Abstract
The Homogeneous Study of Transiting Systems (HoSTS) will derive a
consistent and homogeneous set of both the stellar and planetary
physical properties for a large sample of bright transiting planetary
systems with confirmed planetary masses and measured radii. Our
resulting catalogs of the fundamental properties of these bright planets
and their host stars will enable us to explore empirical correlations
that will lead to a better understanding of planetary formation and
evolution. We present our pilot study of the planet-hosting star
WASP-13, and the framework of our project which will allow for the
identification of true relationships among the physical properties of
the systems from any systematics.
