Dependent Model of HD209458b

N. Iro, B. Bezard, T. Guillot

We developed a time-dependent radiative model for the atmosphere of HD209458b to investigate its thermal structure and chemical composition. Time-dependent temperature profiles wer…
