Rossiter-McLaughlin Effect Measurements for WASP-16, WASP-25 and WASP-31 [PDF]
, 2012 We present new measurements of the Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect for three WASP planetary systems, WASP-16, WASP-25 and WASP-31, from a combined analysis of their complete sets of photometric and spectroscopic data. We find a low amplitude RM effect for WASP-16 (Teff = 5700 \pm 150K), suggesting that the star is a slow rotator and thus of an advanced
