The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs - HD 147379b: A nearby Neptune in the temperate zone of an early-M dwarf

A. Reiners, I. Ribas, M. Zechmeister +169

We report on the first star discovered to host a planet detected by radial velocity (RV) observations obtained within the CARMENES survey for exoplanets around M dwarfs. HD 147379…

ALMA Discovery of Dust Belts Around Proxima Centauri

Guillem Anglada, Pedro J. Amado, Jose L. Ortiz +19

Proxima Centauri, the star closest to our Sun, is known to host at least one terrestrial planet candidate in a temperate orbit. Here we report the ALMA detection of the star at 1.3…

The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs: High-resolution optical and near-infrared spectroscopy of 324 survey stars

A. Reiners, M. Zechmeister, J. A. Caballero +170

The CARMENES radial velocity (RV) survey is observing 324 M dwarfs to search for any orbiting planets. In this paper, we present the survey sample by publishing one CARMENES spectr…

Spectrum radial velocity analyser (SERVAL). High-precision radial velocities and two alternative spectral indicators

M. Zechmeister, A. Reiners, P. J. Amado +18

Context: The CARMENES survey is a high-precision radial velocity (RV) programme that aims to detect Earth-like planets orbiting low-mass stars. Aims: We develop least-squares fitti…

The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. First visual-channel radial-velocity measurements and orbital parameter updates of seven M-dwarf planetary systems

T. Trifonov, M. Kürster, M. Zechmeister +166

Context: The main goal of the CARMENES survey is to find Earth-mass planets around nearby M-dwarf stars. Seven M-dwarfs included in the CARMENES sample had been observed before wit…

Efficient scheduling of astronomical observations. Application to the CARMENES radial-velocity survey

A. Garcia-Piquer, J. C. Morales, I. Ribas +10

Targeted spectroscopic exoplanet surveys face the challenge of maximizing their planet detection rates by means of careful planning. The number of possible observation combinations…

High-cadence spectroscopy of M-dwarfs - II. Searching for stellar pulsations with HARPS

Zaira M. Berdiñas, Cristina Rodríguez-López, Pedro J. Amado +5

Stellar oscillations appear all across the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. Recent theoretical studies support their existence also in the atmospheres of M dwarfs. These studies predic…
