Transit Photometry of the Core-Dominated Planet HD 149026b
David Charbonneau, Joshua N. Winn, David W. Latham +8
We report g, V, and r photometric time series of HD 149026 spanning predicted times of transit of the Saturn-mass planetary companion, which was recently discovered by Sato and col…
Detection of Thermal Emission from an Extrasolar Planet
David Charbonneau, Lori E. Allen, S. Thomas Megeath +8
We present Spitzer Space Telescope infrared photometric time series of the transiting extrasolar planet system TrES-1. The data span a predicted time of secondary eclipse, correspo…
The Challenge of Wide-Field Transit Surveys: The Case of GSC 01944-02289
Georgi Mandushev, Guillermo Torres, David W. Latham +7
Wide-field searches for transiting extra-solar giant planets face the difficult challenge of separating true transit events from the numerous false positives caused by isolated or…
Hubble's View of Transiting Planets
David Charbonneau
The Hubble Space Telescope is uniquely able to study planets that are observed to transit their parent stars. The extremely stable platform afforded by an orbiting spacecraft, free…
TrES-1: The Transiting Planet of a Bright K0V Star
Roi Alonso, Timothy M. Brown, Guillermo Torres +9
We report the detection of a transiting Jupiter-sized planet orbiting a relatively bright (V=11.79) K0V star. We detected the transit light-curve signature in the course of the TrE…
Sherlock: An Automated Follow-Up Telescope for Wide-Field Transit Searches
Lewis Kotredes, David Charbonneau, Dagny L. Looper +1
The most significant challenge currently facing photometric surveys for transiting gas-giant planets is that of confusion with eclipsing binary systems that mimic the photometric s…
