The Doppler shadow of WASP-3b A tomographic analysis of Rossiter-McLaughlin observations
- Abstract:
-
Context. Hot-Jupiter planets must form at large separations from their host stars where the temperatures are cool enough for their cores to condense. They then migrate inwards to their current observed orbital separations. Different theories of how this migration occurs lead to varying distributions of orbital eccentricity and the alignment between the rotation axis of the star and the orbital axis of the planet. Aims. The spin-orbit alignment of a transiting system is revealed via the Rossit...
