Hubble PanCET: An isothermal day-side atmosphere for the bloated gas-giant HAT-P-32Ab

N. Nikolov, D. K. Sing, J. Goyal +20

We present a thermal emission spectrum of the bloated hot Jupiter HAT-P-32Ab from a single eclipse observation made in spatial scan mode with the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) aboard…

Marginalising instrument systematics in HST WFC3 transit lightcurves

H. R. Wakeford, D. K. Sing, T. Evans +2

Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) infrared observations at 1.1-1.7m probe primarily the HO absorption band at 1.4m, and has provided low resolution…

The optical transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter HAT-P-32b: clouds explain the absence of broad spectral features?

N. P. Gibson, S. Aigrain, J. K. Barstow +3

We report Gemini-North GMOS observations of the inflated hot Jupiter HAT-P-32b during two primary transits. We simultaneously observed two comparison stars and used differential sp…

A Gemini ground-based transmission spectrum of WASP-29b: a featureless spectrum from 515 to 720nm

N. P. Gibson, S. Aigrain, J. K. Barstow +3

We report Gemini-South GMOS observations of the exoplanet system WASP-29 during primary transit as a test case for differential spectrophotometry. We use the multi-object spectrogr…

Probing the haze in the atmosphere of HD 189733b with HST/WFC3 transmission spectroscopy

N. P. Gibson, S. Aigrain, F. Pont +6

We present Hubble Space Telescope near-infrared transmission spectroscopy of the transiting exoplanet HD 189733b, using Wide Field Camera 3. This consists of time-series spectra of…

A Gaussian process framework for modelling instrumental systematics: application to transmission spectroscopy

N. P. Gibson, S. Aigrain, S. Roberts +3

Transmission spectroscopy, which consists of measuring the wavelength-dependent absorption of starlight by a planet's atmosphere during a transit, is a powerful probe of atmospheri…

Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission. XVIII. CoRoT-18b: a massive hot jupiter on a prograde, nearly aligned orbit

G. Hebrard, T. M. Evans, R. Alonso +44

We report the detection of CoRoT-18b, a massive hot jupiter transiting in front of its host star with a period of 1.9000693 +/- 0.0000028 days. This planet was discovered thanks to…
