Ground-based transit observations of the super-Earth GJ 1214b

Claudio Caceres, Petr Kabath, Sergio Hoyer +6

GJ 1214b is one of the few known transiting super-Earth-sized exoplanets with a measured mass and radius. It orbits an M-dwarf, only 14.55 pc away, making it a favorable candidate…

The Atmospheric Circulation and Observable Properties of Non-Synchronously Rotating Hot Jupiters

E. Rauscher, E. M. R. Kempton

We study the feasibility of observationally constraining the rotation rate of hot Jupiters, planets that are typically assumed to have been tidally locked into synchronous rotation…
