What's in Your Transit? Towards Reliably Getting More Science from Exoplanet Transit Data
Samson J. Mercier, Julien de Wit, Benjamin V. Rackham
Exoplanetary science heavily relies on transit depth () measurements. Yet, as instrumental precision increases, the uncertainty on appears to increasingly drift from expecta…
Studying the variability of the He triplet to understand the detection limits of evaporating exoplanet atmospheres
Samson J. Mercier, Xavier Dumusque, Vincent Bourrier +20
With more than a dozen significant detections, the helium triplet has emerged as a key tracer of evaporating exoplanet atmospheres. This near-infrared feature can be observed from…
The effect of stellar magnetic activity on measurements of morning and evening asymmetry of planetary terminator
N. Kostogryz, A. I. Shapiro, L. Carone +9
Differences in the ingress and egress shapes of transit light curves can indicate morning-evening temperature contrasts on transiting planets. Here, we pinpoint an alternative mech…
