The Science Case for an Extended Spitzer Mission
Jennifer C. Yee, Giovanni G. Fazio, Robert Benjamin +45
Although the final observations of the Spitzer Warm Mission are currently scheduled for March 2019, it can continue operations through the end of the decade with no loss of photome…
Two massive rocky planets transiting a K-dwarf 6.5 parsecs away
Michael Gillon, Brice-Olivier Demory, Valerie Van Grootel +14
HD 219134 is a K-dwarf star at a distance of 6.5 parsecs around which several low-mass planets were recently discovered. The Spitzer space telescope detected a transit of the inner…
A map of the large day-night temperature gradient of a super-Earth exoplanet
Brice-Olivier Demory, Michael Gillon, Julien de Wit +11
Over the past decade, observations of giant exoplanets (Jupiter-size) have provided key insights into their atmospheres, but the properties of lower-mass exoplanets (sub-Neptune) r…
Spitzer Transits of the Super-Earth GJ1214b and Implications for Its Atmosphere
Jonathan D. Fraine, Drake Deming, Michaël Gillon +7
We observed the transiting super-Earth exoplanet GJ1214b using Warm Spitzer at 4.5 microns wavelength during a 20-day quasi-continuous sequence in May 2011. The goals of our long o…
