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…
Observations of Transiting Exoplanets with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific (PASP), December 2014
Charles Beichman, Bjoern Benneke, Heather Knutson +44
This article summarizes a workshop held on March, 2014, on the potential of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to revolutionize our knowledge of the physical properties of exopl…
The ground-based H, K, and L-band absolute emission spectra of HD 209458b
Robert T. Zellem, Caitlin A. Griffith, Pieter Deroo +2
Here we explore the capabilities of NASA's 3.0 meter Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) and SpeX spectrometer and the 5.08 meter Hale telescope with the TripleSpec spectrometer wit…
Generation of an optimal target list for the Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory (EChO)
Ryan Varley, Ingo Waldmann, Enzo Pascale +8
The Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory (EChO) has been studied as a space mission concept by the European Space Agency in the context of the M3 selection process. Through direc…
On the Detection of Molecules in the Atmosphere of HD189733b using HST NICMOS Transmission Spectroscopy
Mark Swain, Michael Line, Pieter Deroo
The HST/NICMOS transmission spectrum measurements of HD 189733b that suggest the detection of methane (CH) in an exoplanet atmosphere have been a source of significant contro…
Comparing the WFC3 IR Grism Stare and Spatial-Scan Observations for Exoplanet Characterization
Mark R. Swain, Pieter Deroo, Kiri L. Wagstaff
We report on a detailed study of the measurement stability for WFC3 IR grism stare and spatial scan observations. The excess measurement noise for both modes is established by comp…
