The WASP-South search for transiting exoplanets

Coel Hellier, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +9

Since 2006 WASP-South has been scanning the Southern sky for transiting exoplanets. Combined with Geneva Observatory radial velocities we have so far found over 30 transiting exopl…

WASP-34b: a near-grazing transiting sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet in a hierarchical triple system

B. Smalley, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +19

We report the discovery of WASP-34b, a sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet transiting its 10.4-magnitude solar-type host star (1SWASP J110135.89-235138.4; TYC 6636-540-1) every 4.3177 days…

The spin-orbit angles of the transiting exoplanets WASP-1b, WASP-24b, WASP-38b and HAT-P-8b from Rossiter-McLaughlin observations

E. K. Simpson, D. Pollacco, A. Collier Cameron +18

We present observations of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect for the transiting exoplanet systems WASP-1, WASP-24, WASP-38 and HAT-P-8, and deduce the orientations of the planetary or…

Spin-orbit angle measurements for six southern transiting planets; New insights into the dynamical origins of hot Jupiters

Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Andrew Collier Cameron, Didier Queloz +14

For transiting planets, the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect allows the measurement of the sky-projected angle beta between the stellar rotation axis and a planet's orbital axis. Using t…

WASP-8b: a retrograde transiting planet in a multiple system

Didier Queloz, David Anderson, Andrew Collier Cameron +11

We report the discovery of WASP-8, a transiting planet of 2.25+-0.08 M_Jup on a strongly inclined eccentric 8.15-day orbit, moving in a retrograde direction to the rotation of its…

CoRoT-10b: a giant planet in a 13.24 day eccentric orbit

A. S. Bonomo, A. Santerne, R. Alonso +47

The space telescope CoRoT searches for transiting extrasolar planets by continuously monitoring the optical flux of thousands of stars in several fields of view. We report the disc…
