Investigating three Sirius-like systems with SPHERE
R. Gratton, V. D'Orazi, T. A. Pacheco +61
Sirius-like systems are wide binaries composed of a white dwarf (WD) and a companion of a spectral type earlier than M0. The WD progenitor evolves in isolation, but its wind during…
Orbital and spectral characterization of the benchmark T-type brown dwarf HD 19467B
A. -L. Maire, K. Molaverdikhani, S. Desidera +42
Context. Detecting and characterizing substellar companions for which the luminosity, mass, and age can be determined independently is of utter importance to test and calibrate the…
An image of the dust sublimation region in the nucleus of NGC 1068
GRAVITY Collaboration, O. Pfuhl, R. Davies +40
We present near-infrared interferometric data on the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, obtained with the GRAVITY instrument on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Inter…
SPHERE dynamical and spectroscopic characterization of HD142527B
R. Claudi, A. -L. Maire, D. Mesa +50
We detect the accreting low-mass companion HD142527B at a separation of 73 mas (11.4 au) from the star. No other companions with mass greater than 10 MJ are visible in the field of…
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…
The gravitational mass of Proxima Centauri measured with SPHERE from a microlensing event
A. Zurlo, R. Gratton, D. Mesa +19
Proxima Centauri, our closest stellar neighbour, is a low-mass M5 dwarf orbiting in a triple system. An Earth-mass planet with an 11 day period has been discovered around this star…
