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…
NLTT5306: The shortest Period Detached White Dwarf + Brown Dwarf Binary
P. R. Steele, R. P. Saglia, M. R. Burleigh +6
We have spectroscopically confirmed a brown dwarf mass companion to the hydrogen atmosphere white dwarf NLTT5306. The white dwarf's atmospheric parameters were measured using Sloan…
The first planet detected in the WTS: an inflated hot-Jupiter in a 3.35 day orbit around a late F-star
M. Cappetta, R. P. Saglia, J. L. Birkby +36
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. Light cur…
A Trio of Metal-Rich Dust and Gas Disks Found Orbiting Candidate White Dwarfs with K-Band Excess
J. Farihi, B. T. Gänsicke, P. R. Steele +4
This paper reports follow-up photometric and spectroscopic observations, including warm Spitzer IRAC photometry of seven white dwarfs from the SDSS with apparent excess flux in UKI…
