Are the orbital poles of binary stars in the solar neighbourhood anisotropically distributed?
J-L. Agati, D. Bonneau, A. Jorissen +4
We test whether or not the orbital poles of the systems in the solar neighbourhood are isotropically distributed on the celestial sphere. The problem is plagued by the ambiguity on…
CFHTLenS: Weak lensing calibrated scaling relations for low mass clusters of galaxies
K. Kettula, S. Giodini, E. van Uitert +24
We present weak lensing and X-ray analysis of 12 low mass clusters from the CFHTLenS and XMM-CFHTLS surveys. We combine these systems with high-mass systems from CCCP and low-mass…
A global analysis of Spitzer and new HARPS data confirms the loneliness and metal-richness of GJ 436 b
A. A. Lanotte, M. Gillon, B. -O. Demory +13
Context. GJ 436b is one of the few transiting warm Neptunes for which a detailed characterisation of the atmosphere is possible, whereas its non-negligible orbital eccentricity cal…
Planets and Stellar Activity: Hide and Seek in the CoRoT-7 system
R. D. Haywood, A. Collier Cameron, D. Queloz +12
Since the discovery of the transiting super-Earth CoRoT-7b, several investigations have yielded different results for the number and masses of planets present in the system, mainly…
Hubble Space Telescope Grism Spectroscopy of Extreme Starbursts Across Cosmic Time: The Role of Dwarf Galaxies in the Star Formation History of the Universe
Hakim Atek, Jean-Paul Kneib, Camilla Pacifici +15
Near infrared slitless spectroscopy with the Wide Field Camera 3, onboard the Hubble Space Telescope, offers a unique opportunity to study low-mass galaxy populations at high-redsh…
The BANANA project. V. Misaligned and precessing stellar rotation axes in CV Velorum
Simon Albrecht, Joshua N. Winn, Guillermo Torres +8
As part of the BANANA project (Binaries Are Not Always Neatly Aligned), we have found that the eclipsing binary CV Velorum has misaligned rotation axes. Based on our analysis of th…
