Relative photometry of transiting exoplanet CoRoT-Exo-2b
, 2009 Relative CCD photometry of the extrasolar planet COROT-Exo-2b transiting in front of its parent star was carried out at the Astronomical and Geophysical Observatory of Comenius University at Modra (AGO). Physical and orbital parameters were determined and compared with the previous published data.

Unveiling an exoplanetary Neptunian atmosphere through multiband transit photometry [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2013 AbstractThe “effective” radius of a planet is a function of wavelength due to scattering and/or absorption processes, and we can exploit simultaneous multiband transit photometry to probe the atmospheric scale height and composition. We present new photometric data of the recently discovered “hot Uranus” GJ3470b, gathered with the LBC camera at LBT ...

Precision Near-Infrared Photometry for Exoplanet Transit Observations. I. Ensemble Spot Photometry for an All-Sky Survey [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2012 Near-IR observations are important for the detection and characterization of exoplanets using the transit technique, either in surveys of large numbers of stars or for follow-up spectroscopic observations of individual planets. In a controlled laboratory

Transit and secondary eclipse photometry in the near-infrared
, 2007 Near-infrared photometry of transiting extrasolar planets can be of great scientific value. It is however not straightforward to reach the necessary millimagnitude precision. Here we report on our attempts to observe transits and secondary eclipses of several extrasolar planets at 2.2 micron.

Some Tests to Establish Confidence in Planets Discovered by Transit Photometry
The Astrophysical Journal, 2002 Increased attention is being paid to transit photometry as a viable method for discovering or confirming detections of extrasolar planets. Several ground-based efforts are underway that target short-period, giant planets such as 51 Peg b, and several missions have been proposed to NASA and ESA to detect planets as small as Earth from spaceborne ...

HD 209458 planetary transits from Hipparcos photometry
, 2000 During its 39-month mission, Hipparcos observed the star HD 209458 on 89 occasions. Five of these observations are shown to correspond to epochs of planetary transits, with a 2.3±0.4% mean decrease of flux in the Hpband being observed during the transits.

Constraining the oblateness of transiting planets with photometry and spectroscopy [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT Rapid planetary rotation can cause the equilibrium shape of a planet to be oblate. While planetary oblateness has mostly been probed by examining the subtle ingress and egress features in photometric transit light curves, we investigate the effect of oblateness on the spectroscopic Rossiter–McLaughlin (RM) signals. We found that

Diffuser-assisted Infrared Transit Photometry for Four Dynamically Interacting Kepler Systems [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2019 We present ground-based infrared transit observations for four dynamically interacting Kepler planets, including Kepler-29b, Kepler-36c, KOI-1783.01, and Kepler-177c, obtained using the Wide-field Infrared Camera on the Hale 200 inch telescope at Palomar
