The first planet detected in the WTS: an inflated hot-Jupiter in a 3.35 day orbit around a late F-star [ERRATUM]
M. Cappetta, R. P. Saglia, J. L. Birkby +35
We report the discovery of WTS-1b, the first extrasolar planet found by the WFCAM Transit Survey, which began observations at the 3.8-m United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (UKIRT) in…
Spectroscopic follow-up of L- and T-type proper-motion member candidates in the Pleiades
M. R. Zapatero Osorio, V. J. S. Béjar, E. L. Martín +9
(Abridged) We report on the near-infrared low-resolution spectroscopy and red optical (Z-band) photometry of seven proper-motion, very low-mass substellar member candidates of the…
Search for bright nearby M dwarfs with Virtual Observatory tools
M. Aberasturi, J. A. Caballero, B. Montesinos +3
Using Virtual Observatory tools, we cross-matched the Carlsberg Meridian 14 and the 2MASS Point Source catalogs to select candidate nearby bright M dwarfs distributed over ~ 25,000…
Search for free-floating planetary-mass objects in the Pleiades
M. R. Zapatero Osorio, M. C. Gálvez Ortiz, G. Bihain +8
(Abridged) We aim at identifying the least massive population of the solar metallicity, young (120 Myr), nearby (133.5 pc) Pleiades star cluster with the ultimate goal of understan…
WTS-2 b: a hot Jupiter orbiting near its tidal destruction radius around a K-dwarf
J. L. Birkby, M. Cappetta, P. Cruz +34
We report the discovery of WTS-2 b, an unusually close-in 1.02-day hot Jupiter (Mp=1.12MJ, Rp=1.363RJ) orbiting a K2V star, which has a possible gravitationally-bound M-dwarf compa…
