Ground-based Atmospheric Characterization of Super-Earth L 98-59 d at High Spectral Resolution

Connor J. Cheverall, Nikku Madhusudhan, Savvas Constantinou +1

Atmospheric characterization of exoplanets using ground-based high-resolution transmission spectroscopy has traditionally focussed on large and close-in planets, such as hot Jupite…

Stellar Spins in the Open Cluster NGC 2516

Brian F. Healy, P. R. McCullough

Measuring the distribution of stellar spin axis orientations in a coeval group of stars probes the physical processes underlying the stars' formation. In this paper, we use spectro…

XO-7 b: A transiting hot Jupiter with a massive companion on a wide orbit

Nicolas Crouzet, Brian F. Healy, Guillaume Hébrard +16

Transiting planets orbiting bright stars are the most favorable targets for follow-up and characterization. We report the discovery of the transiting hot Jupiter XO-7 b and of a se…

Water Vapor in the Spectrum of the Extrasolar Planet HD 189733b: 1. the Transit

P. R. McCullough, N. Crouzet, D. Deming +1

We report near-infrared spectroscopy of the gas giant planet HD 189733b in transit. We used the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 (HST WFC3) with its G141 grism covering 1…

Kepler-413b: a slightly misaligned, Neptune-size transiting circumbinary planet

Veselin B. Kostov, Peter R. McCullough, Joshua A. Carter +9

We report the discovery of a transiting, Rp = 4.347+/-0.099REarth, circumbinary planet (CBP) orbiting the Kepler K+M Eclipsing Binary (EB) system KIC 12351927 (Kepler-413) every ~6…

Transmission spectroscopy of exoplanet XO-2b observed with HST NICMOS

Nicolas Crouzet, Peter R. McCullough, Christopher J. Burke +1

Spectroscopy during planetary transits is a powerful tool to probe exoplanet atmospheres. We present the near-infrared transit spectroscopy of XO-2b obtained with HST NICMOS. Uniqu…

NICMOS Observations of the Transiting Hot Jupiter XO-1b

Christopher J. Burke, P. R. McCullough, E. Bergeron +6

We refine the physical parameters of the transiting hot Jupiter planet XO-1b and its stellar host XO-1 using HST NICMOS observations. XO-1b has a radius Rp=1.21+/-0.03 RJup, and XO…

XO-5b: A Transiting Jupiter-sized Planet With A Four Day Period

Christopher J. Burke, P. R. McCullough, Jeff A. Valenti +11

The star XO-5 (GSC 02959-00729, V=12.1, G8V) hosts a Jupiter-sized, Rp=1.15+/-0.12 Rjup, transiting extrasolar planet, XO-5b, with an orbital period of P=4.187732+/-0.00002 days. T…

XO-2b: Transiting Hot Jupiter in a Metal-rich Common Proper Motion Binary

Christopher J. Burke, P. R. McCullough, Jeff A. Valenti +15

We report on a V=11.2 early K dwarf, XO-2 (GSC 03413-00005), that hosts a Rp=0.98+0.03/-0.01 Rjup, Mp=0.57+/-0.06 Mjup transiting extrasolar planet, XO-2b, with an orbital period o…
