Thermal Emission of WASP-14b Revealed with Three Spitzer Eclipses
Jasmina Blecic, Joseph Harrington, Nikku Madhusudhan +10
Exoplanet WASP-14b is a highly irradiated, transiting hot Jupiter. Joshi et al. calculate an equilibrium temperature Teq of 1866 K for zero albedo and reemission from the entire pl…
Transit and Eclipse Analyses of Exoplanet HD 149026b Using BLISS Mapping
Kevin B. Stevenson, Joseph Harrington, Jonathan J. Fortney +7
The dayside of HD 149026b is near the edge of detectability by the Spitzer Space Telescope. We report on eleven secondary-eclipse events at 3.6, 4.5, 3 x 5.8, 4 x 8.0, and 2 x 16 m…
High C/O Ratio and Weak Thermal Inversion in the Very Hot Atmosphere of Exoplanet WASP-12b
Nikku Madhusudhan, Joseph Harrington, Kevin B. Stevenson +16
The carbon-to-oxygen ratio (C/O) in a planet provides critical information about its primordial origins and subsequent evolution. A primordial C/O greater than 0.8 causes a carbide…
Possible thermochemical disequilibrium in the atmosphere of the exoplanet GJ 436b
Kevin B. Stevenson, Joseph Harrington, Sarah Nymeyer +7
The nearby extrasolar planet GJ 436b--which has been labelled as a 'hot Neptune'--reveals itself by the dimming of light as it crosses in front of and behind its parent star as see…
Spitzer Secondary Eclipses of WASP-18b
Sarah Nymeyer, Joseph Harrington, Ryan A. Hardy +16
The transiting exoplanet WASP-18b was discovered in 2008 by the Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) project. The Spitzer Exoplanet Target of Opportunity Program observed secondary…
On the Orbit of Exoplanet WASP-12b
Christopher J. Campo, Joseph Harrington, Ryan A. Hardy +17
We observed two secondary eclipses of the exoplanet WASP-12b using the Infrared Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope. The close proximity of WASP-12b to its G-type star resu…
