We used GTC instrument OSIRIS to obtain long-slit spectra in the optical range (520-1040 nm) of the planetary host star WASP-43 (and a reference star) during a full primary transit event and four partial transit observations. We integrated the stellar flux of both stars in different wavelength regions producing several light curves. We fitted transit models to these curves to measure the star-to-planet radius ratio, Rp/Rs, across wavelength among other physical parameters. We measure a Rp/Rs in the white light curve of 0.15988^{+0.00133}_{-0.00145}. We present a tentative detection of an excess in the planet-to-star radius ratio around the Na I doublet (588.9 nm, 589.5 nm) when compared to the nearby continuum at the 2.9-sigma level. We find no significant excess of the measured planet-to-star radius ratio around the K I doublet (766.5 nm, 769.9 nm) when compared to the nearby continuum. Combining our observations with previous published epochs, we refine the estimation of the orbital period. Using a linear ephemeris, we obtained a period of P=0.81347385 +/- 1.5 x 10^{-7} days. Using a quadratic ephemeris, we obtained a period of 0.81347688 +/- 8.6 x 10^{-7} days, and a change in this parameter of dP/dt = -0.15 +/- 0.06 sec/year. As previous results, this hints to the orbital decay of this planet although a timing analysis over several years needs to be made in order to confirm this.
We obtained long-slit optical spectroscopy of one transit of WASP-48b with the Optical System for Imaging and low-Intermediate-Resolution Integrated Spectroscopy (OSIRIS) spectrograph at the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC). We integrated the sp
We set out to study the atmosphere of WASP-80b, a warm inflated gas giant with an equilibrium temperature of $sim$800~K, using ground-based transmission spectroscopy covering the spectral range from 520~to~910~nm. The observations allow us to probe t
Context. The launch of the exoplanet space missions obtaining exquisite photometry from space has resulted in the discovery of thousands of planetary systems with very different physical properties and architectures. Among them, the exoplanet CoRoT-2
Exoplanets with relatively clear atmospheres are prime targets for detailed studies of chemical compositions and abundances in their atmospheres. Alkali metals have long been suggested to exhibit broad wings due to pressure broadening, but most of th
