The Next Generation Transit Survey - Prototyping Phase
James McCormac, Don Pollacco, Peter Wheatley +16
We present the prototype telescope for the Next Generation Transit Survey, which was built in the UK in 2008/09 and tested on La Palma in the Canary Islands in 2010. The goals for…
Rayleigh scattering in the transmission spectrum of HAT-P-18b
J. Kirk, P. J. Wheatley, T. Louden +5
We have performed ground-based transmission spectroscopy of the hot Jupiter HAT-P-18b using the ACAM instrument on the William Herschel Telescope (WHT). Differential spectroscopy o…
WASP-86b and WASP-102b: super-dense versus bloated planets
F. Faedi, Y. Gómez Maqueo Chew, D. Pollacco +38
We report the discovery of two transiting planetary systems: a super dense, sub-Jupiter mass planet WASP-86b (\mpl\ = 0.82 0.06 \mj, \rpl\ = 0.63 0.01 \rj), and a bloat…
Discovery of WASP-113b and WASP-114b, two inflated hot-Jupiters with contrasting densities
S. C. C. Barros, D. J. A. Brown, G. Hébrard +37
We present the discovery and characterisation of the exoplanets WASP-113b and WASP-114b by the WASP survey, {\it SOPHIE} and {\it CORALIE}. The planetary nature of the systems was…
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…
From dense hot Jupiter to low-density Neptune: The discovery of WASP-127b, WASP-136b and WASP-138b
K. W. F. Lam, F. Faedi, D. J. A. Brown +38
We report three newly discovered exoplanets from the SuperWASP survey. WASP-127b is a heavily inflated super-Neptune of mass 0.18 +/- 0.02 M_J and radius 1.37 +/- 0.04 R_J. This is…
