Description
The Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) survey provided some of the first transiting hot Jupiter candidates. With the addition of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), many WASP planet candidates have now been revisited and given updated transit parameters. Here, we present nine transiting planets orbiting FGK stars that were identified as candidates by the WASP survey and found to have planetary masses via radial velocity measurements. Subsequent space-based photometry taken by TESS as well as ground-based photometric and spectroscopic measurements have been used to jointly analyze the planetary properties of WASP-102 b, WASP-116 b, WASP-149 b WASP-154 b, WASP-155 b, WASP-188 b, WASP-194 b/HAT-P-71 b, WASP-195 b, and WASP-197 b. These planets have radii between 0.9 RJup and 1.4 RJup, masses between 0.1 MJup and 1.5 MJup, and periods between 1.3 and 6.6 days.

    Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): Multiplicity properties of Oe and Be stars
    Context. Rapidly rotating classical OBe stars have been proposed as the products of binary interactions, and the fraction of Be stars with compact companions implies that at least some are. However, to constrain the interaction physics spinning up the OBe stars, a large sample of homogeneously analyzed OBe stars with well-determined binary

    Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): Enhanced multiplicity of early B-type dwarfs and giants at Z = 0.2 Z<SUB>⊙</SUB>
    Early B-type stars with initial masses between 8 and 15 M ⊙ are frequently found in multiple systems, as is evidenced by multi-epoch spectroscopic campaigns in the Milky Way and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Previous studies have shown no strong metallicity dependence in the close-binary (a < 10 au) fraction or orbital-period distributions

    Bar ages derived for the first time in nearby galaxies: Insights into secular evolution from the TIMER sample
    Once galaxies settle their discs and become self-gravitating, stellar bars can form, driving the subsequent evolution of their host galaxy. Determining the ages of bars can therefore shed light on the epoch of the onset of secular evolution. For this work we applied the first broadly applicable methodology to derive bar ages to a sample of 20
