A DEBRIS Disk Around The Planet Hosting M-star GJ581 Spatially Resolved with Herschel

J. -F. Lestrade, B. C. Matthews, B. Sibthorpe +17

Debris disks have been found primarily around intermediate and solar mass stars (spectral types A-K) but rarely around low mass M-type stars. We have spatially resolved a debris di…

Direct imaging of extra-solar planets in star forming regions: Lessons learned from a false positive around IM Lup

Dimitri Mawet, Olivier Absil, Guillaume Montagnier +8

Most exoplanet imagers consist of ground-based adaptive optics coronagraphic cameras which are currently limited in contrast, sensitivity and astrometric precision, but advantageou…

Impact of angular differential imaging on circumstellar disk images

J. Milli, D. Mouillet, A. M. Lagrange +4

Direct imaging of circumstellar disks requires high-contrast and high-resolution techniques. The angular differential imaging (ADI) technique is one of them, initially developed fo…

Comparison of different exoplanet mass detection limit methods using a sample of main-sequence intermediate-type stars

Nadège Meunier, Anne-Marie Lagrange, Katrien De Bondt

The radial velocity (RV) technique is a powerful tool for detecting extrasolar planets and deriving mass detection limits that are useful for constraining planet pulsations and for…

An insight in the surroundings of HR4796

A. -M. Lagrange, J. Milli, A. Boccaletti +8

HR4796 is a young, early A-type star harbouring a well structured debris disk, shaped as a ring with sharp inner edges. It forms with the M-type star HR4796B a binary system, with…

Morphology of the very inclined debris disk around HD 32297

Anthony Boccaletti, Jean-Charles Augereau, Anne-Marie Lagrange +6

Direct imaging of circumstellar disks at high angular resolution is mandatory to provide morphological information that bring constraints on their properties, in particular the spa…

The frequency of giant planets around metal-poor stars

A. Mortier, N. C. Santos, A. Sozzetti +4

Context. The discovery of about 700 extrasolar planets, so far, has lead to the first statistics concerning extrasolar planets. The presence of giant planets seems to depend on ste…
