The Flat Transmission Spectrum of the Super-Earth GJ1214b from Wide Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope

Zachory K. Berta, David Charbonneau, Jean-Michel Désert +7

Capitalizing on the observational advantage offered by its tiny M dwarf host, we present HST/WFC3 grism measurements of the transmission spectrum of the super-Earth exoplanet GJ121…

The Optical and Near-Infrared Transmission Spectrum of the Super-Earth GJ1214b: Further Evidence for a Metal-Rich Atmosphere

Jacob L. Bean, Jean-Michel Désert, Petr Kabath +7

We present an investigation of the transmission spectrum of the 6.5 M_earth planet GJ1214b based on new ground-based observations of transits of the planet in the optical and near-…

LSPM J1112+7626: detection of a 41-day M-dwarf eclipsing binary from the MEarth transit survey

Jonathan M. Irwin, Samuel N. Quinn, Zachory K. Berta +13

We report the detection of eclipses in LSPM J1112+7626, which we find to be a moderately bright (I_C = 12.14 +/- 0.05) very low-mass binary system with an orbital period of 41.0323…

Observational evidence for a metal rich atmosphere on the super-Earth GJ1214b

Jean-Michel Désert, Jacob Bean, Eliza Miller-Ricci Kempton +6

We report observations of two consecutive transits of the warm super-Earth exoplanet GJ1214b at 3.6 and 4.5 microns with the Infrared Array Camera instrument on-board the Spitzer S…

The Transit Light Curve Project. XIII. Sixteen Transits of the Super-Earth GJ 1214b

Joshua A. Carter, Joshua N. Winn, Matthew J. Holman +4

We present optical photometry of 16 transits of the super-Earth GJ 1214b, allowing us to refine the system parameters and search for additional planets via transit timing. Starspot…
