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…
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…
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…
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…
Astrometric detection of a Neptune-mass candidate planet in the nearest M-dwarf binary system GJ65 with VLTI/GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +65
The detection of low-mass planets orbiting the nearest stars is a central stake of exoplanetary science, as they can be directly characterized much more easily than their distant c…
Four-of-a-kind? Comprehensive atmospheric characterisation of the HR 8799 planets with VLTI/GRAVITY
E. Nasedkin, P. Mollière, S. Lacour +95
With four companions at separations from 16 to 71 au, HR 8799 is a unique target for direct imaging, presenting an opportunity for the comparative study of exoplanets with a shared…
Combining Gaia and GRAVITY: Characterising five new Directly Detected Substellar Companions
T. O. Winterhalder, S. Lacour, A. Mérand +96
Precise mass constraints are vital for the characterisation of brown dwarfs and exoplanets. Here we present how the combination of data obtained by Gaia and GRAVITY can help enlarg…
The GRAVITY young stellar object survey: XI. Imaging the hot gas emission around the Herbig Ae star HD 58647
Y. -I. Bouarour, R. Garcia Lopez, J. Sanchez-Bermudez +45
We aim to investigate the origin of the HI Br emission in young stars by using GRAVITY to image the innermost region of circumstellar disks, where important physical processes s…
First VLTI/GRAVITY Observations of HIP 65426 b: Evidence for a Low or Moderate Orbital Eccentricity
S. Blunt, W. O. Balmer, J. J. Wang +95
Giant exoplanets have been directly imaged over orders of magnitude of orbital separations, prompting theoretical and observational investigations of their formation pathways. In t…
Direct discovery of the inner exoplanet in the HD206893 system. Evidence for deuterium burning in a planetary-mass companion
S. Hinkley, S. Lacour, G. -D. Marleau +110
Long term precise radial velocity (RV) monitoring of the nearby star HD206893, as well as anomalies in the system proper motion, have suggested the presence of an additional, inner…
