Abstract
If the orbital inclination of an extra-solar planet is close to 90°, the planet will transit through the line-of-sight from Earth towards the star. During transit phases, the stellar light will pass through the planetary atmosphere, and absorption lines, caused by atoms/molecules in the planet's atmosphere, may be detected in high-resolution spectroscopic observations. We have searched for absorption features in spectra of 51 Peg, tau Boo and HD209458 during tansits of their planets through the lines of sight. Spectra in the optical wavelength range were taken using the UES spectrograph at the 4m william Herschel telescope at La Palma, Spain.
