Infrared spectroscopy of transiting exoplanets
Abstract
The development of infrared spectroscopy of transiting exoplanets offers a new opportunity for characterizing exoplanetary atmospheres. In this paper, we review the properties of primary and secondary transit observations, and we discuss the expected nature of infrared spectra. Then we select a few objects that appear to be well suited for near - infrared observations.
