Peculiar architectures for the WASP-53 and WASP-81 planet-hosting systems

Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Marion Neveu-VanMalle, Monika Lendl +16

We report the detection of two new systems containing transiting planets. Both were identified by WASP as worthy transiting planet candidates. Radial-velocity observations quickly…

A Transient Transit Signature Associated with the Young Star RIK-210

Trevor J. David, Erik A. Petigura, Lynne A. Hillenbrand +14

We find transient, transit-like dimming events within the K2 time series photometry of the young star RIK-210 in the Upper Scorpius OB association. These dimming events are variabl…

Long-term variability of T Tauri stars using WASP

Laura Rigon, Aleks Scholz, David Anderson +1

We present a reference study of the long-term optical variability of young stars using data from the WASP project. Our primary sample is a group of well-studied classical T Tauri s…

Pulsation versus metallicism in Am stars as revealed by LAMOST and WASP

B. Smalley, V. Antoci, D. L. Holdsworth +13

We present the results of a study of a large sample of A and Am stars with spectral types from LAMOST and light curves from WASP. We find that, unlike normal A stars, Sct pulsa…

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…
