- Description:
- We present new photometric observations of WASP-15 and WASP-16, two transiting extrasolar planetary systems with measured orbital obliquities but without photometric follow-up since their discovery papers. Our new data for WASP-15 comprise observations of one transit simultaneously in four optical passbands using GROND on the MPG/European Southern Observatory (ESO) 2.2m telescope, plus coverage of half a transit from DFOSC on the Danish 1.54m telescope, both at ESO La Silla. For WASP-16 we present observations of four complete transits, all from the Danish telescope. We use these new data to refine the measured physical properties and orbital ephemerides of the two systems. Whilst our results are close to the originally determined values for WASP-15, we find that the star and planet in the WASP-16 system are both larger and less massive than previously thought.

- Description:
- We report the discovery of two additional planetary companions to WASP-41 and WASP-47. WASP-41c is a planet of minimum mass 3.18+/-0.20M_Jup_ and eccentricity 0.29+/-0.02, and it orbits in 421+/-2-days. WASP-47c is a planet of minimum mass 1.24+/-0.22M_Jup_ and eccentricity 0.13+/-0.10, and it orbits in 572+/-7-days. Unlike most of the planetary systems that include a hot Jupiter, these two systems with a hot Jupiter have a long-period planet located at only about 1AU from their host star. WASP-41 is a rather young star known to be chromospherically active. To differentiate its magnetic cycle from the radial velocity effect induced by the second planet, we used the emission in the Halpha line and find this indicator well suited to detecting the stellar activity pattern and the magnetic cycle. The analysis of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect induced by WASP-41b suggests that the planet could be misaligned, though an aligned orbit cannot be excluded. WASP-47 has recently been found to host two additional transiting super Earths. With such an unprecedented architecture, the WASP-47 system will be very important for understanding planetary migration.

- Description:
- We report the discovery of two new transiting planets from the WASP survey. WASP-42 b is a 0.500+/-0.035M_Jup_ planet orbiting a K1 star at a separation of 0.0548+/-0.0017AU with a period of 4.9816872+/-7.3x10^-6^days. The radius of WASP-42 b is 1.080+/-0.057R_Jup_ while its equilibrium temperature is T_eq_=995+/-34K. We detect some evidence for a small but non-zero eccentricity of e=0.060+/-0.013. WASP-49 b is a 0.378+/-0.027M_Jup_ planet around an old G6 star. It has a period of 2.7817387+/-5.6x10^-6^days and a separation of 0.0379+/-0.0011AU. This planet is slightly bloated, having a radius of 1.115+/-0.047R_Jup_ and an equilibrium temperature of T_eq_=1369+/-39K. Both planets have been followed up photometrically, and in total we have obtained 5 full and one partial transit light curves of WASP-42 and 4 full and one partial light curves of WASP-49 using the Euler-Swiss, TRAPPIST and Faulkes South telescopes.

- Description:
- We report on spectroscopic and photometric observations through transits of the exoplanets WASP-22b and WASP-26b, intended to determine the systems' spin-orbit angles. We combine these data with existing data to refine the system parameters. We measure a sky-projected spin-orbit angle of 22+/-16 degrees for WASP-22b, showing the planet's orbit to be prograde and, perhaps, slightly misaligned. We do not detect the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect of WASP-26b due to its low amplitude and observation noise. We place 3-sigma upper limits on orbital eccentricity of 0.063 for WASP-22b and 0.050 for WASP-26b. After refining the drift in the systemic velocity of WASP-22 found by Maxted et al. (2010AJ....140.2007M), we find the third body in the system to have a separation-scaled minimum-mass of 5.3+/-0.3M_Jup_ (a3/5AU)^2^, where a3 is the orbital separation of the third body.

- Description:
- 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) every 3.662 days. Planetary parameters have been determined using a simultaneous fit to WASP and TRAPPIST transit photometry and CORALIE radial-velocity measurements. For WASP-78b a planetary mass of 0.89+/-0.08M_Jup_ and a radius of 1.70+/-0.11R_Jup_ is found. The planetary equilibrium temperature of T_P_=2350+/-80K for WASP-78b makes it one of the hottest of the currently known exoplanets. WASP-79b its found to have a planetary mass of 0.90+/-0.08M_Jup_, but with a somewhat uncertain radius due to lack of sufficient TRAPPIST photometry. The planetary radius is at least 1.70+/-0.11R_Jup_, but could be as large as 2.09+/-0.14R_Jup_, which would make WASP-79b the largest known exoplanet.

