Following the TraCS of exoplanets with Pan-Planets: Wendelstein-1b and Wendelstein-2b
Christian Obermeier, Jana Steuer, Hanna Kellermann +13
Hot Jupiters seem to get rarer with decreasing stellar mass. The goal of the Pan-Planets transit survey was the detection of such planets and a statistical characterization of thei…
Search for giant planets in M67 IV: survey results
A. Brucalassi, J. Koppenhoefer, R. Saglia +9
We present the results of a seven-year-long radial velocity survey of a sample of 88 main-sequence and evolved stars to reveal signatures of Jupiter-mass planets in the solar-age a…
Pan-Planets: Searching for hot Jupiters around cool dwarfs
C. Obermeier, J. Koppenhoefer, R. P. Saglia +18
The Pan-Planets survey observed an area of 42 sq deg. in the galactic disk for about 165 hours. The main scientific goal of the project is the detection of transiting planets aroun…
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…
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…
Searching for transits in the WTS with difference imaging light curves
Jesus Zendejas, Johannes Koppenhoefer, Roberto P. Saglia +13
The Wide Field Camera Transit Survey is a pioneer program aimed to search for extra-solar planets in the near-infrared. The standard data reduction pipeline of the program uses ape…
