Transit timing variation analysis in southern stars: The case of WASP-28

We present four new transit observations of the exoplanet WASP-28b observed between 2011 August and 2013 October. Employing another 11 transits available in the literature we compute new ephemeris and redetermine the physical parameters of the star and the exoplanet. Considering 3 yr of observations...