- Description:
- We report the discovery from the WASP survey of two exoplanetary systems, each consisting of a Jupiter-sized planet transiting an 11th magnitude (V) main-sequence star. WASP-104b orbits its star in 1.75d, whereas WASP-106b has the fourth-longest orbital period of any planet discovered by means of transits observed from the ground, orbiting every 9.29d. Each planet is more massive than Jupiter (WASP-104b has a mass of 1.27+/-0.05M_Jup_, while WASP-106b has a mass of 1.93+/-0.08M_Jup_). Both planets are just slightly larger than Jupiter, with radii of 1.14+/-0.04 and 1.09+/-0.04R_Jup_ for WASP-104 and WASP-106 respectively. No significant orbital eccentricity is detected in either system, and while this is not surprising in the case of the short-period WASP-104b, it is interesting in the case of WASP-106b, because many otherwise similar planets are known to have eccentric orbits.

- Description:
- We report the discovery of the planets WASP-20b and WASP-28b along with measurements of their sky-projected orbital obliquities. WASP-20b is an inflated, Saturn-mass planet (0.31M_Jup_; 1.46R_Jup_) in a 4.9-day, near-aligned (lambda=12.7+/-4.2{deg}) orbit around CD-24 102 (V=10.7; F9). Due to the low density of the planet and the apparent brightness of the host star, WASP-20 is a good target for atmospheric characterisation via transmission spectroscopy. WASP-28b is an inflated, Jupiter-mass planet (0.91M_Jup_; 1.21R_Jup_) in a 3.4-day, near-aligned (lambda=8+/-18{deg}) orbit around a V=12, F8 star. As intermediate-mass planets in short orbits around aged, cool stars (7^+2^_-1_Gyr and 6000+/-100K for WASP-20; 5^+3^_-2_Gyr and 6100+/-150K for WASP-28), their orbital alignment is consistent with the hypothesis that close-in giant planets are scattered into eccentric orbits with random alignments, which are then circularised and aligned with their stars' spins via tidal dissipation.

- Description:
- Transmission spectroscopy has proven to be a useful tool for the study of exoplanet atmospheres, because the absorption and scattering signatures of the atmosphere manifest themselves as variations in the planetary transit depth. Several planets have been studied with this technique, leading to the detection of a small number of elements and molecules (Na, K, H_2_O), but also revealing that many planets show flat transmission spectra consistent with the presence of opaque high-altitude clouds. We apply this technique to the Mp=0.40 M_jup_, Rp=1.20R_jup_, P=2.78d planet WASP-49b, aiming to characterize its transmission spectrum between 0.73 and 1um and search for the features of K and H_2_O. Owing to its density and temperature, the planet is predicted to possess an extended atmosphere and is thus a good target for transmission spectroscopy. Three transits of WASP-49b have been observed with the FORS2 instrument installed at the VLT/UT1 telescope at the ESO Paranal site. We used FORS2 in MXU mode with grism GRIS_600z, producing simultaneous multiwavelength transit light curves throughout the i' and z' bands. We combined these data with independent broadband photometry from the Euler and TRAPPIST telescopes to obtain a good measurement of the transit shape. Strong correlated noise structures are present in the FORS2 light curves, which are due to rotating flat-field structures that are introduced by inhomogeneities of the linear atmospheric dispersion corrector's transparency. We accounted for these structures by constructing common noise models from the residuals of light curves bearing the same noise structures and used them together with simple parametric models to infer the transmission spectrum. We present three independent transmission spectra of WASP-49b between 0.73 and 1.02um, as well as a transmission spectrum between 0.65 and 1.02um from the combined analysis of FORS2 and broadband data. The results obtained from the three individual epochs agree well. The transmission spectrum of WASP-49b is best fit by atmospheric models containing a cloud deck at pressure levels of 1mbar or lower.

- Description:
- We observed one transit and one occultation of the hot Jupiter WASP-43b simultaneously in the g'r'i'z'JHK bands using the GROND instrument on the MPG/ESO 2.2-meter telescope. From the transit event, we have independently derived WASP-43's system parameters with high precision, and improved the period to be 0.81347437(13) days. No significant variation in transit depths is detected, with the largest deviations coming from the i', H, and K bands. Given the observational uncertainties, the broad-band transmission spectrum can be explained by either (i) a flat featureless straight line that indicates thick clouds, (ii) synthetic spectra with absorption signatures of atomic Na/K or molecular TiO/VO that in turn indicate cloud-free atmosphere, or (iii) a Rayleigh scattering profile that indicates high-altitude hazes. From the occultation event, we detected planetary dayside thermal emission in the K-band with a flux ratio of 0.197+/-0.042%, which confirms previous detections obtained in the 2.09 micron narrow band and Ks-band. The K-band brightness temperature 1878^+108^_-116_K favors an atmosphere with poor day- to nightside heat redistribution. We also have a marginal detection in the i'-band (0.037^+0.023^_-0.021_%), which is either a false positive, a signature of non-blackbody radiation at this wavelength, or an indication of reflective hazes at high altitude.
