Constraints on the structure and seasonal variations of Triton's atmosphere from the 5 October 2017 stellar occultation and previous observations
J. Marques Oliveira, B. Sicardy, A. R. Gomes-Júnior +234
A stellar occultation by Neptune's main satellite, Triton, was observed on 5 October 2017 from Europe, North Africa, and the USA. We derived 90 light curves from this event, 42 of…
The EChO science case
Giovanna Tinetti, Pierre Drossart, Paul Eccleston +347
The discovery of almost 2000 exoplanets has revealed an unexpectedly diverse planet population. Observations to date have shown that our Solar System is certainly not representativ…
EChO - Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory
G. Tinetti, J. P. Beaulieu, T. Henning +131
A dedicated mission to investigate exoplanetary atmospheres represents a major milestone in our quest to understand our place in the universe by placing our Solar System in context…
Methane in the atmosphere of the transiting hot Neptune GJ436b?
J. -P. Beaulieu, G. Tinetti, D. M. Kipping +14
We present an analysis of seven primary transit observations of the hot Neptune GJ436b at 3.6, 4.5 and m obtained with the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) on the Spitzer Space Te…
Line-profile tomography of exoplanet transits -- II. A gas-giant planet transiting a rapidly-rotating A5 star
A. Collier Cameron, E. Guenther, B. Smalley +16
Most of our knowledge of extrasolar planets rests on precise radial-velocity measurements, either for direct detection or for confirmation of the planetary origin of photometric tr…
Pathways Towards Habitable Moons
David M. Kipping, Stephen J. Fossey, Giammarco Campanella +2
The search for life outside of the Solar System should not be restricted to exclusively planetary bodies; large moons of extrasolar planets may also be common habitable environment…
Water in HD 209458b's atmosphere from 3.6 - 8 microns IRAC photometric observations in primary transit
J. P. Beaulieu, D. M. Kipping, V. Batista +15
The hot Jupiter HD 209458b was observed during primary transit at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8 and 8.0 microns using the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) on the Spitzer Space Telescope. We detail her…
On the detectability of habitable exomoons with Kepler-class photometry
David M. Kipping, Stephen J. Fossey, Giammarco Campanella
In this paper we investigate the detectability of a habitable-zone exomoon around various configurations of exoplanetary systems with the Kepler Mission or photometry of approximat…
Detection of a transit by the planetary companion of HD 80606
Stephen J. Fossey, Ingo P. Waldman, David M. Kipping
We report the detection of a transit egress by the ~ 3.9-Jupiter-mass planet HD 80606b, an object in a highly-eccentric orbit (e ~ 0.93) about its parent star of approximately sola…
