A giant planet undergoing extreme ultraviolet irradiation by its hot massive-star host

B. Scott Gaudi, Keivan G. Stassun, Karen A. Collins +57

The amount of ultraviolet irradiation and ablation experienced by a planet depends strongly on the temperature of its host star. Of the thousands of extra-solar planets now known,…

Angular Momentum Evolution of Young Stars in the Nearby Scorpius-Centaurus OB Association

Samuel N. Mellon, Eric E. Mamajek, Thomas E. Oberst +1

We report the results of a study of archival SuperWASP light curves for stars in Scorpius-Centaurus (Sco-Cen), the nearest OB association. We use SuperWASP time-series photometry t…

WASP-167b/KELT-13b: Joint discovery of a hot Jupiter transiting a rapidly-rotating F1V star

L. Y. Temple, C. Hellier, M. D. Albrow +46

We report the joint WASP/KELT discovery of WASP-167b/KELT-13b, a transiting hot Jupiter with a 2.02-d orbit around a = 10.5, F1V star with [Fe/H] = 0.1 0.1. The 1.5 R$_{\…

KELT-18b: Puffy Planet, Hot Host, Probably Perturbed

Kim K. McLeod, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Ryan J. Oelkers +53

We report the discovery of KELT-18b, a transiting hot Jupiter in a 2.87d orbit around the bright (V=10.1), hot, F4V star BD+60 1538 (TYC 3865-1173-1). We present follow-up photomet…
