Direct Imaging Discovery of Giant Exoplanet Pictoris d: A Decade-Long Game of Hide-and-Seek
Ben J. Sutlieff, Markus J. Bonse, Valentin Christiaens +94
The paper reports the direct imaging discovery of a third giant exoplanet, β Pictoris d, using VLT/ERIS and archival JWST/NIRCam and VLT/SPHERE data, and characterizes its orbit, t…
Next-generation Exo-REM atmospheric models: application to VHS 1256 b to emulate patchy clouds
Alice Radcliffe, Benjamin Charnay, Anne-Marie Lagrange +7
Condensate clouds are a defining feature of brown dwarf and exoplanet atmospheres, producing a broad range of colours on the CMD and giving rise to spectral features such as the di…
The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE) V. Full sample characterization
V. Squicciarini, S. Desidera, G. Chauvin +109
Unbiased surveys of large stellar samples are the prime means through which the prevalence of exoplanets can be derived, and crucial constraints to planet formation models can be s…
Exploration of the inner region of the system HD 142527
T. M. H. Tran, M. Langlois, O. Flasseur +6
HD 142527 is a well-studied intermediate-mass T Tauri star surrounded by a transitional disk with a large dust cavity, spiral structures, and an accreting low-mass companion. Despi…
The ExoGRAVITY survey: A K-band spectral library of giant exoplanet and brown dwarf companions
J. Kammerer, T. O. Winterhalder, S. Lacour +106
Direct observations of exoplanet and brown dwarf companions with near-infrared interferometry, first enabled by the dual-field mode of VLTI/GRAVITY, provide unique measurements of…
Exomoon search with VLTI/GRAVITY around the substellar companion HD 206893 B
Q. Kral, J. Wang, J. Kammerer +130
Direct astrometric detection of exomoons remains unexplored. This study presents the first application of high-precision astrometry to search for exomoons around substellar compani…
