Radiation damage effects in space-borne CCD detectors operated in TDI mode
(IOP Publishing, 2017-07-01)
We evaluate the astrometric and photometric implications of a series of laboratory tests conducted to study the effects of radiation damage caused by solar protons in space-borne charge coupled devices (CCDs). The photometric ...
NGTS-1b: a hot Jupiter transiting an M-dwarf
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
We present the discovery of NGTS-1b, a hot Jupiter transiting an early M-dwarf host (T-eff,(*) = 3916 (+71)(-63) K) in a P = 2.647 d orbit discovered as part of the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS). The planet has a ...
The next generation transit survey (NGTS)
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
We describe the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS), which is a ground-based project searching for transiting exoplanets orbiting bright stars. NGTS builds on the legacy of previous surveys, most notably WASP, and is ...
Defining photometric peculiar type Ia supernovae
(The American Astronomical Society., 2014)
We present a new photometric identification technique for SN 1991bg-like type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), i.e., objects
with light curve characteristics such as later primary maxima and the absence of a secondary peak in ...
K2-140b – an eccentric 6.57 d transiting hot Jupiter in Virgo
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
We present the discovery of K2-140b, a P = 6.57 d Jupiter-mass (M-P = 1.019 +/- 0.070 M-Jup) planet transiting a V = 12.5 (G5-spectral type) star in an eccentric orbit (e = 0.120(-0.046)(+0.056)) detected using a combination ...
A HARPS view on K2-3
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
K2 space observations recently found that three super-Earths transit the nearby M dwarf K2-3. The apparent brightness and the small
physical radius of their host star rank these planets amongst the most favourable for ...

K2-161b: A low-density super-neptune on an eccentric orbit
(Oxford University Press, 2019)
© 2018 The Author(s).We report the discovery of K2-161b, which was first identified as a planetary candidate from Kepler K2 photometry of Campaign 14, and whose planetary nature and orbital parameters were then confirmed ...
A survey for dwarf galaxy remnants around 14 globular clusters in the outer halo
(Oxford University Press, 2018-06)
We report the results of a systematic photometric survey of the peripheral regions of a sample of 14 globular clusters in the outer halo of the Milky Way at distances d(GC) > 25 kpc from the Galactic Centre. The survey is ...
