Measurements of the spin-orbit angle provide us a unique and valuable opportunity to understand the origin of close-in giant exoplanets, called \"hot Jupiters\".\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first method introduced involves observations of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect (RM effect). The author points out the issues with the previous theoretical modeling of the RM effect and derives a new and improved theory. Applications of the new theory to observational data are also presented for a number of remarkable systems, and the author shows that the new theory minimizes the systematic errors by applying it to the observational data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author also describes another method for constraining the spin-orbit angle: by combining the measurements of stellar flux variations due to dark spots on the stellar surface, with the projected stellar rotational velocity measured via spectroscopy, the spin-orbit angles \"along the line-of-sight\" are constrained for the transiting exoplanetary systems reported by the Kepler space telescope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Year: \u003c\/strong\u003e2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImprint: \u003c\/strong\u003eSpringer Japan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFormat: H\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWeight (Gram): 3829\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teruyuki Hirano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41271197106354,"sku":"9784431545859","price":2876335.64,"currency_code":"IDR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0502\/5382\/4178\/products\/4431545859.01_SCLZZZZZZZ.jpg?v=1636107225","url":"https:\/\/readabook.store\/en-id\/products\/9784431545859","provider":"READABOOK BY ALKEM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
