Infrared Eclipses of the Strongly Irradiated Planet WASP-33b, and Oscillations of its Host Star
Drake Deming, Jonathan D. Fraine, Pedro V. Sada +7
We observe two secondary eclipses of the strongly irradiated transiting planet WASP-33b in the Ks band, and one secondary eclipse each at 3.6- and 4.5 microns using Warm Spitzer. T…
Constraining Tidal Dissipation in Stars from The Destruction Rates of Exoplanets
Kaloyan Penev, Brian Jackson, Federico Spada +1
We use the distribution of extrasolar planets in circular orbits around stars with surface convective zones detected by ground based transit searches to constrain how efficiently t…
Detection of Thermal Emission from a Super-Earth
Brice-Olivier Demory, Michael Gillon, Sara Seager +3
We report on the detection of infrared light from the super-Earth 55 Cnc e, based on four occultations obtained with Warm Spitzer at 4.5 microns. Our data analysis consists of a tw…
The EVIL-MC Model for Ellipsoidal Variations of Planet-Hosting Stars and Applications to the HAT-P-7 System
Brian K. Jackson, Nikole K. Lewis, Jason W. Barnes +3
We present a new model for Ellipsoidal Variations Induced by a Low-Mass Companion, the EVIL-MC model. We employ several approximations appropriate for planetary systems to substant…
Extrasolar Planet Transits Observed at Kitt Peak National Observatory
Pedro V. Sada, Drake Deming, Donald E. Jennings +8
We obtained J-, H- and JH-band photometry of known extrasolar planet transiting systems at the 2.1-m Kitt Peak National Observatory Telescope using the FLAMINGOS infrared camera be…
