Exoplanet Ephemerides Change Observations (ExoEcho). II. Transit Timing Variation Analysis of Brown Dwarfs around Solar-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Transit timing variation (TTV) is a useful tool for studying the orbital properties of transiting objects. However, few TTV studies have been done on transiting brown dwarfs (BDs) around solar-type stars.

A Transiting Giant on a 7.7 yr Orbit Revealed by Transit Timing Variations in the TOI-201 System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report the detection and characterization of TOI-201 c, a long-period transiting companion to the warm Jupiter TOI-201 b. Its presence was first inferred from high-amplitude transit timing variations (TTVs) in TOI-201 b, pointing to a massive outer ...

Validation of a Third Planet in the LHS 1678 System

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The nearby LHS 1678 (TOI-696) system contains two confirmed planets and a wide-orbit, likely brown-dwarf companion, which orbit an M2 dwarf with a unique evolutionary history. The host star occupies a narrow “gap” in the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram lower

Exoplanet Ephemerides Change Observations (ExoEcho). I. Transit Timing Analysis of 37 Exoplanets Using HST/WFC3 Data

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The ExoEcho project is designed to study the photodynamics of exoplanets by leveraging high-precision transit timing data from ground- and space-based telescopes.

Extrasolar Planet Transits Observed at Kitt Peak National Observatory

open access: yes, 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.

Investigating the physical properties of transiting hot Jupiters with the 1.5-m Kuiper Telescope

open access: yes, 2017
We present new photometric data of 11 hot Jupiter transiting exoplanets (CoRoT-12b, HAT-P-5b, HAT-P-12b, HAT-P-33b, HAT-P-37b, WASP-2b, WASP-24b, WASP-60b, WASP-80b, WASP-103b, XO-3b) in order to update their planetary parameters and to constrain ...

Doomed Worlds. I. No New Evidence for Orbital Decay in a Long-term Survey of 43 Ultrahot Jupiters

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Ultrahot Jupiters (UHJs) are likely doomed by tidal forces to undergo orbital decay and eventual disruption by their stars, but the timescale over which this process unfolds is unknown. We present results from a long-term project to monitor UHJ transits.

PlanetPack software tool for exoplanets detection: coming new features

open access: yes, 2014
We briefly overview the new features of PlanetPack2, the forthcoming update of PlanetPack, which is a software tool for exoplanets detection and characterization from Doppler radial velocity data. Among other things, this major update brings parallelized

Ground-based detection of sodium in the transmission spectrum of exoplanet HD209458b

open access: yes, 2008
[Context] The first detection of an atmosphere around an extrasolar planet was presented by Charbonneau and collaborators in 2002. In the optical transmission spectrum of the transiting exoplanet HD209458b, an absorption signal from sodium was measured ...

Accounting for Transit Timing Detectability: Biases in Planetary Radius and Orbital Period

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Transit Timing Variations (TTVs) are deviations from the time an observer would expect to see an exoplanet transit its host star. In multiplanetary systems, significant TTVs may indicate the presence of another body in the system gravitationally ...
