Ground-based detection of thermal emission from the exoplanet WASP-19b
We present an occultation of the newly discovered hot Jupiter system WASP-19, observed with the HAWK-I instrument on the VLT, in order to measure thermal emission from the planet's dayside at ~2 um. The light curve was analysed using a Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo method to find the eclipse depth a...
