Revisiting TOI-4438 and TOI-442 planetary systems with new observations from SPIRou and TESS

J. Serrano Bell, G. Hébrard, E. Martioli +26

We present a comprehensive re-analysis of two star-planet systems: TOI-4438, an M3.5V star hosting a mini-Neptune in a 7.4-day orbit, and TOI-442, an M1V star with a 4-day period p…

Long-term activity cycles in planetary M stars observed with SOPHIE

C. G. Oviedo, A. P. Buccino, R. F. Díaz +5

M dwarfs are prime targets for exoplanet searches due to their low masses and radii, which enable the detection of small planets in their habitable zones (HZs). However, the magnet…

NIRPS tightens the mass estimate of GJ 3090 b and detects a planet near the stellar rotation period

Pierrot Lamontagne, Drew Weisserman, Charles Cadieux +148

We present an updated characterization of the planetary system orbiting the nearby M2 dwarf GJ 3090 (TOI-177; pc), based on new high-precision radial velocity (RV) observa…

The SPIRou Legacy Survey: Detection of a nearby world orbiting in the habitable zone of Gl725B achieved by correcting strong telluric contamination in near-infrared radial velocities with WAPITI

M. Ould-Elhkim, C. Moutou, J. -F. Donati +15

M dwarfs are prime targets in the search for exoplanets because of their prevalence and because low-mass planets can be better detected with radial velocity (RV) methods. In partic…

BEBOP VIII. SOPHIE radial velocities reveal an eccentric, circumbinary brown dwarf

Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Thomas A. Baycroft, Neda Heidari +18

Circumbinary configurations offer a test of planet formation in an altered environment, where the inner binary has perturbed a protoplanetary disc. Comparisons of the physical and…

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…

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…

BEBOP VII. SOPHIE discovery of BEBOP-3b, a circumbinary giant planet on an eccentric orbit

Thomas A. Baycroft, Alexandre Santerne, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud +21

Planetary systems orbiting close binaries are valuable testing grounds for planet formation and migration models. More detections with good mass measurements are needed. We present…

End-to-End simulation framework for astronomical spectrographs: SOXS, CUBES and ANDES

A. Scaudo, M. Genoni, G. Li Causi +73

We present our numerical simulation approach for the End-to-End (E2E) model applied to various astronomical spectrographs, such as SOXS (ESO-NTT), CUBES (ESO-VLT), and ANDES (ESO-E…

The PLATO Mission

Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842

PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…

An improved correction of radial-velocity systematic for the SOPHIE spectrograph

S. Grouffal, A. Santerne, N. C. Hara +4

High precision spectrographs might exhibit temporal variations of their reference velocity or nightly zero point (NZP). One way to monitor the NZP is to measure bright stars, which…

The lithium-rotation connection in the 125 Myr-old Pleiades cluster

J. Bouvier, D. Barrado, E. Moraux +9

The evolution of lithium abundance over a star's lifetime is indicative of transport processes operating in the stellar interior. We revisit the relationship between lithium conten…

SOPHIE velocimetry of Kepler transit candidates XII. KOI-1257 b: a highly eccentric three-month period transiting exoplanet

A. Santerne, G. Hébrard, M. Deleuil +36

In this paper we report a new transiting warm giant planet: KOI-1257 b. It was first detected in photometry as a planet-candidate by the space telescope and then val…

The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets XXXV. The interesting case of HD41248: stellar activity, no planets?

N. C. Santos, A. Mortier, J. P. Faria +21

The search for planets orbiting metal-poor stars is of uttermost importance for our understanding of the planet formation models. However, no dedicated searches have been conducted…
