WASP-16b: A new Jupiter-like planet transiting a southern solar analog
T. A. Lister, D. R. Anderson, M. Gillon +29
We report the discovery from WASP-South of a new Jupiter-like extrasolar planet, WASP-16b, which transits its solar analog host star every 3.12 days. Analysis of the transit photom…
WASP-17b: an ultra-low density planet in a probable retrograde orbit
D. R. Anderson, C. Hellier, M. Gillon +18
We report the discovery of the transiting giant planet WASP-17b, the least-dense planet currently known. It is 1.6 Saturn masses but 1.5-2 Jupiter radii, giving a density of 6-14 p…
The low density transiting exoplanet WASP-15b
R. G. West, D. R. Anderson, M. Gillon +20
We report the discovery of a low-density exoplanet transiting an 11th magnitude star in the Southern hemisphere. WASP-15b, which orbits its host star with a period P=3.7520656+-0.0…
Discovery and characterization of WASP-6b, an inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting a solar-type star
M. Gillon, D. R. Anderson, A. H. M. J. Triaud +21
We report the discovery of WASP-6b, an inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting every 3.3610060 +0.0000022-0.0000035 days a mildly metal-poor solar-type star of magnitude V=11.9…
Improved parameters for the transiting hot Jupiters WASP-4b and WASP-5b
M. Gillon, B. Smalley, L. Hebb +6
The gaseous giant planets WASP-4b and WASP-5b are transiting 12 magnitude solar-type stars in the Southern hemisphere. The aim of the present work is to refine the parameters of th…
WASP-12b: The hottest transiting planet yet discovered
L. Hebb, A. Collier-Cameron, B. Loeillet +15
We report on the discovery of WASP-12b, a new transiting extrasolar planet with and . The planet and host star propertie…
