Detecting Planetary Oblateness in the Era of JWST: A Case Study of Kepler-167e
Planets may be rotationally flattened, and their oblateness thus provides useful information on their formation and evolution. Here, we develop a new algorithm that can compute the transit light curve due to an oblate planet very efficiently and use it to study the detectability of planet oblateness...
