WASP-8b: CHARACTERIZATION OF A COOL AND ECCENTRIC EXOPLANET WITH<i>SPITZER</i>
WASP-8b has 2.18 times Jupiter's mass and is on an eccentric (e = 0.31) 8.16 day orbit. With a time-averaged equilibrium temperature of 948 K, it is one of the least-irradiated hot Jupiters observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope. We have analyzed six photometric light curves of WASP-8b during secondary …
