Observational studies of transiting extrasolar planets (invited review)
John Southworth
The study of transiting extrasolar planets is only 15 years old, but has matured into a rich area of research. I review the observational aspects of this work, concentrating on the…
High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. VII. The ultra-short period planet WASP-103
John Southworth, L. Mancini, S. Ciceri +25
We present 17 transit light curves of the ultra-short period planetary system WASP-103, a strong candidate for the detection of tidally-induced orbital decay. We use these to estab…
Orbital periods of cataclysmic variables identified by the SDSS. IX. NTT photometry of eight eclipsing and three magnetic systems
John Southworth, C. Tappert, B. T. Gaensicke +1
We report the discovery of eclipses and the first orbital period measurements for four cataclysmic variables, plus the first orbital period measurements for one known eclipsing and…
Multiple star systems observed with CoRoT and Kepler (invited review)
John Southworth
The CoRoT and Kepler satellites were the first space platforms designed to perform high-precision photometry for a large number of stars. Multiple systems display a wide variety of…
The DEBCat detached eclipsing binary catalogue
John Southworth
Detached eclipsing binary star systems are our primary source of measured physical properties of normal stars. I introduce DEBCat: a catalogue of detached eclipsing binaries with m…
Six newly-discovered hot Jupiters transiting F/G stars: WASP-87b, WASP-108b, WASP-109b, WASP-110b, WASP-111b & WASP-112b
D. R. Anderson, D. J. A. Brown, A. Collier Cameron +21
We present the discoveries of six transiting hot Jupiters: WASP-87b, WASP-108b, WASP-109b, WASP-110b, WASP-111b and WASP-112b. The planets have masses of 0.51--2.2 an…
