A search for accreting young companions embedded in circumstellar disks: High-contrast H imaging with VLT/SPHERE

G. Cugno, S. P. Quanz, S. Hunziker +37

Aims: We want to detect and quantify observables related to accretion processes occurring locally in circumstellar disks, which could be attributed to young forming planets. We foc…

SPHERE / ZIMPOL high resolution polarimetric imager. I. System overview, PSF parameters, coronagraphy, and polarimetry

H. M. Schmid, A. Bazzon, R. Roelfsema +59

We describe the Zurich Imaging Polarimeter (ZIMPOL), the visual focal plane subsystem of the SPHERE "VLT planet finder", which pushes the limits of current AO systems to shorter wa…

Discovery of a planetary-mass companion within the gap of the transition disk around PDS 70

M. Keppler, M. Benisty, A. Müller +123

Young circumstellar disks are of prime interest to understand the physical and chemical conditions under which planet formation takes place. Only very few detections of planet cand…

The GJ 504 system revisited. Combining interferometric, radial velocity, and high contrast imaging data

M. Bonnefoy, K. Perraut, A. -M. Lagrange +79

The G-type star GJ504A is known to host a 3 to 35 MJup companion whose temperature, mass, and projected separation all contribute to make it a test case for the planet formation th…

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…

New disk discovered with VLT/SPHERE around the M star GSC 07396-00759

E. Sissa, J. Olofsson, A. Vigan +30

Debris disks are usually detected through the infrared excess over the photospheric level of their host star. The most favorable stars for disk detection are those with spectral ty…

VLT/SPHERE astrometric confirmation and orbital analysis of the brown dwarf companion HR 2562 B

A. -L. Maire, L. Rodet, C. Lazzoni +46

Context. A low-mass brown dwarf has been recently imaged around HR 2562 (HD 50571), a star hosting a debris disk resolved in the far infrared. Interestingly, the companion location…

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…

Discovery of a brown dwarf companion to the star HIP 64892

A. Cheetham, M. Bonnefoy, S. Desidera +89

We report the discovery of a bright, brown dwarf companion to the star HIP 64892, imaged with VLT/SPHERE during the SHINE exoplanet survey. The host is a B9.5V member of the Lower-…
