A probable giant planet imaged in the Beta Pictoris disk
A. -M. Lagrange, D. Gratadour, G. Chauvin +12
Since the discovery of its dusty disk in 1984, Beta Pictoris has become the prototype of young early-type planetary systems, and there are now various indications that a massive Jo…
TiO and VO broad band absorption features in the optical spectrum of the atmosphere of the hot-Jupiter HD209458b
J. -M. Desert, A. Vidal-Madjar, A. Lecavelier des Etangs +4
The presence of titanium oxide (TiO) and vanadium oxide (VO) gas phase species is searched for in the atmosphere of the hot Jupiter HD209458b. We compared a model for the planets t…
Atmospheric composition and structure of HD209458b
J. -M. Désert, A. Vidal-Madjar, A. Lecavelier des Etangs +4
Transiting planets like HD209458b offer a unique opportunity to scrutinize their atmospheric composition and structure. Transit spectroscopy probes the transition region between th…
A near-infrared interferometric survey of debris disc stars. II. CHARA/FLUOR observations of six early-type dwarfs
O. Absil, E. Di Folco, A. Merand +15
High-precision interferometric observations of six early-type main sequence stars known to harbour cold debris discs have been obtained in the near-infrared K band with the FLUOR i…
Misaligned spin-orbit in the XO-3 planetary system?
G. Hebrard, F. Bouchy, F. Pont +20
The transiting extrasolar planet XO-3b is remarkable, with a high mass and eccentric orbit. The unusual characteristics make it interesting to test whether its orbital plane is par…
Composition of Ices in Low-Mass Extrasolar Planets
Ulysse Marboeuf, Olivier Mousis, David Ehrenreich +4
We study the formation conditions of icy planetesimals in protoplanetary disks in order to determine the composition of ices in small and cold extrasolar planets. Assuming that ice…
