NIRPS and TESS reveal a peculiar system around the M dwarf TOI-756: A transiting sub-Neptune and a cold eccentric giant

Léna Parc, François Bouchy, Neil J. Cook +148

The Near InfraRed Planet Searcher (NIRPS) joined HARPS on the 3.6-m ESO telescope at La Silla Observatory in April 2023, dedicating part of its Guaranteed Time Observations (GTO) p…

Chromaticity of stellar activity in radial velocities : Anti-correlated families of lines on the M dwarf EV Lac with SPIRou and SOPHIE

Pierre Larue, Xavier Delfosse, Andres Carmona +33

Context. In the search for exoplanets using radial velocities (RV), stellar activity has become one of the main limiting factors for detectability. Fortunately, activity-induced RV…

Possible Evidence for the Presence of Volatiles on the Warm Super-Earth TOI-270 b

Louis-Philippe Coulombe, Björn Benneke, Joshua Krissansen-Totton +25

The search for atmospheres on rocky exoplanets is a crucial step in understanding the processes driving atmosphere formation, retention, and loss. Past studies have revealed the ex…

NIRPS joining HARPS at ESO 3.6 m. On-sky performance and science objectives

Francois Bouchy, Rene Doyon, Francesco Pepe +131

The Near-InfraRed Planet Searcher (NIRPS) is a high-resolution, high-stability near-infrared (NIR) spectrograph equipped with an AO system. Installed on the ESO 3.6-m telescope, it…

Diving into the planetary system of Proxima with NIRPS -- Breaking the metre per second barrier in the infrared

Alejandro Suárez Mascareño, Étienne Artigau, Lucile Mignon +138

We obtained 420 high-resolution spectra of Proxima, over 159 nights, using the Near Infra Red Planet Searcher (NIRPS). We derived 149 nightly binned radial velocity measurements wi…

Blind search for activity-sensitive lines in the near-infrared using HARPS and NIRPS observations of Proxima and Gl 581

João Gomes da Silva, Elisa Delgado-Mena, Nuno C. Santos +145

Stellar activity variability is one of the main obstacles to the detection of Earth-like planets using the RV method. The aim of this work is to measure the effect of activity in t…

Hydride ion continuum hides absorption signatures in the NIRPS near-infrared transmission spectrum of the ultra-hot gas giant WASP-189b

Valentina Vaulato, Stefan Pelletier, David Ehrenreich +77

Ultra-hot Jupiters showcase extreme atmospheric conditions, including molecular dissociation, ionisation, and significant day-to-night temperature contrasts. Their close proximity…

Characterizing planetary systems with SPIRou: Detection of a sub-Neptune in a 6-day period orbit around the M dwarf Gl 410

A. Carmona, X. Delfosse, M. Ould-Elhkim +42

The search for exoplanets around nearby M dwarfs represents a crucial milestone in the census of planetary systems in the vicinity of our Solar System. Since 2018 our team is carry…
