Hunting exomoons with a kilometric baseline interferometer
Thomas O. Winterhalder, Antoine Mérand, Sylvestre Lacour +3
Despite numerous search campaigns based on a diverse set of observational techniques, exomoons - prospective satellites of extrasolar planets - remain an elusive and hard-to-pin-do…
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…
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…
Constraints on the Orbit of the Young Substellar Companion GQ Lup B from High-Resolution Spectroscopy and VLTI/GRAVITY Astrometry
Vidya Venkatesan, S. Blunt, J. J. Wang +99
Understanding the orbits of giant planets is critical for testing planet formation models, particularly at wide separations greater than 10 au where traditional core accretion beco…
Astrometric exomoon detection by means of optical interferometry
T. O. Winterhalder, A. Mérand, J. Kammerer +12
Context: With no conclusive detection to date, the search for exomoons, satellites of planets orbiting other stars, remains a formidable challenge. Detecting these objects, compili…
V659 Cen: System Parameters Updated
Nancy Remage Evans, Charles Proffitt, Pierre Kervella +8
V659 Cen is a classical Cepheid which is part of a multiple system. Previous observations have shown that a hot companion dominates an ultraviolet spectrum and a cooler main sequen…
"Industrial-Scale" Black Hole Selection without a Satellite
Zexuan Wu, Subo Dong, Andrew P. Gould +2
The forthcoming GRAVITY+ instrument promises to usher in an era of "industrial-scale" mass measurements of isolated black holes (BHs), with the potential to assemble a sample of ma…
The mid-infrared spectrum of Pictoris b. First VLTI/MATISSE interferometric observations of an exoplanet
M. Houllé, F. Millour, P. Berio +46
Few spectra of directly-imaged exoplanets have been obtained in the mid-infrared (> 3 m). This region is particularly rich in molecular spectral signatures, whose measurements c…
Direct imaging discovery of a young giant planet orbiting on Solar System scales
T. Stolker, M. Samland, L. B. F. M. Waters +102
HD 135344 AB is a young visual binary system that is best known for the protoplanetary disk around the secondary star. The circumstellar environment of the A0-type primary star, on…
Orbit and atmosphere of HIP 99770 b through the eyes of VLTI/GRAVITY
T. O. Winterhalder, J. Kammerer, S. Lacour +92
Context: Inferring the likely formation channel of giant exoplanets and brown dwarf companions from orbital and atmospheric observables remains a formidable challenge. Further and…
Surface brightness-colour relations of Cepheids calibrated by optical interferometry
M. C. Bailleul, N. Nardetto, V. Hocdé +12
Surface brightness-colour relations (SBCRs) are widely used to determine the angular diameters of stars. They are in particular used in the Baade-Wesselink (BW) method of distance…
Circumstellar emission of Cepheids across the instability strip: Mid-infrared observations with VLTI/MATISSE
V. Hocdé, A. Matter, N. Nardetto +14
The circumstellar envelopes (CSE) of Cepheids are still not well characterized despite their potential impact on distance determination via both the period-luminosity relation and…
Multiplicity of Galactic Cepheids from long-baseline interferometry V. High-accuracy orbital parallax and mass of SU Cygni
A. Gallenne, N. R. Evans, P. Kervella +23
Cepheid masses are particularly necessary to help solving the mass discrepancy, while independent distance determinations provide crucial test of the period-luminosity relation and…
