New Results from Ground-Based Transit Spectroscopy Observations Jacob Bean Harvard-Smithsonian CfA University of Chicago

A new technique for ground-based transit spectroscopy Observation strategy: Time-series spectroscopy with multi-object spectrographs during transits/occultations Simultaneous spectra of target and multiple reference stars during transits – “differential spectroscopy” Wide slits of 12” eliminate slit losses

Goals… Reveal the bulk composition of the planet. Resolve the tension between conflicting results. submitted to ApJ and available on astroph New Results for GJ1214b:
