Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 430(4), 3422-3431. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt140

We report detection of thermal emission from the exoplanet WASP-19b at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8 and 8.0 μm. We used the InfraRed Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope to observe two occultations of WASP-19b by its host star. We combine our new detections...

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 549, A18. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201219643

This paper introduces a series of papers aiming to study the dozens of low-mass eclipsing binaries (EBLM), with F, G, K primaries, that have been discovered in the course of the WASP survey. Our objects are mostly single-line binaries whose eclipses... Read More about The EBLM project: I.

Accurate spectroscopic parameters of WASP planet host stars★ (2012)
Journal Article
Doyle, A. P., Smalley, B., Maxted, P. F. L., Anderson, D. R., Cameron, A. C., Gillon, M., …West, R. G. (2013). Accurate spectroscopic parameters of WASP planet host stars★. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 428(4), 3164-3172. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sts267

We have made a detailed spectral analysis of 11 Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) planet host stars using high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) HARPS spectra. Our line list was carefully selected from the spectra of the Sun and Procyon, and we made a c... Read More about Accurate spectroscopic parameters of WASP planet host stars★.

SuperWASP observations of pulsating Am stars (2011)
Journal Article

We have studied over 1600 Am stars at a photometric precision of 1 mmag with SuperWASP photometric data. Contrary to previous belief, we find that around 200 Am stars are pulsating delta Sct and gamma Dor stars, with low amplitudes that have been mis...
