Planet Migration and Binary Companions: the Case of Hd 80606b
The exo-solar planet HD 80606b has a highly eccentric (e = 0.93) and tight (a = 0.47 AU) orbit. We study how it might arrive at such an orbit and how it has avoided being tidally circularized until now. The presence of a stellar companion to the host star suggests the possibility that the Kozai mechanism and tidal dissipation combined to draw the planet inward well after it formed: Kozai oscill...
متن کاملHD 209458 planetary transits from Hipparcos photometry ?
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 Hp band being observed during the transits. As a result of the long temporal baseline of more than 8 years between the Hipparcos and radial velocity measurements, an accurate orbital...
متن کاملHST/FGS Photometry of Planetary Transits of HD 209458
We present the data, and modeling and analysis results from the photometric monitoring of five planetary transits of HD 209458 using the Fine Guidance Sensors (FGS) onboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We have now included the output from all four FGS photometers in our data reduction and analysis increasing our S/N over our previous results. We have modeled the transits as an opaque spher...
متن کاملFive New Transits of the Super-Neptune HD 149026b
We present new photometry of HD 149026 spanning five transits of its “superNeptune” planet. In combination with previous data, we improve upon the determination of the planet-to-star radius ratio: Rp/R⋆ = 0.0491 +0.0018 −0.0005 . We find the planetary radius to be 0.71± 0.05 RJup, in accordance with previous theoretical models invoking a high metal abundance for the planet. The limiting error i...
متن کاملTransits and secondary eclipses of HD 189733 with Spitzer
We present limits on transit timing variations and secondary eclipse depth variations at 8 microns with the Spitzer Space Telescope IRAC camera. Due to the weak limb darkening in the infrared and uninterrupted observing, Spitzer provides the highest accuracy transit times for this bright system, in principle providing sensitivity to secondary planets of Mars mass in resonant orbits. Finally, th...
