TOI-269 b: An eccentric sub-Neptune transiting a M2 dwarf revisited with ExTrA
M. Cointepas, J. M. Almenara, X. Bonfils +59
We present the confirmation of a new sub-Neptune close to the transition between super-Earths and sub-Neptunes transiting the M2 dwarf TOI- 269 (TIC 220479565, V = 14.4 mag, J = 10…
The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE)- I Sample definition and target characterization
S. Desidera, G. Chauvin, M. Bonavita +105
Large surveys with new-generation high-contrast imaging instruments are needed to derive the frequency and properties of exoplanet populations with separations from 5 to 300…
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…
First resolved observations of a highly asymmetric debris disc around HD 160305 with VLT/SPHERE
Clément Perrot, Philippe Thebault, Anne-Marie Lagrange +36
Context. Direct imaging of debris discs gives important information about their nature, their global morphology, and allows us to identify specific structures possibly in connectio…
Hint of curvature in the orbital motion of the exoplanet 51 Eridani b using 3 years of VLT/SPHERE monitoring
A. -L. Maire, L. Rodet, F. Cantalloube +49
Context. The 51 Eridani system harbors a complex architecture with its primary star forming a hierarchical system with the binary GJ 3305AB at a projected separation of 2000 au, a…
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…
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…
First light of the VLT planet finder SPHERE. IV. Physical and chemical properties of the planets around HR8799
M. Bonnefoy, A. Zurlo, J. L. Baudino +63
The system of four planets around HR8799 offers a unique opportunity to probe the physics and chemistry at play in the atmospheres of self-luminous young (~30 Myr) planets. We rece…
First light of the VLT planet finder SPHERE. III. New spectrophotometry and astrometry of the HR8799 exoplanetary system
A. Zurlo, A. Vigan, R. Galicher +70
The planetary system discovered around the young A-type HR8799 provides a unique laboratory to: a) test planet formation theories, b) probe the diversity of system architectures at…
