EChO - Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory
G. Tinetti, J. P. Beaulieu, T. Henning +131
A dedicated mission to investigate exoplanetary atmospheres represents a major milestone in our quest to understand our place in the universe by placing our Solar System in context…
Euclid Definition Study Report
R. Laureijs, J. Amiaux, S. Arduini +216
Euclid is a space-based survey mission from the European Space Agency designed to understand the origin of the Universe's accelerating expansion. It will use cosmological probes to…
The substellar population of Sigma Orionis: A deep wide survey
V. J. S. Béjar, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, R. Rebolo +5
We present a deep I,Z photometric survey covering a total area of 1.12 deg^{2} of the Sigma Orionis cluster (Icompl=22 and Zcompl=21.5mag). From I, I-Z color-magnitude diagrams we…
Near-infrared Linear Polarization of Ultracool Dwarfs
M. R. Zapatero Osorio, V. J. S. Béjar, B. Goldman +5
We report on near-infrared J- and H-band linear polarimetric photometry of eight ultracool dwarfs (two late-M, five L0-L7.5, and one T2.5) with known evidence for photometric varia…
The impact of the Kasatochi eruption on the Moon's illumination during the August 2008 lunar eclipse
A. García Muñoz, E. Pallé, M. R. Zapatero Osorio +1
The Moon's changeable aspect during a lunar eclipse is largely attributable to variations in the refracted unscattered sunlight absorbed by the terrestrial atmosphere that occur as…
Search and characterization of T-type planetary mass candidates in the sigma Orionis cluster
K. Peña Ramírez, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, V. J. S. Béjar +2
(Abridged) We aim to: i) confirm the presence of methane absorption in S Ori 73 (a T-type member candidate of the sig Orionis cluster, 3 Myr, 352 pc) through methane imaging; ii) s…
Characterizing the atmospheres of transiting rocky planets around late type dwarfs
E. Pallé, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, A. García Muñoz
Visible and near-infrared spectra of transiting hot Jupiter planets have recently been observed, revealing some of the atmospheric constituents of their atmospheres. In the near fu…
