THE TRANSIT LIGHT CURVE PROJECT. XIV. CONFIRMATION OF ANOMALOUS RADII FOR THE EXOPLANETS TRES-4b, HAT-P-3b, AND WASP-12b

We present transit photometry of three exoplanets, TrES-4b, HAT-P-3b, and WASP-12b, allowing for refined estimates of the systems' parameters. TrES-4b and WASP-12b were confirmed to be "bloated" planets, with radii of 1.706 [plus-minus] 0.056R [subscript Jup] and 1.736 [plus-minus] 0....
