Lupus-TR-3b: A Low-Mass Transiting Hot Jupiter in the Galactic Plane?

David T. F. Weldrake, Daniel D. R. Bayliss, Penny D. Sackett +3

We present a strong case for a transiting Hot Jupiter planet identified during a single-field transit survey towards the Lupus Galactic plane. The object, Lupus-TR-3b, transits a V…

The color signature of the transit of HD 209458: Discrepancies between stellar atmospheric models and observations

B. Tingley, C. Thurl, P. D. Sackett

Exoplanetary transits produce a double-horned color signature that is distinct from both binaries and blends and can thus be used to separate exoplanets from false positives in tra…

A Photometric Diagnostic to Aid in the Identification of Transiting Extra-Solar Planets

B. Tingley, P. D. Sackett

One of the obstacles in the search for exoplanets via transits is the large number of candidates that must be followed up, few of which ultimately prove to be exoplanets. Any metho…

Using color photometry to separate transiting exoplanets from false positives

B. Tingley

The radial velocity technique is currently used to classify transiting objects. While capable of identifying grazing binary eclipses, this technique cannot reliably identify blends…

Improvements to Existing Transit Detection Algorithms and Their Comparison

B. Tingley

In Tingley (2003), all available transit detection algorithms were compared in a simple, rigorous test. However, the implementation of the Box-fitting Least Squares (BLS) approach…

A rigorous comparison of different planet detection algorithms

B. Tingley

The idea of finding extrasolar planets (ESPs) through observations of drops in stellar brightness due to transiting objects has been around for decades. It has only been in the las…
