Exoplanet transit spectro-photometry with SOFIA [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010 AbstractWe present the prospects of observing extrasolar planets with the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA). Our analysis shows that optical and near-infrared photometric and spectrophotometric follow-up observations during planetary transits and\break eclipses will be feasible with SOFIA's instrumentation, especially with the ...

TOI-5205b: A Short-period Jovian Planet Transiting a Mid-M Dwarf
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present the discovery of TOI-5205b, a transiting Jovian planet orbiting a solar metallicity M4V star, which was discovered using Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite photometry and then confirmed using a combination of precise radial velocities ...

NEAR-INFRARED TRANSIT PHOTOMETRY OF THE EXOPLANET HD 149026b [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2009 The transiting exoplanet HD 149026b is an important case for theories of planet formation and planetary structure, because the planet's relatively small size has been interpreted as evidence for a highly metal-enriched composition. We present observations of 4 transits with the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer on the Hubble Space ...

Differential rotation of Kepler-71 via transit photometry mapping of faculae and starspots
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 Knowledge of dynamo evolution in solar-type stars is limited by the difficulty of using active region monitoring to measure stellar differential rotation, a key probe of stellar dynamo physics.

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

Transit Depth Variations Reveal TOI-216 b to be a Super-puff
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The planets of the TOI-216 system have been previously observed to exhibit large transit-timing variations, which enabled precise mass characterization of both transiting planets.

MULTI-COLOR TRANSIT PHOTOMETRY OF GJ 1214b THROUGH BJHKs BANDS AND A LONG-TERM MONITORING OF THE STELLAR VARIABILITY OF GJ 1214 [PDF]
, 2013 We present five new transit light curves of GJ 1214b taken in the BJHKs bands. Two transits were observed in the B band using the Subaru Prime Focus Camera (Suprime-Cam) and the Faint Object Camera and Spectrograph (FOCAS) instruments on board the Subaru
