Abstract:The benchmark hot Jupiter HD 189733 b has been a key target to lay out the foundations of comparative planetology for giant exoplanets. As such, HD 189733 b has been extensively studied across the electromagnetic spectrum. Here, we report the observation and analysis of three transit light curves of HD 189733 b obtained with Hubble/STIS in the near ultraviolet, the last remaining unexplored spectral window to be probed with present-day instrumentation for this planet. The NUV is a unique window for atmospheric… Show more
