Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission: VII. The "hot-Jupiter"-type planet CoRoT-5b
H. Rauer, D. Queloz, Sz. Csizmadia +43
Aims. The CoRoT space mission continues to photometrically monitor about 12 000 stars in its field-of-view for a series of target fields to search for transiting extrasolar planets…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission VIII. CoRoT-7b: the first Super-Earth with measured radius
A. Leger, D. Rouan, J. Schneider +51
We report the discovery of very shallow (DF/F = 3.4 10-4), periodic dips in the light curve of an active V = 11.7 G9V star observed by the CoRoT satellite, which we interpret as du…
The spin-orbit angle of the transiting hot jupiter CoRoT-1b
F. Pont, M. Endl, W. D. Cochran +14
We measure the angle between the planetary orbit and the stellar rotation axis in the transiting planetary system CoRoT-1, with new HIRES/Keck and FORS/VLT high-accuracy photometry…
Planetary transit candidates in COROT-IRa01 field
S. Carpano, J. Cabrera, R. Alonso +35
Context: CoRoT is a pioneering space mission devoted to the analysis of stellar variability and the photometric detection of extrasolar planets. Aims: We present the list of planet…
The secondary eclipse of the transiting exoplanet CoRoT-2b
R. Alonso, T. Guillot, T. Mazeh +5
We present a study of the light curve of the transiting exoplanet CoRoT-2b, aimed at detecting the secondary eclipse and measuring its depth. The data were obtained with the CoRoT…
Bulk composition of the transiting hot Neptune around GJ 436
P. Figueira, F. Pont, C. Mordasini +3
The hot Neptune orbiting around GJ 436 is a unique example of an intermediate mass planet. Its close-in orbit suggests that the planet has undergone migration and its study is fund…
Noise properties of the CoRoT data: a planet-finding perspective
S. Aigrain, F. Pont, F. Fressin +30
In this short paper, we study the photometric precision of stellar light curves obtained by the CoRoT satellite in its planet finding channel, with a particular emphasis on the tim…
Photometric and spectroscopic detection of the primary transit of the 111-day-period planet HD 80606 b
C. Moutou, G. Hebrard, F. Bouchy +19
We report the detection of the primary transit of the extra-solar planet HD 80606 b, thanks to photometric and spectroscopic observations performed at Observatoire de Haute-Provenc…
WASP-12b: The hottest transiting planet yet discovered
L. Hebb, A. Collier-Cameron, B. Loeillet +15
We report on the discovery of WASP-12b, a new transiting extrasolar planet with and . The planet and host star propertie…
