Six occultations of the exoplanet TrES-3

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present photometry of the exoplanet host star TrES-3 spanning six occultations (secondary eclipses) of its giant planet.

Description

No flux decrements were detected, leading to 99%-confidence upper limits on the planet-to-star flux ratio of 2.4x10^-4^, 5.0x10^-4^, and 8.6x10^-4^ in the i-, z-, and R-bands respectively. The corresponding upper limits on the planet's geometric albedo are 0.30, 0.62, and 1.07.

The upper limit in the i-band rules out the presence of highly reflective clouds, and is only a factor of 2-3 above the predicted level of thermal radiation from the planet.
