Multiepoch Detections of the Extended Atmosphere and Transmission Spectra of KELT-9b with a 1.5 m Telescope

Irradiated Jovian atmospheres are complex and dynamic and can undergo temporal variations due to the close proximity of their parent stars. Of the Jovian planets that have been cataloged to date, KELT-9b is the hottest gas giant known, with an equilibrium temperature of 4050 K. We probe the temporal...
