Transiting Exoplanets

List of transiting exoplanets

Discovered By Non-Transit Method

 * Gliese 436 System (2004) -
 * HD 17156 System -

Discovered by OGLE
Planets discovered during one of the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiments which searches in the Galactic bulge.
 * OGLE-TR-10 System -
 * OGLE-TR-56 System -
 * OGLE-TR-111 System -
 * OGLE-TR-113 System -
 * OGLE-TR-132 System -

Discovered By TrES
Planets found with the Trans-Atlantic Exoplanet Survey (TrES), an effort involving the "Sleuth" telescope at Caltech's Palomar Observatory in San Diego County, the Planet Search Survey Telescope (PSST) at Lowell Observatory near Flagstaff, Arizona, and the "STellar Astrophysics and Research on Exoplanets (Stare) telescope in the Canary Islands.
 * GSC 02652-01324 System -
 * GSC 03549-02811 System -
 * GSC 03089-00929 System -
 * GSC 02620-00648 System -

Discovered By WASP Project
Planets discovered during the UK-led SuperWASP (Wide Angle Search for Planets) program  (see articles  ).
 * WASP-1 System -
 * WASP-2 System -
 * WASP-3 System -
 * WASP-4 System -
 * WASP-5 System -

Discovered By SWEEPS Project
Planets detected by the SWEEPS Project (Sagittarius Window Eclipsing Extrasolar Planet Search), which scanned for transiting planets in the region of the Galactic Bulge. Because these stars tend to be so distant and faint, a precise measurement for the planets' mass and radius is not possible. Several unconfirmed planets detected by this survey are "Ultra Short Period Planets", which can only exist around small Red Dwarves (such as Sweeps 10). The names of the stars and planets are identical for these systems.
 * SWEEPS-04 System -
 * SWEEPS-11 System -

Discovered by HAT Project
Planets discovered by the Hungarian Automated Telescope, a network of six small robotic telescopes, four at Arizona's Wipple Observatory and two atop Hawaii's Mauna Kea.
 * HAT-P-1 System -
 * HAT-P-2 System -
 * HAT-P-3 System -
 * HAT-P-4 System -
 * HAT-P-5 System -
 * HAT-P-6 System -

Discovered by COROT Satelite
Planets discovered by the European COROT satelite, which is intended to be able to detect Earth-sized planets.
 * CoRoT-Exo-1 System (May 07) -
 * CoRoT-Exo-2 System (Dec 07) -

Discovered by XO Project
Planets detected with light data collected by the XO Telescope, which was made by Peter McCullough with commercialy available parts. Amateur and professional astronomers cooperate to find these planets.
 * XO-1 System (May 06) -
 * XO-2 System -
 * XO-3 System (May 07) -

Unsorted Systems

 * HD 189733 System-
 * HD 209458 System -
 * HD 149026 System -
