Qatar-1b: a hot Jupiter orbiting a metal-rich K dwarf star

K. A. Alsubai, N. R. Parley, D. M. Bramich +18

We report the discovery and initial characterisation of Qatar-1b, a hot Jupiter orbiting a metal-rich K dwarf star, the first planet discovered by the Alsubai Project exoplanet tra…

The WASP-South search for transiting exoplanets

Coel Hellier, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +9

Since 2006 WASP-South has been scanning the Southern sky for transiting exoplanets. Combined with Geneva Observatory radial velocities we have so far found over 30 transiting exopl…

WASP-34b: a near-grazing transiting sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet in a hierarchical triple system

B. Smalley, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +19

We report the discovery of WASP-34b, a sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet transiting its 10.4-magnitude solar-type host star (1SWASP J110135.89-235138.4; TYC 6636-540-1) every 4.3177 days…

Detection limits for close eclipsing and transiting sub-stellar and planetary companions to white dwarfs in the WASP survey

F. Faedi, R. G. West, M. R. Burleigh +2

We used photometric data from the WASP (Wide-Angle Search for Planets) survey to explore the possibility of detecting eclipses and transit signals of brown dwarfs, gas giants and t…

High C/O Ratio and Weak Thermal Inversion in the Very Hot Atmosphere of Exoplanet WASP-12b

Nikku Madhusudhan, Joseph Harrington, Kevin B. Stevenson +16

The carbon-to-oxygen ratio (C/O) in a planet provides critical information about its primordial origins and subsequent evolution. A primordial C/O greater than 0.8 causes a carbide…

WASP-41b: A transiting hot Jupiter planet orbiting a magnetically-active G8V star

P. F. L. Maxted, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +13

We report the discovery of a transiting planet with an orbital period of 3.05d orbiting the star TYC 7247-587-1. The star, WASP-41, is a moderately bright G8V star (V=11.6) with a…
