Starspots - Transit Depth Relation of the Evaporating Planet Candidate KIC 12557548b
Hajime Kawahara, Teruyuki Hirano, Kenji Kurosaki +2
Violent variation of transit depths and an ingress-egress asymmetry of the transit light curve discovered in KIC 12557548 have been interpreted as evidences of a catastrophic evapo…
Impact of photoevaporative mass loss on masses and radii of water-rich sub/super-Earths
Kenji Kurosaki, Masahiro Ikoma, Yasunori Hori
Recent progress in transit photometry opened a new window to the interior of super-Earths. From measured radii and masses, we can infer planetary internal compositions. It has been…
Multi-Color Transit Photometry of GJ 1214b through BJHKs-Bands and a Long-Term Monitoring of the Stellar Variability of GJ 1214
Norio Narita, Akihiko Fukui, Masahiro Ikoma +19
We present 5 new transit light curves of GJ 1214b taken in BJHKs-bands. Two transits were observed in B-band using the Suprime-Cam and the FOCAS instruments onboard the Subaru 8.2m…
Optical-to-Near-Infrared Simultaneous Observations for the Hot Uranus GJ3470b: A Hint for Cloud-free Atmosphere
Akihiko Fukui, Norio Narita, Kenji Kurosaki +15
We present optical (g', R_c, and I_c) to near-infrared (J) simultaneous photometric observations for a primary transit of GJ3470b, a Uranus-mass transiting planet around a nearby M…
