A super-Earth transiting a nearby low-mass star
David Charbonneau, Zachory K. Berta, Jonathan Irwin +16
A decade ago, the detection of the first transiting extrasolar planet provided a direct constraint on its composition and opened the door to spectroscopic investigations of extraso…
The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets. XX. Planets around the active star BD-08:2823
G. Hebrard, S. Udry, G. Lo Curto +13
We report the detection of a planetary system around BD-08:2823, that includes at least one Uranus-mass planet and one Saturn-mass planet. This discovery serendipitously originates…
An estimate of the chemical composition of Titan's lakes
D. Cordier, O. Mousis, J. -I. Lunine +2
Hundreds of radar-dark patches interpreted as lakes have been discovered in the north and south polar regions of Titan. We have estimated the composition of these lakes by using th…
The Case of AB Aurigae's Disk in Polarized Light: Is There Truly a Gap?
Marshall D. Perrin, Glenn Schneider, Gaspard Duchene +4
Using the NICMOS coronagraph, we have obtained high-contrast 2.0 micron imaging polarimetry and 1.1 micron imaging of the circumstellar disk around AB Aurigae on angular scales of…
Detection and Characterization of Planets in Binary and Multiple Systems
A. Eggenberger
Moderately close binaries are a special class of targets for planet searches. From a theoretical standpoint, their hospitality to giant planets is uncertain and debated. From an ob…
Extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs around A-F type stars - VII. Theta Cygni radial velocity variations: planets or stellar phenomenon?
M. Desort, A. -M. Lagrange, F. Galland +23
(abridged) In the frame of the search for extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs around early-type main-sequence stars, we present the results obtained on the early F-type star Theta…
Constraining the orbit of the possible companion to Beta Pictoris: New deep imaging observations
Anne-Marie Lagrange, Markus Kasper, Anthony Boccaletti +7
We recently reported on the detection of a possible planetary-mass companion to Beta Pictoris at a projected separation of 8 AU from the star, using data taken in November 2003 wit…
Spin-orbit misalignment in the HD80606 planetary system
F. Pont, G. Hebrard, J. M. Irwin +5
We recently reported the photometric and spectroscopic detection of the primary transit of the 111-day-period, eccentric extra-solar planet HD80606 b, at Observatoire de Haute-Prov…
VLT/NACO Deep imaging survey of young, nearby austral stars
G. Chauvin, A. -M. Lagrange, M. Bonavita +10
Since November 2002, we have conducted the largest deep imaging survey of the young, nearby associations of the southern hemisphere. Our goal is detection and characterization of s…
Astrometric Detection of Earthlike Planets
Michael Shao, Geoff Marcy, Joseph H. Catanzarite +12
Astrometry can detect rocky planets in a broad range of masses and orbital distances and measure their masses and three-dimensional orbital parameters, including eccentricity and i…
Detection and Characterization of Extrasolar Planets through Doppler Spectroscopy
A. Eggenberger, S. Udry
Over 300 extrasolar planets have been found since 1992, showing that planetary systems are common and exhibit an outstanding variety of characteristics. As the number of detections…
Search for Carbon Monoxide in the atmosphere of the Transiting Exoplanet HD189733b
Jean-Michel Desert, Alain Lecavelier des Etangs, Guillaume Hebrard +4
Water, methane and carbon-monoxide are expected to be among the most abundant molecules besides molecular hydrogen in the hot atmosphere of close-in EGPs. Transit observations in t…
Photometric and spectroscopic detection of the primary transit of the 111-day-period planet HD 80606 b
C. Moutou, G. Hebrard, F. Bouchy +19
We report the detection of the primary transit of the extra-solar planet HD 80606 b, thanks to photometric and spectroscopic observations performed at Observatoire de Haute-Provenc…
