NIRPS Front-End: Design, performance, and lessons learned

N. Blind, U. Conod, A. de Meideros +13

NIRPS (Near Infra-Red Planet Searcher) is an AO-assisted and fiber-fed spectrograph for high precision radial velocity measurements in the YJH-bands. NIRPS also has the specificity…

A novel framework for semi-Bayesian radial velocities through template matching

A. M. Silva, J. P. Faria, N. C. Santos +28

The detection and characterization of an increasing variety of exoplanets has been in part possible thanks to the continuous development of high-resolution, stable spectrographs, a…

A candidate short-period sub-Earth orbiting Proxima Centauri

J. P. Faria, A. Suárez Mascareño, P. Figueira +34

Proxima Centauri is the closest star to the Sun. This small, low-mass, mid M dwarf is known to host an Earth-mass exoplanet with an orbital period of 11.2 days within the habitable…

CaRM: Exploring the chromatic Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. The cases of HD 189733b and WASP-127b

E. Cristo, N. C. Santos, O. Demangeon +34

In this paper we introduce CaRM, a semi-automatic code for the retrieval of broadband transmission spectra of transiting planets through the chromatic Rossiter-McLaughlin method. W…
