Physical properties of the 0.94-day period transiting planetary system WASP-18

John Southworth, T. C. Hinse, M. Dominik +24

We present high-precision photometry of five consecutive transits of WASP-18, an extrasolar planetary system with one of the shortest orbital periods known. Through the use of tele…

A Stellar Flare during the Transit of the Extrasolar Planet OGLE-TR-10b

Samuel Bentley, Coel Hellier, Pierre Maxted +4

We report a stellar flare occurring during a transit of the exoplanet OGLE-TR-10b, an event not previously reported in the literature. This reduces the observed transit depth, part…

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…

VLT transit and occultation photometry for the bloated planet CoRoT-1b

M. Gillon, B. -O. Demory, A. H. M. J. Triaud +7

We present VLT eclipse photometry for the giant planet CoRoT-1b. We observed a transit in the R-band filter and an occultation in a narrow filter centered on 2.09 microns. Our anal…

The 0.5M transiting exoplanet WASP-13b

I. Skillen, D. Pollacco, A. Collier Cameron +32

We report the discovery of WASP-13b, a low-mass transiting exoplanet with an orbital period of days. The transit has a de…

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…
