WASP-33b is a retrograde hot Jupiter with a period of 1.2 days orbiting around a rapidly rotating and pulsating A-type star. A previous study found that the transit chord of WASP-33b had changed slightly from 2008 to 2014 based on Doppler tomographic measurements. They attributed the change to orbital precession caused by the non-zero oblateness of the host star and the misaligned orbit. We aim to confirm and more precisely model the precession behavior using additional Doppler tomographic data of WASP-33b obtained with the High Dispersion Spectrograph on the 8.2m Subaru telescope in 2011, as well as the datasets used in the previous study. Using equations of a long-term orbital precession, we constrain the stellar gravitational quadrupole moment $J_{2}=(9.14pm 0.51)times 10^{-5}$ and the angle between the stellar spin axis and the line of sight $i_{star}=96^{+10}_{-14}$ deg. These values update that the host star is more spherical and viewed more equator than the previous study. We also estimate that the precession period is $sim$840 years. We also find that the precession amplitude of WASP-33b is $sim$67 deg and WASP-33b transits in front of the host star for only $sim$20% of the whole precession period.

We report ground-based observations at 0.91 microns of the occultation of the hot Jupiter WASP-33b by its A5 host star. We measure the planet to be 0.109 +/- 0.030 per cent as bright as its host star at 0.91 microns. This corresponds to a brightness
temperature, T_B = 3620 +200 -250 K, significantly higher than the zero-albedo equilibrium temperature for both isotropic re-radiation (2750 +/- 37 K) and uniform day-side only re-radiation (3271 +/- 44 K), but consistent with the zero-redistribution temperature (3515 +/- 47 K). This indicates that the heat redistribution from the day-side of WASP-33b to the night side is inefficient, and further suggest that there is immediate re-radiation, and therefore little or no redistribution, of heat within the day-side. We also detected the stellar pulsations of WASP-33, which we model as the sum of four sinusoids, with periods of between 42 and 77 minutes and amplitudes of 0.5 to 1.5 mmag.
Hot-Jupiter planets must form at large separations from their host stars where the temperatures are cool enough for their cores to condense. They then migrate inwards to their current observed orbital separations. Different theories of how this migra
tion occurs lead to varying distributions of orbital eccentricity and the alignment between the rotation axis of the star and the orbital axis of the planet. The spin-orbit alignment of a transiting system is revealed via the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect, which is the anomaly present in the radial velocity measurements of the rotating star during transit due to the planet blocking some of the starlight. In this paper we aim to measure the spin-orbit alignment of the WASP-3 system via a new way of analysing the Rossiter-McLaughlin observations. We apply a new tomographic method for analysing the time variable asymmetry of stellar line profiles caused by the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. This new method eliminates the systematic error inherent in previous methods used to analyse the effect. We find a value for the projected stellar spin rate of v sin i = 13.9 pm 0.03 km/s which is in agreement with previous measurements but has a much higher precision. The system is found to be well aligned which favours an evolutionary history for WASP-3b involving migration through tidal interactions with a protoplanetary disc. Using gyrochronology we estimate the age of the star to be ~300 Myr with an upper limit of 2 Gyr from comparison with isochrones.
We present the detection and characterization of the full-orbit phase curve and secondary eclipse of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-33b at optical wavelengths, along with the pulsation spectrum of the host star. We analyzed data collected by the Transiti
ng Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) in sector 18. WASP-33b belongs to a very short list of highly irradiated exoplanets that were discovered from the ground and were later visited by TESS. The host star of WASP-33b is of delta Scuti-type and shows nonradial pulsations in the millimagnitude regime, with periods comparable to the period of the primary transit. These completely deform the photometric light curve, which hinders our interpretations. By carrying out a detailed determination of the pulsation spectrum of the host star, we find 29 pulsation frequencies with a signal-to-noise ratio higher than 4. After cleaning the light curve from the stellar pulsations, we confidently report a secondary eclipse depth of 305.8 +/- 35.5 parts-per-million (ppm), along with an amplitude of the phase curve of 100.4 +/- 13.1 ppm and a corresponding westward offset between the region of maximum brightness and the substellar point of 28.7 +/- 7.1 degrees, making WASP-33b one of the few planets with such an offset found so far. Our derived Bond albedo, A_B = 0.369 +/- 0.050, and heat recirculation efficiency, epsilon = 0.189 +/- 0.014, confirm again that he behavior of WASP-33b is similar to that of other hot Jupiters, despite the high irradiation received from its host star. By connecting the amplitude of the phase curve to the primary transit and depths of the secondary eclipse, we determine that the day- and nightside brightness temperatures of WASP-33b are 3014 +/- 60 K and 1605 +/- 45 K, respectively. From the detection of photometric variations due to gravitational interactions, we estimate a planet mass of M_P = 2.81 +/- 0.53 M$_J.
HD 15082 (WASP-33) is the hottest and fastest rotating star known to harbor a transiting extrasolar planet (WASP-33b). The lack of high precision radial velocity (RV) data stresses the need for precise light curve analysis and gathering further RV da
ta. By using available photometric and RV data, we perform a blend analysis, compute more accurate system parameters, confine the planetary mass and attempt to cast light on the observed transit anomalies. We combine the original HATNet observations and various followup data to jointly analyze the signal content and extract the transit component and use our RV data to aid the global parameter determination. The blend analysis of the combination of multicolor light curves yields the first independent confirmation of the planetary nature of WASP-33b. We clearly identify three frequency components in the 15-21 1/day regime with amplitudes 7-5 mmag. These frequencies correspond to the delta Scuti-type pulsation of the host star. None of these pulsation frequencies or their low-order linear combinations are in close resonance with the orbital frequency. We show that these pulsation components explain some but not all of the observed transit anomalies. The grand-averaged transit light curve shows that there is a ~1.5 mmag brightening shortly after the planet passes the mid-transit phase. Although the duration and amplitude of this brightening varies, it is visible even through the direct inspections of the individual transit events (some 40-60% of the followup light curves show this phenomenon). We suggest that the most likely explanation of this feature is the presence of a well-populated spot belt which is highly inclined to the orbital plane. This geometry is consistent with the inference from the spectroscopic anomalies. Finally, we constrain the planetary mass to M_p=3.27+/-0.73 M_J by using our RV data collected by the TRES spectrograph.
We analyze the high-resolution emission spectrum of WASP-33b taken using the High Dispersion Spectrograph (R,$approx$,165,000) on the 8.2-m Subaru telescope. The data cover $lambda$,$approx$,$6170$-$8817$,AA, divided over 30 spectral orders. The tell
uric and stellar lines are removed using a de-trending algorithm, {sc SysRem}, before cross-correlating with planetary spectral templates. We calculate the templates assuming a 1-D plane-parallel hydrostatic atmosphere including continuum opacity of bound-free H$^{-}$ and Rayleigh scattering by H$_{2}$ with a range of constant abundances of Fe,{sc i}. Using a likelihood-mapping analysis, we detect an Fe,{sc i} emission signature at 6.4-$sigma$ located at $K_{mathrm{p}}$ of 226.0,$^{+2.1}_{-2.3}$,km,s$^{-1}$and $v_{mathrm{sys}}$ of -3.2,$^{+2.1}_{-1.8}$,km,s$^{-1}$ -- consistent with the planets expected velocity in the literature. We also confirm the existence of a thermal inversion in the day-side of the planet which is very likely to be caused by the presence of Fe,{sc i} and previously-detected TiO in the atmosphere. This makes WASP-33b one of the prime targets to study the relative contributions of both species to the energy budget of an ultra-hot Jupiter.
