SuperWASP, the Northern hemisphere WASP observatory, has been observing the skies from La Palma since 2004. In that time, more than 50 planets have been discovered with data contributions from SuperWASP. In the process of validating planets, many fal...

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 490(2), 2467-2474. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz2632

We report the discovery and characterization of WASP-180Ab, a hot Jupiter confirmed by the detection of its Doppler shadow and by measuring its mass using radial velocities. We find the 0.9  ±  0.1 MJup, 1.24  ±  0.04 RJup planet to be in a misaligne... Read More about WASP-180Ab: Doppler tomography of an hot Jupiter orbiting the primary star in a visual binary.

Some M-dwarfs around F-/G-type stars have been measured to be hotter and larger than predicted by stellar evolution models. Inconsistencies between observations and models need addressing with more mass, radius and luminosity measurements of low-mass... Read More about The EBLM Project VI.
