The CODEX-ESPRESSO experiment: cosmic dynamics, fundamental physics, planets and much more..
S. Cristiani, G. Avila, P. Bonifacio +36
CODEX, a high resolution, super-stable spectrograph to be fed by the E-ELT, the most powerful telescope ever conceived, will for the first time provide the possibility of directly…
Elodie metallicity-biased search for transiting Hot Jupiters IV. Intermediate period planets orbiting the stars HD43691 and HD132406
R. Da Silva, S. Udry, F. Bouchy +21
We report here the discovery of two planet candidates as a result of our planet-search programme biased in favour of high-metallicity stars, using the ELODIE spectrograph at the Ob…
Refined parameters and spectroscopic transit of the super-massive planet HD147506b
B. Loeillet, A. Shporer, F. Bouchy +26
In this paper, we report a refined determination of the orbital parameters and the detection of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect of the recently discovered transiting exoplanet HD147…
Planets around evolved intermediate-mass stars. I. Two substellar companions in the open clusters NGC 2423 and NGC 4349
C. Lovis, M. Mayor
Context. Many efforts are being made to characterize extrasolar planetary systems and unveil the fundamental mechanisms of planet formation. An important aspect of the problem, whi…
The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets. IX. Exoplanets orbiting HD 100777, HD 190647, and HD 221287
Dominique Naef, Michel Mayor, Willy Benz +8
The HARPS high-resolution high-accuracy spectrograph is offered to the astronomical community since the second half of 2003. Since then, we have been using this instrument for moni…
The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets XI. Super-Earths (5 & 8 M_Earth) in a 3-planet system
S. Udry, X. Bonfils, X. Delfosse +8
This Letter reports on the detection of two super-Earth planets in the Gl581 system, already known to harbour a hot Neptune. One of the planets has a mass of 5 M_Earth and resides…
A new list of thorium and argon spectral lines in the visible
C. Lovis, F. Pepe
Aims. We present a new list of thorium and argon emission lines in the visible obtained by analyzing high-resolution (R=110,000) spectra of a ThAr hollow cathode lamp. The aim of t…
An extrasolar planetary system with three Neptune-mass planets
C. Lovis, M. Mayor, F. Pepe +11
Over the past two years, the search for low-mass extrasolar planets has led to the detection of seven so-called 'hot Neptunes' or 'super-Earths' around Sun-like stars. These planet…
A new Neptune-mass planet orbiting HD 219828
C. Melo, N. C. Santos, W. Gieren +10
Two years ago a new benchmark for the planetary survey was set with the discoveries of three extrasolar planets with masses below 20. In particular, the serendipitous dis…
