Stellar jitter from variable gravitational redshift: implications for RV confirmation of habitable exoplanets
H. M. Cegla, C. A. Watson, T. R. Marsh +6
A variation of gravitational redshift, arising from stellar radius fluctuations, will introduce astrophysical noise into radial velocity measurements by shifting the centroid of th…
Thermal emission at 3.6-8 micron from WASP-19b: a hot Jupiter without a stratosphere orbiting an active star
D. R. Anderson, A. M. S. Smith, N. Madhusudhan +12
We report detection of thermal emission from the exoplanet WASP-19b at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8 and 8.0 micron. We used the InfraRed Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope to observe two…
WASP-36b: A new transiting planet around a metal-poor G-dwarf, and an investigation into analyses based on a single transit light curve
A. M. S. Smith, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +16
We report the discovery, from WASP and CORALIE, of a transiting exoplanet in a 1.54-d orbit. The host star, WASP-36, is a magnitude V = 12.7, metal-poor G2 dwarf (Teff = 5959 \pm 1…
Observational and Dynamical Characterization of Main-Belt Comet P/2010 R2 (La Sagra)

We present observations of comet-like main-belt object P/2010 R2 (La Sagra) obtained by Pan-STARRS 1 and the Faulkes Telescope-North on Haleakala in Hawaii, the University of Hawai…
Integral-field spectroscopy of (90482) Orcus-Vanth
B. Carry, D. Hestroffer, F. DeMeo +8
Aims. We seek to constrain the surface composition of the Trans-Neptunian Object (90482) Orcus and its small satellite Vanth, as well as their mass and density. Methods. We acquire…
High precision transit observations of the exoplanet WASP-13b with the RISE instrument
S. C. C. Barros, D. L. Pollacco, N. P. Gibson +3
WASP-13b is a sub-Jupiter mass exoplanet orbiting a G1V type star with a period of 4.35 days. The current uncertainty in its impact parameter (0 < b < 0.46) resulted in poorly defi…
WASP-50b: a hot Jupiter transiting a moderately active solar-type star
M. Gillon, A. P. Doyle, M. Lendl +22
We report the discovery by the WASP transit survey of a giant planet in a close orbit (0.0295+-0.0009 AU) around a moderately bright (V=11.6, K=10) G9 dwarf (0.89+-0.08 M_sun, 0.84…
A Change in the Lightcurve of Kuiper Belt Contact Binary (139775) 2001 QG298
Pedro Lacerda
New observations show that the lightcurve of Kuiper belt contact binary (139775) 2001 QG298 has changed substantially since the first observations in 2003. The 2010 lightcurve has…
A lower mass for the exoplanet WASP-21b
S. C. C. Barros, D. L. Pollacco, N. P. Gibson +6
We present high precision transit observations of the exoplanet WASP-21b, obtained with the RISE instrument mounted on 2.0m Liverpool Telescope. A transit model is fitted, coupled…
Main-Belt Comet 238P/Read Revisited
Henry H. Hsieh, Karen J. Meech, Jana Pittichova
We present a series of observations of the return of activity in main-belt comet 238P/Read. Using data obtained in July and August 2010 when 238P appeared to be largely inactive, w…
Physical Properties of Main-Belt Comet 176P/LINEAR
Henry H. Hsieh, Masateru Ishiguro, Pedro Lacerda +1
We present a physical characterization of main-belt comet 176P/LINEAR. Observations show the object exhibiting a fan-shaped tail in late 2005, but then becoming inactive in early 2…
WASP-44b, WASP-45b and WASP-46b: three short-period, transiting extrasolar planets
D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron, M. Gillon +14
We report the discovery of three extrasolar planets that transit their moderately bright (Vmag = 12-13) host stars. WASP-44b is a 0.89-MJup planet in a 2.42-day orbit around a G8V…
WASP-35b, WASP-48b and WASP-51b: Two new planets and an independent discovery of HAT-P-30b
B. Enoch, D. R. Anderson, S. C. C. Barros +36
We report the detection of WASP-35b, a planet transiting a metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -0.15) star in the Southern hemisphere, WASP-48b, an inflated planet which may have spun-up its slig…
WASP-43b: The closest-orbiting hot Jupiter
Coel Hellier, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +14
We report the discovery of WASP-43b, a hot Jupiter transiting a K7V star every 0.81 d. At 0.6-Msun the host star has the lowest mass of any star hosting a hot Jupiter. It also show…
