Identifying new opportunities for exoplanet characterisation at high spectral resolution
Remco J. de Kok, Jayne Birkby, Matteo Brogi +4
[Abridged] Recently, there have been a series of detections of molecules in the atmospheres of extrasolar planets using high spectral resolution (R~100,000) observations, mostly us…
Analysis and interpretation of 15 quarters of Kepler data of the disintegrating planet KIC 12557548 b
T. I. M. van Werkhoven, M. Brogi, I. A. G. Snellen +1
The Kepler object KIC 12557548 shows irregular eclipsing behaviour with a constant 15.685 hr period, but strongly varying transit depth. In this paper we fit individual eclipses, i…
A Community Science Case for E-ELT HIRES
R. Maiolino, M. Haehnelt, M. T. Murphy +57
Building on the experience of the high-resolution community with the suite of VLT high-resolution spectrographs, which has been tremendously successful, we outline here the (scienc…
The PLATO 2.0 Mission
H. Rauer, C. Catala, C. Aerts +159
PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it…
A hot Jupiter transiting a mid-K dwarf found in the pre-OmegaCam Transit Survey
J. Koppenhoefer, R. P. Saglia, L. Fossati +13
We describe the pre-OmegaTranS project, a deep survey for transiting extra-solar planets in the Carina region of the Galactic Disk. In 2006-2008 we observed a single dense stellar…
Detection of water absorption in the day side atmosphere of HD 189733 b using ground-based high-resolution spectroscopy at 3.2 microns
J. L. Birkby, R. J. de Kok, M. Brogi +4
We report a 4.8 sigma detection of water absorption features in the day side spectrum of the hot Jupiter HD 189733 b. We used high-resolution (R~100,000) spectra taken at 3.2 micro…
