WASP-92b, WASP-93b and WASP-118b: Three new transiting close-in giant planets
K. L. Hay, A. Collier-Cameron, A. P. Doyle +36
We present the discovery of three new transiting giant planets, first detected with the WASP telescopes, and establish their planetary nature with follow up spectroscopy and ground…
Discovery of WASP-65b and WASP-75b: Two Hot Jupiters Without Highly Inflated Radii
Y. Gómez Maqueo Chew, F. Faedi, D. Pollacco +38
We report the discovery of two transiting hot Jupiters, WASP-65b (M_pl = 1.55 +/- 0.16 M_J; R_pl = 1.11 +/- 0.06 R_J), and WASP-75b (M_pl = 1.07 +/- 0.05 M_J; R_pl = 1.27 +/- 0.05…
Near-UV Absorption, Chromospheric Activity, and Star-Planet Interactions in the WASP-12 system
C. A. Haswell, L. Fossati, T. Ayres +15
We observed the extreme close-in hot Jupiter system WASP-12 with HST. Near-UV transits up to three times deeper than the optical transit of WASP-12b reveal extensive diffuse gas, e…
WASP-54b, WASP-56b and WASP-57b: Three new sub-Jupiter mass planets from SuperWASP
F. Faedi, D. Pollacco, S. C. C. Barros +38
We present three newly discovered sub-Jupiter mass planets from the SuperWASP survey: WASP-54b is a heavily bloated planet of mass 0.636 \mj and radius 1.653$^{…
A Compact Degenerate Primary-Star Progenitor of SN 2011fe
Joshua S. Bloom, Daniel Kasen, Ken J. Shen +10
While a white dwarf is, from a theoretical perspective, the most plausible primary star in Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), many other candidates have not been formally ruled out. Shock…
PIRATE: A Remotely-Operable Telescope Facility for Research and Education
S. Holmes, U. Kolb, C. A. Haswell +6
We introduce PIRATE, a new remotely-operable telescope facility for use in research and education, constructed from 'off-the-shelf' hardware, operated by The Open University. We fo…
