Phase Curve of the Hot Jupiter WASP-19b
Ian Wong, Björn Benneke, Avi Shporer +13
We analyze the phase curve of the short-period transiting hot Jupiter system WASP-19, which was observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite () in Sector 9. WASP-19…
The full phase curve of the eclipsing hot white dwarf binary system KOI-964
Ian Wong, Avi Shporer, Juliette C. Becker +6
We analyze the full phase curve of KOI-964, a binary system consisting of a hot white dwarf on an eclipsing orbit around an A-type host star. Using all 18 quarter…
A Hubble PanCET Study of HAT-P-11b: A Cloudy Neptune with a Low Atmospheric Metallicity
Yayaati Chachan, Heather A. Knutson, Peter Gao +14
We present the first comprehensive look at the m transmission spectrum of the warm ( K) Neptune HAT-P-11b derived from thirteen individual transits observed u…
Exploring the atmospheric dynamics of the extreme ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-9b using TESS photometry
Ian Wong, Avi Shporer, Daniel Kitzmann +24
We carry out a phase-curve analysis of the KELT-9 system using photometric observations from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The measured secondary eclipse dep…
Evidence for H Dissociation and Recombination Heat Transport in the Atmosphere of KELT-9b
Megan Mansfield, Jacob L. Bean, Kevin B. Stevenson +19
Phase curve observations provide an opportunity to study the full energy budgets of exoplanets by quantifying the amount of heat redistributed from their daysides to their nightsid…
Water Vapor and Clouds on the Habitable-Zone Sub-Neptune Exoplanet K2-18b
Björn Benneke, Ian Wong, Caroline Piaulet +13
Results from the Kepler mission indicate that the occurrence rate of small planets ( ) in the habitable zone of nearby low-mass stars may be as high as 80%. Despite t…
TESS observations of the WASP-121 b phase curve
Tansu Daylan, Maximilian N. Günther, Thomas Mikal-Evans +23
We study the red-optical photometry of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121 b as observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and model its atmosphere through a radiative…
Two new HATNet hot Jupiters around A stars, and the first glimpse at the occurrence rate of hot Jupiters from TESS
G. Zhou, C. X. Huang, G. Á. Bakos +68
Wide field surveys for transiting planets are well suited to searching diverse stellar populations, enabling a better understanding of the link between the properties of planets an…
A Sub-Neptune Exoplanet with a Low-Metallicity Methane-Depleted Atmosphere and Mie-Scattering Clouds
Björn Benneke, Heather A. Knutson, Joshua Lothringer +15
With no analogues in the Solar System, the discovery of thousands of exoplanets with masses and radii intermediate between Earth and Neptune was one of the big surprises of exoplan…
Photometry of active Centaurs: Colors of dormant active Centaur nuclei
Ian Wong, Aakash Mishra, Michael E. Brown
We present multiband photometric observations of nine Centaurs. Five of the targets are known active Centaurs (167P/CINEOS, 174P/Echeclus, P/2008 CL94, P/2011 S1, and C/2012 Q1), a…
Multiband photometry of a Patroclus-Menoetius mutual event: Constraints on surface heterogeneity
Ian Wong, Michael E. Brown
We present the first complete multiband observations of a binary asteroid mutual event. We obtained high-cadence, high-signal-to-noise photometry of the UT 2018 April 9 inferior sh…
Hubble Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Jupiter Trojans
Ian Wong, Michael E. Brown, Jordana Blacksberg +2
We present the first ultraviolet spectra of Jupiter Trojans. These observations were carried out using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope and co…
An Eccentric Massive Jupiter Orbiting a Sub-Giant on a 9.5 Day Period Discovered in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite Full Frame Images
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, Chelsea X. Huang +71
We report the discovery of TOI-172 b from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, a massive hot Jupiter transiting a slightly evolved G-star with a 9.48-day orbit…
