Faint objects in motion: the new frontier of high precision astrometry
Fabien Malbet, Céline Boehm, Alberto Krone-Martins +83
Sky survey telescopes and powerful targeted telescopes play complementary roles in astronomy. In order to investigate the nature and characteristics of the motions of very faint ob…
Short life and abrupt death of PicSat, a small 3U CubeSat dreaming of exoplanet detection
Mathias Nowak, Sylvestre Lacour, Antoine Crouzier +3
PicSat was a three unit CubeSat (measuring 30 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm) which was developed to monitor the beta Pictoris system. The main science objective was the detection of a possibl…
A Compact and Lightweight Fibered Photometer for the PicSat Mission
Mathias Nowak, Sylvestre Lacour, Vicent Lapeyrère +5
PicSat is a nanosatellite developed to observe the transit of the giant planet beta Pictoris b, expected in late 2017. Its science objectives are: the observation of the transit of…
Theia: Faint objects in motion or the new astrometry frontier
The Theia Collaboration, Celine Boehm, Alberto Krone-Martins +96
In the context of the ESA M5 (medium mission) call we proposed a new satellite mission, Theia, based on relative astrometry and extreme precision to study the motion of very faint…
Reaching sub-milimag photometric precision on Beta Pictoris with a nanosat: the PicSat mission
M. Nowak, S. Lacour, V. Lapeyrère +6
PicSat is a nanosatellite currently being developed to observe the transit of the giant planet \b{eta} Pictoris, expected some time between July 2017 and June 2018. The mission is…
A detector interferometric calibration experiment for high precision astrometry
A. Crouzier, F. Malbet, F. Henault +23
Context: Exoplanet science has made staggering progress in the last two decades, due to the relentless exploration of new detection methods and refinement of existing ones. Yet ast…
NEAT: a space born astrometric mission for the detection and characterization of nearby habitable planetary systems
Fabien Malbet, Renaud Goullioud, Pierre-Olivier Lagage +4
The NEAT (Nearby Earth Astrometric Telescope) mission is a proposal submitted to ESA for its 2010 call for M-size mission within the Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 plan. The main scientif…
