Transits are key to our understanding of exoplanets. In this talk, I will describe a novel technique we have developed to measure the shape and rotation of exoplanets from their Kepler transit light curves. ... This rapid rotation causes their shapes to become oblate. ... I present the first search for rotationally oblate gas giants in the Kepler dataset, and a tentative detection for the oblateness of Kepler-39b, a brown dwarf in a 21-day period orbit. ...

The theory of radiative transfer in inhomogeneous atmospheres was developed ( Yanovytskij E.G. ) . ... Calculations shown that the vertical movement of gas and aerosol in the atmosphere of giant planets with velocity w = (0.1-0.5) m/s determines the capacity of visible clouds and therefore affects their brightness characteristics (A. P. Vidmachenko). ...

... The planets differ greatly in size and properties, and their fields differ too. ... In 1959, after the Earth's radiation belt had been discovered, Frank Drake observed Jupiter and concluded from the relative intensities in a range of wavelengths that the signal was probably emitted by electrons trapped in a strong magnetic field. Then in 1973 the space probe Pioneer 10 passed by Jupiter and found there, sure enough, an enormous planetary magnetic field and a very intense radiation belt. ...

In ancient times the solar system was thought to be the whole Universe, so the study of planetary motions was cosmology. ... The planets other than the Moon and Sun generally move West to East through the stars, but occasionally stop and move in the opposite direction ( retrograde motion). In order to explain the retrograde motion of the planets, the geocentric model of the Solar System shown above puts the planets on small circles called epicycles . ...

Because of trajectory and pointing angle constraints the planet could be observed from Mariner 10 only over a small range of phase angles between about 75o and 110o. Therefore the photometric investigations are restricted to measuring the distribution of brightness on the Mercurian disk. ...
