TL;DR
This paper reviews current techniques for measuring key exoplanet transit parameters such as transit times, planetary mass, radius, and spin-orbit angle, emphasizing their precision and significance.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive overview of the most precise measurement methods for fundamental exoplanet parameters from transit observations.
Findings
Transit times can be measured with high precision.
Planetary mass and radius are accurately determined through transit data.
Projected spin-orbit angles are measurable with current techniques.
Abstract
By observing the transits of exoplanets, one may determine many fundamental system parameters. I review current techniques and results for the parameters that can be measured with the greatest precision, specifically, the transit times, the planetary mass and radius, and the projected spin-orbit angle.
