Talk:HD 189733 b

message: This planet will be in the news for a time. Expressions that urgently need to be expanded to be more user-friendly to the moderately-prepared reader are: "transit depth", "semi-amplitude", "flux decrement". An appositive phrase or a footnote would do: imagine that you are writing in the New York Times Science section for a literate general public. --Wetman 23:58, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Another term that is not apparent to the educated layperson: "spectroscopically observed".  As an example of an article with suitable language about this topic (HD 189733 b), see http://www.technewsworld.com/story/57321.html  --Glacialfury 17:52, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would disagree with that statement.  The term "spectroscopically observed" entered basic discourse in the 1970s, and is quite common in 2009.  Sounds like I'm kidding, but I'm not. Viriditas (talk) 08:34, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: To be more user-friendly

message: This is highly controversial. The amount of polarisation detected is greater than is predicted possible by models, and the result has been refuted twice now by another group using more sensitive equipment.

thread_title:  Controversy Surrounding the Polarimetric Detection of HD 189733 b 

message: I've just found a NASA website (http://www.nasa.gov/topics/universe/features/exoplanetHouseOfHorrors.html) which says that this planet has winds which could top out at about 22,000 mph (or about 35,000 kph).  Is this website a sufficiently good source to insert this information into the article (please note, I am fairly new to Wikipedia-editing, so I'm not too sure about sources yet).

replies: text: The high winds appear, from this article, to be a hypothesis and not a conclusion directly derived from observations. In principle the spectroscopic data that revealed the presence of the atmosphere should also be able to reveal variations in it's radial velocity (red/blue shift) and so indicate the range of wind speeds on the planet as well as the speed of rotation of the planet as a whole.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.71.43.37 (talk) 14:23, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

message: Note to self: information from this NASA article should be included on this page. Note to others: if you have some time to do this, please do. I'm not sure when I'll have time to do this myself.     — SkyLined (talk) 23:25, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Add info 

message: It's been revealed that the planet is blue (http://www.spacetelescope.org/static/archives/releases/science_papers/heic1311.pdf).  Shouldn't the article reflect this?

replies: text: How is the high temperature of the planet affecting its color? Does it reflect significantly more blue light than it emits red light due to its high temperature? --Artman40 (talk) 15:13, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Update pictures?

message: There seems to be an issue of wording in this section, but I'm not entirely sure how to repair it. It seems like the first sentence means to offer a reason why the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect would not be useful in this situation, but then defines the effect without addressing that. --Marx01 Tell me about it 19:58, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
