MONTHLY NOTICES OF THE ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY, cilt.509, sa.4, ss.5102-5116, 2022 (SCI-Expanded)
We report the results of new transit observations for the three hot Jupiter-like planets, HATP-36b, HATP-56b, and WASP-52b, respectively. Transit timing variations (TTVs) are presented for these systems based on observations that span the period 2016-2020. The data were collected with the 0.6-m telescope at Adiyaman University (ADYU60, Turkey) and the 1.0 m telescope at TUBITAK National Observatory (TUG, Turkey). Global fits were performed to the combined light curves for each system along with the corresponding radial velocity (RV) data taken from the literature. The extracted parameters (for all three systems) are found to be consistent with the values from previous studies. Through fits to the combined mid-transit times data from our observations and the data available in the literature, an updated linear ephemeris is obtained for each system. Although a number of potential outliers are noted in the respective O-C diagrams, the majority of the data are consistent within the 3 sigma confidence level implying a lack of convincing evidence for the existence of additional objects in the systems studied.
