Spitzer 3.6 and 4.5 μm full-orbit light curves of WASP-18

Spitzer 3.6 and 4.5 μm full-orbit light curves of WASP-18

We present new light curves of the massive hot Jupiter system WASP-18 obtained with the Spitzer spacecraft covering the entire orbit at 3.6 and 4.5 μm. These light curves are used to measure the amplitude, shape and phase of the thermal phase effect for WASP-18 b. We find that our …
