Discovering and Characterising Exoplanets and Ultracool Dwarfs with the Square Kilometre Array
Robert D. Kavanagh, Juan B. Climent, Philippe Zarka +14
The majority of the Solar System planets are sources of bright radio emission, driven by energetic electrons trapped within each planet's magnetic field. Detection of this emission…
Multi-epoch scattered-light analysis of HD 135344B: new evidence for a spiral-driving protoplanet
J. Latour, V. Christiaens, O. Absil +17
The HD 135344B (SAO 206462) disk exhibits strong signposts of planet formation. ALMA images in the sub-mm revealed a gap-crossing dust filament whose position coincides with a twis…
