Artist's Illustration of HAT-P-11b Transmission Spectrum Plot
A plot of the transmission spectrum for exoplanet HAT-P-11b, with Kepler, Hubble WFC3, and Spitzer transits combined. The results show a robust detection of water absorption in the WFC3 data. Transmission spectra of selected atmospheric models are plotted for comparison. Credits...

| Data Description | Note: Observations from NASA's Kepler Mission and Spitzer Space Telescope contributed to the discovery of HAT-P-11b. Hubble data for this release of HAT-P-11b were obtained from the following HST proposal: : D. Deming (University of Maryland, College Park, and NASA Ames/Astrobiology Institute), H. Knutson (Caltech), N. Madhusudhan (University of Cambridge/Institute of Astronomy), and K. Todorov (ETH Zurich). The science team comprises: J. Fraine (University of Maryland, College Park, Institute of Astrophysics/Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, and Caltech), D. Deming (University of Maryland, College Park, and NASA Ames/Astrobiology Institute), B. Benneke and H. Knutson (Caltech), A. Jordan and N. Espinoza (Institute of Astrophysics/Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile), N. Madhusudhan (University of Cambridge/Institute of Astronomy), A. Wilkins (University of Maryland, College Park), and K. Todorov (ETH Zurich). |
