Giant exoplanet WASP-14b in Bootes

Dear group,

A very productive evening came to a successful conclusion an hour ago
with the work involving the exoplanet WASP-14b in Bootes 570 light-
years away and which was announced in mid-2008.

This exoplanet has a whopping mass 7.75 times that of Jupiter and is
one of the densest exoplanets discovered so far. WASP-14b requires a
mere 54 hours to complete one orbit around its host star. When in
transit across its sun, the event lasts 183.6 minutes at a depth of
10.2 mmag (ie. 0.0102 mag).

For further details as well as the transit itself from a few hours
ago, please see
