A General, Differentiable Transit Model for Ellipsoidal Occulters: Derivation, Application, and Forecast of Planetary Oblateness and Obliquity Constraints with JWST

Increasingly precise space-based photometry uncovers higher-order effects in transits, eclipses, and phase curves that can be used to characterize exoplanets in novel ways. The subtle signature induced by a rotationally deformed exoplanet is determined by the planet’s oblateness and rotational obliq...
