Additional information

Smalley is a key member of the WASP project, using his expertise in stellar parameter determination to contribute tools for planet-candidate selection and for investigating planet host stars. Using these tools Smalley identified WASP-33 as a chemically peculiar (Am) star. Smalley's principal contribution the paper was the investigation into the nature of this Am star, including the spectroscopic analysis, thus confirming that this is the first planet to be identified orbiting a chemically peculiar (Am) host star, and the first hot Jupiter found to transit an A star.
