Planetary-Mass Exosatellite Detected Around the Substellar Companion of a Star
Kevin Hoy, Alice Zurlo, Pablo A. Peña R. +10
Despite more than 6000 exoplanets being discovered to date, no satellite orbiting an exoplanet, an exomoon, has ever been confidently detected. While there are some candidates, the…
Binary planet formation through tides
C. Lazzoni, K. W. Rice, A. Zurlo +2
The search for satellites around exoplanets represents one of the greatest challenges in advancing the characterization of planetary systems. Currently, we can only detect massive…
Jupiter-like planets might be common in a low-density environment
Raffaele Gratton, Dino Mesa, Mariangela Bonavita +6
Radial velocity surveys suggest that the Solar System may be unusual and that Jupiter-like planets have a frequency <20% around solar-type stars. However, they may be much more com…
Imaging radial velocity planets with SPHERE
A. Zurlo, D. Mesa, S. Desidera +37
We present observations with the planet finder SPHERE of a selected sample of the most promising radial velocity (RV) companions for high-contrast imaging. Using a Monte Carlo simu…
Observations of fast-moving features in the debris disk of AU Mic on a three-year timescale: Confirmation and new discoveries
A. Boccaletti, E. Sezestre, A. -M. Lagrange +60
The nearby and young M star AU Mic is surrounded by a debris disk in which we previously identified a series of large-scale arch-like structures that have never been seen before in…
New constraints on the disk characteristics and companion candidates around T Cha with VLT/SPHERE
A. Pohl, E. Sissa, M. Langlois +34
The transition disk around the T Tauri star T Cha possesses a large gap, making it a prime target for high-resolution imaging in the context of planet formation. We aim to find sig…
