The field of exoplanetology has evolved significantly from its beginnings in the 1990s, gradually shifting emphasis from the detection of new exoplanets to characterisation of those already discovered. Simultaneously, considerable progress has been made in the area of automatisation of both instruments and data reduction techniques, leading to an ever-growing influx of new data, discoveries and facts about the planets outside of the Solar System. Observations of transiting exoplanets can be divided into two major themes: surveys, designed to find new planetary candidates; and follow-up observa

Circumbinary planets are bodies that orbit both components in a binary star system. This thesis focuses on transits of these planets, which with the aid of the Kepler space telescope have recently led to the discovery of several such objects. First, transit timing variations - departures from strict periodicity in the transit times - are studied. These arise from both the motion of the host stars and relatively rapid precession of the planet’s orbit. Limits on the maximum possible transit timing variation are derived, and tested against N-body simulations of simulated circumbinary systems. The

Noise levels of different magnitudes are added to the simulations and the minimal signal-to-noise required for detection of the atmosphere is estimated.

The only way to measure the diameter of a planet outside the Solar System is if it transits its host star. Transit data combined with radial velocity (RV) data give an exoplanet's mass.

The study of magnetic fields on low-mass stars is important due to their ubiquity. They are responsible for phenomena spanning a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. Over the last two decades, the Zeeman-Doppler imaging (ZDI) technique has been used to study the topologies of stellar magnetic fields. A great deal has been learnt about how the magnetic characteristics of cool dwarfs vary as a function of parameters such as mass, rotation or age. In this thesis, I assemble a sample of stars with Zeeman-Doppler maps. I study their poloidal and toroidal components as a function of fundamenta

The WASP project has discovered many transiting gas giant exoplanets. Some of these exoplanet systems have been observed by the K2 space-based telescope. The much higher photometric precision, shorter cadence and extended continuous follow-up observations provided by the K2 mission enabled the most detailed photometric characterization yet of the WASP and other planetary systems presented in this thesis, which contributes to our understanding of how planets form and evolve. I analysed the majority of transiting exoplanet systems observed by the K2 in the 1-min short-cadence mode within the fir

The field of transiting extrasolar planets and especially the study of their atmospheres is one of the youngest and most dynamic subjects in current astrophysics. To study the atmospheres of those foreign worlds, we typically require a 10^−4 to 10^−5 level of accuracy in flux. Currently available instruments were not designed with these precisions in mind. Calibrating an instrument without knowing its response function at the required level has become the central challenge of exoplanetary spectroscopy. A variety of parametric correction models are used in the literature. These show high degene

We have used the Spitzer Space Telescope to observe two transiting planetary systems orbiting low-mass stars discovered in the Kepler K2 mission. The system K2-3 (EPIC 201367065) hosts three planets, while K2-26 (EPIC 202083828) hosts a single planet. Observations of all four objects in these two systems confirm and refine the orbital and physical parameters of the planets. The refined orbital information and more precise planet radii possible with Spitzer will be critical for future observations of these and other K2 targets. For K2-3b we find marginally significant evidence for a transit tim

Host star metallicity provides a measure of the conditions in protoplanetary disks at the time of planet formation. Using a sample of over 20,000 Kepler stars with spectroscopic metallicities from the LAMOST survey, we explore how the exoplanet population depends on host star metallicity as a function of orbital period and planet size. We find that exoplanets with orbital periods less than 10 days are preferentially found around metal-rich stars ([Fe/H] similar or equal to 0.15 +/- 0.05 dex). The occurrence rates of these hot exoplanets increases to similar to 30% for super-solar metallicity s

The discovery of exoplanets represents one of the greatest scientific revolutions in history, and exoplanetary science has rapidly become uniquely positioned to address profound questions about the origins of life, and about humanity's place (and future) in the cosmos. Since the discovery of the first exoplanet over two decades ago, the radial velocity (RV) method has been one of the most productive techniques for discovering new planets. It has also become indispensable for characterising exoplanets detected via other techniques, notably transit photometry. Unfortunately, signals intrinsic to

Nous cherchons à mettre en évidence l'influence des hétérogénéités de température, de structure ou de composition des atmosphères sur leurs observations. Dans le années à venir, de plus en plus d'appareils vont permettre l'observation par transmission des atmosphères d'exoplanètes. Toutefois, les outils numériques permettant de contraindre ces dernières reposent sur des modèles simples à une dimension. Ils supposent en effet des atmosphères ne possédant qu'une structure verticale (le climat est le même en tout point de la surface, la composition ou la température n'évolue qu'avec l'altitude).

The first part of this thesis describes searches for additional transiting planets in known exoplanet systems, using time series photometry gathered as part of the NASA EPOXI Mission. Using the EPOXI light curves spanning weeks for each star, we searched six exoplanetary systems for signatures of additional transiting planets. These six systems include five hosts to hot Jupiters: HAT-P-4, TrES-3, TrES-2, WA

This dissertation investigates two stellar systems known to contain extrasolar planets. It is comprised of five chapters that are readily divided into three independent but related analyses. Chapter 1 reports on the analysis of low signal-to-noise secondary-eclipse observations of the Neptune-sized exoplanet GJ 436b using the Spitzer Space Telescope in multiple infrared channels. The measured wavelength-dependent eclipse depths provide constraints on the planet's dayside atmospheric composition and thermal profile. The analysis indicates that GJ 436b's atmosphere is abundant in carbon

The hypothesis is that the lensing caused by an exo-planet could distort the structures of a radio background, for instancea H II region. It cannot be done with todays telescope but with thesecond incarnation of the Square Kilometer Array (SKA), currently inits design phase we deem it possible. In order to test this hypothesis weconstructed a simulation that creates a simple background structurewith variable scale and then produces simulated images such as theones achievable with the SKA.
