Sporadic Dips from Extended Debris Transiting the Metal-rich White Dwarf SBSS 1232+563
We present the discovery of deep but sporadic transits in the flux of SBSS 1232+563, a metal-rich white dwarf polluted by disrupted exoplanetary debris.

A transit timing analysis with combined ground- and space-based photometry
The analysis of timing variations of transiting exoplanets allows one to discover additional planets in the system. Such bodies can be very low in mass and radius, so that they remain undetected by transit or radial velocity methods.

A Six Year, Low-resolution, Multibroadband Transit Photometry Study of HD 189733b
Transmission spectroscopy offers an invaluable opportunity to characterize the atmospheres of exoplanets. We present new ground-based optical transmission spectra of the hot Jupiter HD 189733b, derived from nine transits observed over a six year time ...

Extrasolar Planet Transits Observed at Kitt Peak National Observatory
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 contribution of the major planet search surveys to EChO target selection [PDF]
The EChO core science will be based on a three tier survey, each with increasing sensitivity, in order to study the population of exo-planets from super-Earths to Jupiter-like planets, in the very hot to temperate zones (temperatures of 300 K - 3000 K ...

Sono‐Mechanogenetics: Linking Ultrasound Physics With Cellular Mechanobiology
Sono‐mechanogenetics links ultrasound physics with cellular mechanotransduction to enable noninvasive control of engineered biological systems. Acoustic forces generate distinct deformation modes that activate intracellular signaling pathways, which can be coupled to synthetic gene circuits to regulate diverse cellular functions, including gene ...

TESS Timings of 31 Hot Jupiters with Ephemeris Uncertainties
A precise transit ephemeris serves as the premise for follow-up exoplanet observations. We compare TESS Object of Interest (TOI) transit timings of 262 hot Jupiters with the archival ephemeris and find 31 of them having TOI timing offsets, among which ...

Millimagnitude Optical Photometry for the Transiting Planetary Candidate OGLE-TR-109
We present precise V-band photometry for the low-amplitude transit candidate star OGLE-TR-109. This is an extreme case among the transiting candidates found by the OGLE group because of the early spectral type of the star (F0V), of the low transit ...

HATS-8b: A Low-Density Transiting Super-Neptune [PDF]
HATS-8b is a low density transiting super-Neptune discovered as part of the HATSouth project. The planet orbits its solar-like G dwarf host (V=14.03 $\pm$ 0.10 and T$_{eff}$ =5679 $\pm$ 50 K) with a period of 3.5839 d.
