We have detected low-amplitude radial-velocity variations in two stars, USNO-B1.0 1219‐ 0005465 (GSC 02265‐00107 = WASP‐1) and USNO-B1.0 0964‐0543604 (GSC 00522‐ 01199 = WASP‐2). Both stars were identified as being likely host stars of transiting exoplanets in the 2004 SuperWASP wide-field transit survey. Using the newly commissioned radial-velocity spectrograph SOPHIE at the Observatoire de Haute-Provence, we found that both objects exhibit reflex orbital radial-velocity variations with…

WASP-3b: a strongly irradiated transiting gas-giant planet
- Geology, Physics
- 2007
The proximity and relative temperature of the host star suggests that WASP-3b is one of the hottest exoplanets known, and thus has the potential to place stringent constraints on exoplanet atmospheric models.

THREE WASP-SOUTH TRANSITING EXOPLANETS: WASP-74b, WASP-83b, AND WASP-89b
- Physics, Geology
- 2014
Three new transiting hot Jupiters are reported by WASP-South together with the TRAPPIST photometer and the Euler/CORALIE spectrograph, similar to massive, eccentric planets such as XO-3b and HAT-P-2b, except that those planets orbit F stars whereas WasP-89 is a K star.
WASP-10b: A 3M , gas-giant planet transiting a late-type K star
- Geology, Physics
