A Spectral Classification System for Hydrogen-deficient Carbon Stars
Courtney L. Crawford, Patrick Tisserand, Geoffrey C. Clayton +6
Stellar spectral classification has been highly useful in the study of stars. While there is a currently accepted spectral classification system for carbon stars, the subset of Hyd…
SuperWASP observations of pulsating Am stars
B Smalley, D. W. Kurtz, A. M. S. Smith +25
We have studied over 1600 Am stars at a photometric precision of 1 mmag with SuperWASP photometric data. Contrary to previous belief, we find that around 200 Am stars are pulsating…
WASP-34b: a near-grazing transiting sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet in a hierarchical triple system
B. Smalley, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +19
We report the discovery of WASP-34b, a sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet transiting its 10.4-magnitude solar-type host star (1SWASP J110135.89-235138.4; TYC 6636-540-1) every 4.3177 days…
Transmission spectroscopy of the sodium 'D' doublet in WASP-17b with the VLT
Patricia L Wood, Pierre F L Maxted, Barry Smalley +1
The detection of increased sodium absorption during primary transit implies the presence of an atmosphere around an extrasolar planet, and enables us to infer the structure of this…
WASP-26b: A 1-Jupiter-mass planet around an early-G-type star
B. Smalley, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +18
We report the discovery of WASP-26b, a moderately over-sized Jupiter-mass exoplanet transiting its 11.3-magnitude early-G-type host star (1SWASP J001824.70-151602.3; TYC 5839-876-1…
A survey for post common-envelope binary stars using GALEX and SDSS photometry
P. F. L. Maxted, B. T. Gaensicke, M. R. Burleigh +5
We report the first results of our programme to obtain multi-epoch radial velocity measurements of stars with a strong far-UV excess to identify post common-envelope binaries (PCEB…
