Extrasolar Planet Transits Observed at Kitt Peak National Observatory
, 2012 We obtained J-, H- and JH-band photometry of known extrasolar planet transiting systems at the 2.1-m Kitt Peak National Observatory Telescope using the FLAMINGOS infrared camera between October 2008 and October 2011.

The stellar variability noise floor for transiting exoplanet photometry with PLATO [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT One of the main science motivations for the ESA PLAnetary Transit and Oscillations (PLATO) mission is to measure exoplanet transit radii with 3 per cent precision. In addition to flares and starspots, stellar oscillations and granulation will enforce fundamental noise floors for transiting exoplanet radius measurements.

Discovery and characterization of WASP-6b, an inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting a solar-type star [PDF]
, 2009 We report the discovery of WASP-6b, an inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting every $ 3.3610060^{\rm + 0.0000022 }_ $ days a mildly metal-poor solar-type star of magnitude V = 11.9. A combined analysis of the WASP photometry, high-precision followup

High-resolution Imaging Transit Photometry of Kepler-13AB [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2019 Abstract Using the high-resolution imaging instrument, ’Alopeke, at the Gemini-N telescope, we obtained simultaneous two-channel time-series observations of the binary exoplanet host star Kepler13-AB. Our optical observations were obtained during a transit event of the exoplanet Kepler-13b and light curves were produced using both ...

Discovery and Characterization of Transiting SuperEarths Using an All-Sky Transit Survey and Follow-up by the James Webb Space Telescope [PDF]
, 2009 Doppler and transit surveys are finding extrasolar planets of ever smaller mass and radius, and are now sampling the domain of superEarths (1-3 Earth radii). Recent results from the Doppler surveys suggest that discovery of a transiting superEarth in the

Millimagnitude Photometry for Transiting Extrasolar Planetary Candidates III: Accurate Radius and Period for OGLE-TR-111-b [PDF]
, 2007 We present accurate V-band photometry for a planetary transit of OGLE-TR-111 acquired with VIMOS at the ESO Very Large Telescope. The measurement of this transit allows to refine the planetary radius, obtaining R_p= 1.01 +/- 0.06 R_J.
