A Smaller Radius for the Transiting Exoplanet WASP-10b
John A. Johnson, Joshua N. Winn, Nicole E. Cabrera +1
We present photometry of WASP-10 during the transit of its short-period Jovian planet. We employed the novel PSF-shaping capabilities the OPTIC camera mounted on the UH 2.2m telesc…
Planets in Stellar Clusters Extensive Search. V. Search for planets and identification of 18 new variable stars in the old open cluster NGC 188
B. J. Mochejska, K. Z. Stanek, D. D. Sasselov +7
We have undertaken a long-term project, Planets in Stellar Clusters Extensive Search (PISCES), to search for transiting planets in open clusters. In this paper we present the resul…
Measuring accurate transit parameters
Joshua N. Winn
By observing the transits of exoplanets, one may determine many fundamental system parameters. I review current techniques and results for the parameters that can be measured with…
Analytic approximations for transit light curve observables and uncertainties
Joshua A. Carter, Jennifer C. Yee, Jason Eastman +2
The light curve of an exoplanetary transit can be used to estimate the planetary radius and other parameters of interest. Because accurate parameter estimation is a non-analytic an…
A Search for Exotrojans in Transiting Exoplanetary systems
N. Madhusudhan, Joshua N. Winn
We present a search for Trojan companions to 25 transiting exoplanets. We use the technique of Ford & Gaudi 2006, in which a difference is sought between the observed transit time…
A Precise Estimate of the Radius of HD 149026b
Philip Nutzman, David Charbonneau, Joshua N. Winn +4
We present Spitzer 8 micron transit observations of the extrasolar planet system HD 149026. At this wavelength, transit light curves are weakly affected by stellar limb-darkening,…
