Oscillating red giants in the CoRoT exo-field: Asteroseismic mass and radius determination
T. Kallinger, W. W. Weiss, C. Barban +10
Context. Observations and analysis of solar-type oscillations in red-giant stars is an emerging aspect of asteroseismic analysis with a number of open questions yet to be explored.…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission VI. CoRoT-Exo-3b: The first secure inhabitant of the brown-dwarf desert
M. Deleuil, H. J. Deeg, R. Alonso +2
Context. The CoRoT space mission routinely provides high-precision photometric measurements of thousands of stars that have been continuously observed for months. Aims. The discove…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission IV: CoRoT-Exo-4b: A transiting planet in a 9.2 day synchronous orbit
S. Aigrain, A. Collier Cameron, M. Ollivier +32
CoRoT, the first space-based transit search, provides ultra-high precision light curves with continuous time-sampling over periods, of up to 5 months. This allows the detection of…
Molecular hydrogen in the circumstellar environments of Herbig Ae/Be stars probed by FUSE
C. Martin-Zaidi, M. Deleuil, J. Le Bourlot +7
We observed molecular hydrogen around a sample of pre-main sequence stars in order to better characterize their gaseous CS environments. We analyzed the FUSE (Far Ultraviolet Spect…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission III. The spectroscopic transit of CoRoT-Exo-2b with SOPHIE and HARPS
F. Bouchy, D. Queloz, M. Deleuil +34
We report on the spectroscopic transit of the massive hot-Jupiter CoRoT-Exo-2b observed with the high-precision spectrographs SOPHIE and HARPS. By modeling the radial velocity anom…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission II. CoRoT-Exo-2b: A transiting planet around an active G star
R. Alonso, M. Auvergne, A. Baglin +40
Context. The CoRoT mission, a pioneer in exoplanet searches from space, has completed its first 150 days of continuous observations of ~12000 stars in the galactic plane. An analys…
