Peculiar architectures for the WASP-53 and WASP-81 planet-hosting systems
Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Marion Neveu-VanMalle, Monika Lendl +16
We report the detection of two new systems containing transiting planets. Both were identified by WASP as worthy transiting planet candidates. Radial-velocity observations quickly…
First limits on the occurrence rate of short-period planets orbiting brown dwarfs
Matthias Y. He, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Michaël Gillon
Planet formation theories predict a large but still undetected population of short-period terrestrial planets orbiting brown dwarfs. Should specimens of this population be discover…
Prospects for detecting the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect of Earth-like planets: the test case of TRAPPIST-1b and c
Ryan Cloutier, Amaury H. M. J Triaud
The Rossiter-McLaughlin effect is the principal method of determining the sky-projected spin--orbit angle () of transiting planets. Taking the example of the recently discovered…
From dense hot Jupiter to low-density Neptune: The discovery of WASP-127b, WASP-136b and WASP-138b
K. W. F. Lam, F. Faedi, D. J. A. Brown +38
We report three newly discovered exoplanets from the SuperWASP survey. WASP-127b is a heavily inflated super-Neptune of mass 0.18 +/- 0.02 M_J and radius 1.37 +/- 0.04 R_J. This is…
A combined transmission spectrum of the Earth-sized exoplanets TRAPPIST-1 b and c
Julien de Wit, Hannah R. Wakeford, Michael Gillon +9
Three Earth-sized exoplanets were recently discovered close to the habitable zone of the nearby ultracool dwarf star TRAPPIST-1. The nature of these planets has yet to be determine…
Temperate Earth-sized planets transiting a nearby ultracool dwarf star
Michael Gillon, Emmanuel Jehin, Susan M. Lederer +12
Star-like objects with effective temperatures of less than 2,700 kelvin are referred to as ultracool dwarfs. This heterogeneous group includes stars of extremely low mass as well a…
WASP-157b, a Transiting Hot Jupiter Observed with K2
T. Močnik, D. R. Anderson, D. J. A. Brown +17
We announce the discovery of the transiting hot Jupiter WASP-157b in a 3.95-d orbit around a V = 12.9 G2 main-sequence star. This moderately inflated planet has a Saturn-like densi…
Five transiting hot Jupiters discovered using WASP-South, Euler and TRAPPIST: WASP-119 b, WASP-124 b, WASP-126 b, WASP-129 b and WASP-133 b
P. F. L. Maxted, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +17
We have used photometry from the WASP-South instrument to identify 5 stars showing planet-like transits in their light curves. The planetary nature of the companions to these stars…
Warm Jupiters are less lonely than hot Jupiters: close neighbours
Chelsea X. Huang, Yanqin Wu, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud
Exploiting the Kepler transit data, we uncover a dramatic distinction in the prevalence of sub-Jovian companions, between systems that contain hot Jupiters (periods inward of 10 da…
