WASP-78b and WASP-79b: Two highly-bloated hot Jupiter-mass exoplanets orbiting F-type stars in Eridanus (2012)
Journal Article
Smalley, B., R. Anderson, D., Collier-Cameron, A., P. Doyle, A., Fumel, A., Gillon, M., …G. West, R. (2012). WASP-78b and WASP-79b: Two highly-bloated hot Jupiter-mass exoplanets orbiting F-type stars in Eridanus. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 547, Article A61. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201219731

We report the discovery of WASP-78b and WASP-79b, two highly-bloated Jupiter-mass exoplanets orbiting F-type host stars. WASP-78b orbits its V=12.0 host star (TYC 5889-271-1) every 2.175 days and WASP-79b orbits its V=10.1 host star (CD-30 1812) ever...

SuperWASP observations of pulsating Am stars (2011)
Journal Article
Smalley, B., Kurtz, D., Smith, A. S., Fossati, L., Anderson, D., Barros, S. C., …Wood, P. L. (2011). SuperWASP observations of pulsating Am stars. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 535, Article A3. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201117230

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...

WASP-34b: a near-grazing transiting sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet in a hierarchical triple system (2011)
Journal Article
Smalley, B., R. Anderson, D., Collier Cameron, A., Hellier, C., Lendl, M., F. L. Maxted, P., …Bento, J. (2011). WASP-34b: a near-grazing transiting sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet in a hierarchical triple system. Astronomy & Astrophysics, https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201015992

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 in a slightly eccentric orbit (e = 0.038 +/- 0.012). We find a planeta... Read More about WASP-34b: a near-grazing transiting sub-Jupiter-mass exoplanet in a hierarchical triple system.
