Bayesian mass and age estimates for transiting exoplanet host stars
P. F. L. Maxted, A. M. Serenelli, J. Southworth
The mean density of a star transited by a planet, brown dwarf or low mass star can be accurately measured from its light curve. This measurement can be combined with other observat…
The Two-Colour EMCCD Instrument for the Danish 1.54m Telescope and SONG
Jesper Skottfelt, D. M. Bramich, M. Hundertmark +13
We report on the implemented design of a two-colour instrument based on electron multiplying CCD (EMCCD) detectors. This instrument is currently installed at the Danish 1.54m teles…
WASP-94 A and B planets: hot-Jupiter cousins in a twin-star system
M. Neveu-VanMalle, D. Queloz, D. R. Anderson +17
We report the discovery of two hot-Jupiter planets, each orbiting one of the stars of a wide binary system. WASP-94A (2MASS 20550794-3408079) is an F8 type star hosting a transitin…
Tracing CNO exposed layers in the Algol-type binary system u Her
V. Kolbas, A. Dervisoglu, K. Pavlovski +1
The chemical composition of stellar photospheres in mass-transferring binary systems is a precious diagnostic of the nucleosynthesis processes that occur deep within stars, and pre…
KIC 10526294: a slowly rotating B star with rotationally split, quasi-equally spaced gravity modes
P. I. Pápics, E. Moravveji, C. Aerts +4
Massive stars are important for the chemical enrichment of the universe. Since internal mixing processes influence their lives, it is very important to place constraints on the cor…
On the incidence of eclipsing Am binary systems in the SuperWASP survey
B. Smalley, J. Southworth, O. I. Pintado +18
The results of a search for eclipsing Am star binaries using photometry from the SuperWASP survey are presented. The light curves of 1742 Am stars fainter than V = 8.0 were analyse…
