Toward detection of terrestrial planets in the habitable zone of our closest neighbor: Proxima Centauri
Michael Endl, Martin Kuerster
The precision of radial velocity (RV) measurements to detect indirectly planetary companions of nearby stars has improved to enable the discovery of extrasolar planets in the Neptu…
A direct and differential imaging search for sub-stellar companions to epsilon Indi A
K. Geissler, S. Kellner, W. Brandner +7
We have carried out a direct and differential imaging search for sub-stellar companions to eps Indi A using the adaptive optics system NACO at the ESO VLT. The observations were ca…
Exploring The Frequency Of Close-In Jovian Planets Around M Dwarfs
Michael Endl, William D. Cochran, Martin Kuerster +4
We discuss our high precision radial velocity results of a sample of 90 M dwarfs observed with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope and the Harlan J. Smith 2.7 m Telescope at McDonald Observ…
Hyades Oxygen Abundances from the Lambda 6300 [O I] Line: The Giant-Dwarf Discrepancy Revisited
S. C. Schuler, A. P. Hatzes, J. R. King +2
We present the results of our abundance analysis of Fe, Ni, and O in high S/N, high-resolution VLT/UVES and McDonald/2dcoude spectra of nine dwarfs and three giants in the Hyades o…
Extrasolar Terrestrial Planets: Can We Detect Them Already?
Michael Endl, Martin Kuerster, Frederic Rouesnel +3
With the example of Proxima Centauri we discuss the feasibility of detecting terrestrial planets (1 to a few M_Earth) using the high precision radial velocity (RV) technique. If a…
