The Monitor project: Rotation of low-mass stars in NGC 2362 -- testing the disc regulation paradigm at 5 Myr
Jonathan Irwin, Simon Hodgkin, Suzanne Aigrain +4
We report on the results of a time-series photometric survey of NGC 2362, carried out using the CTIO 4m Blanco telescope and Mosaic-II detector as part of the Monitor project. Rota…
The Monitor project: tracking the evolution of low mass and pre-main sequence stars
Suzanne Aigrain, Jonathan Irwin, Leslie Hebb +4
The Monitor project is a large-scale program of photometric and spectroscopic monitoring of young open clusters using telescopes at ESO and other observatories. Its primary goal is…
The Monitor project: Rotation of low-mass stars in the open cluster NGC 2547
Jonathan Irwin, Simon Hodgkin, Suzanne Aigrain +3
We report on the results of an I-band time-series photometric survey of NGC 2547 using the MPG/ESO 2.2m telescope with WFI, achieving better than 1% photometric precision per data…
WASP-3b: a strongly-irradiated transiting gas-giant planet
D. Pollacco, I. Skillen, A. Collier Cameron +43
We report the discovery of WASP-3b, the third transiting exoplanet to be discovered by the WASP and SOPHIE collaboration. WASP-3b transits its host star USNO-B1.0 1256-0285133 ever…
Efficient identification of exoplanetary transit candidates from SuperWASP light curves
A. Collier Cameron, D. M. Wilson, R. G. West +29
Transiting extrasolar planets constitute only a small fraction of the range of stellar systems found to display periodic, shallow dimmings in wide-field surveys employing small-ape…
The Monitor project: JW 380 -- a 0.26, 0.15 Msol pre main sequence eclipsing binary in the Orion Nebula Cluster
Jonathan Irwin, Suzanne Aigrain, Simon Hodgkin +14
We report the discovery of a low-mass (0.26 +/- 0.02, 0.15 +/- 0.01 Msol) pre-main-sequence eclipsing binary with a 5.3 day orbital period. JW 380 was detected as part of a high-ca…
