    • Atmospheric Characterization of 5 Hot Jupiters with Wide Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope 

      Ranjan, Sukrit; Charbonneau, David; Désert, Jean-Michel; Madhusudhan, Nikku; Deming, Drake; Wilkins, Ashlee; Mandell, Avi M. (IOP Publishing, 2014)
      We probe the structure and composition of the atmospheres of five hot Jupiter exoplanets using the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) instrument. We use the G141 grism (1.1-1.7 μm) to study TrES-2b, TrES-4b, ...

    • Atmospheric characterization of high-gravity hot Jupiters with ACCESS 

      Weaver, Ian Curtis (2022-05-12)
      The previous month marked the 5,000th confirmed exoplanet discovery, a milestone in the next era of exoplanet science, exoplanet characterization. To that end, several recent ground and space-based surveys have begun ...

    • An Independent Measurement of the Incidence of MgII Absorbers along Gamma-Ray Burst Sightlines: the End of the Mystery? 

      Cucchiara, A.; Prochaska, J. X.; Zhu, G.; Ménard, B.; Fynbo, J. P. U.; Fox, D. B.; Chen, H.-W.; Cooksey, K. L.; Cenko, S. B.; Perley, D.; Bloom, J. S.; Berger, Edo; Tanvir, N. R.; D, V.; Lopez, S.; Chornock, R; de Jaeger, T. (IOP Publishing, 2013)
      In 2006, Prochter et al. reported a statistically significant enhancement of very strong Mg II absorption systems intervening the sightlines to gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) relative to the incidence of such absorption along ...

    • Infrared Transmission Spectroscopy of the Exoplanets Hd 209458b and Xo-1b Using the Wide Field Camera-3 on the Hubble Space Telescope 

      Deming, Drake; Wilkins, Ashlee; McCullough, Peter; Burrows, Adam; Fortney, Jonathan J.; Agol, Eric; Dobbs-Dixon, Ian; Madhusudhan, Nikku; Crouzet, Nicolas; Desert, Jean-Michel; Gilliland, Ronald L.; Haynes, Korey; Knutson, Heather A.; Line, Michael; Magic, Zazralt; Mandell, Avi M.; Ranjan, Sukrit; Charbonneau, David; Clampin, Mark; Seager, Sara; Showman, Adam P. (IOP Publishing, 2013)
      Exoplanetary transmission spectroscopy in the near-infrared using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) NICMOS is currently ambiguous because different observational groups claim different results from the same data, depending ...

    • The Kepler-10 planetary system revisited by HARPS-N: A hot rocky world and a solid Neptune-mass planet. 

      Dumusque, Xavier; Bonomo, Aldo S.; Haywood, Raphaelle D.; Malavolta, Luca; Ségransan, Damien; Buchhave, Lars A.; Cameron, Andrew Collier; Latham, David Winslow; Molinari, Emilio; Pepe, Francesco; Udry, Stéphane; Charbonneau, David; Cosentino, Rosario; Dressing, Courtney; Figueira, Pedro; Fiorenzano, Aldo F. M.; Gettel, Sara; Harutyunyan, Avet; Horne, Keith; Lopez-Morales, Mercedes; Lovis, Christophe; Mayor, Michel; Micela, Giusi; Motalebi, Fatemeh; Nascimbeni, Valerio; Phillips, David F.; Piotto, Giampaolo; Pollacco, Don; Queloz, Didier; Rice, Ken; Sasselov, Dimitar D.; Sozzetti, Alessandro; Szentgyorgyi, Andrew H.; Watson, Chris (IOP Publishing, 2014)
      Kepler-10b was the first rocky planet detected by the Kepler satellite and confirmed with radial velocity follow-up observations from Keck-HIRES. The mass of the planet was measured with a precision of around 30%, which ...
