A first look at the protoplanet WISPIT 2 b with VLTI/GRAVITY+

GRAVITY+ Collaboration, K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter +116

Confirmed observations of young protoplanets actively undergoing the process of formation have remained rare to date. In this Letter, we present new insights into the nature of the…

Discovery of a star sensitive to the spin of Sgr A*

K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +85

Residing in the center of the Milky Way, Sgr A* is the closest massive black hole (MBH). Its vicinity has allowed measuring individual stellar orbits around it. The stars act as te…

Using VLTI/GRAVITY+ to determine the identity of a third planet candidate in the PDS 70 system

David Trevascus, Wolfgang Brandner, Olga Balsalobre-Ruza +75

Detections of protoplanets are rare and protoplanetary disk features mischaracterized as planets are common. PDS 70 is one of only two stars known to host multiple confirmed protop…

The GRAVITY young stellar object survey -- XV. The star-disk interaction region of the T Tauri star DO Tau

GRAVITY Collaboration, K. Perraut, J. Bouvier +61

Protoplanetary disks around young Sun-like stars are the cradles of the vast majority of detected exoplanets. Probing these disks at multiple spatial scales is key to uncovering ho…

Cold and eccentric: a high-spectral resolution view of 51 Eri b with VLT/HiRISE

A. Denis, A. Vigan, G. Chauvin +35

Discovered almost 10 years ago, the giant planet 51 Eridani b is one of the least separated (0.2 arcsec) and faintest (J = 19.74 mag) directly imaged exoplanets known to date. Its…

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…

ExoplaNeT accRetion mOnitoring sPectroscopic surveY (ENTROPY) - II. Time series of Balmer line profiles of Delorme 1(AB)b

Dorian Demars, Mickaël Bonnefoy, Catherine Dougados +14

Accretion processes in the planetary-mass regime remain poorly constrained, yet they strongly influence planet formation, evolution, and the composition of circumplanetary disks (C…

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…

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…

Differentiating Formation Models with New Dynamical Masses for the PDS 70 Protoplanets

David Trevascus, Sarah Blunt, Valentin Christiaens +22

Hot- and cold-start planet formation models predict differing luminosities for the young, bright planets that direct imaging surveys are most sensitive to. However, precise mass es…
