First Ground-Based Adaptive Optics Observations of Neptune and Proteus
High angular resolution (0.15”) K-band images of Neptune were obtained in August 1995, with the University-of-Hawaii adaptive optics system mounted on the 3.6-m Canada-France-Hawaii telescope. The images show bright high contrast features that are believed to be high altitude clouds. They confirm that low latitude (< 30 ̊) cloud activity has shifted since Voyager from the south hemisphere to the...
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 کاملPhotometry of Irregular Satellites of Uranus and Neptune
We present BVR photometric colors of six Uranian and two Neptunian irregular satellites, collected using the Magellan Observatory (Las Campanas, Chile) and the Keck Observatory, (Manua Kea, Hawaii). The colors range from neutral to light red, and like the Jovian and the Saturnian irregulars (Grav et al. 2003a) there is an apparent lack of the extremely red objects found among the Centaurs and K...
متن کاملPushing the precision limit of ground-based eclipse photometry
Until recently, it was considered by many that ground-based photometry could not reach the high cadence sub-mmag regime because of the presence of the atmosphere. Indeed, high frequency atmospheric noises (mainly scintillation) limit the precision that high SNR photometry can reach within small time bins. If one is ready to damage the sampling of his photometric time-series, binning the data (o...
متن کاملA new Neptune - mass planet orbiting HD 219828 ⋆
Two years ago a new benchmark for the planetary survey was set with the discoveries of three extrasolar planets with masses below 20M⊕. In particular, the serendipitous discovery of the 14M⊕ planet around µ Ara found with HARPS with a semi-amplitude of only 4 m s −1 put in evidence the tremendous potential of HARPS for the search of this class of very low-mass planets. Aiming to discovering new...
