Mapping of shadows cast on a protoplanetary disk by a close binary system

V. D'Orazi, R. Gratton, S. Desidera +47

For a comprehensive understanding of planetary formation and evolution, we need to investigate the environment in which planets form: circumstellar disks. Here we present high-cont…

Multi-epoch Direct Imaging and Time-Variable Scattered Light Morphology of the HD 163296 Protoplanetary Disk

Evan A. Rich, John P. Wisniewski, Thayne Currie +58

We present H-band polarized scattered light imagery and JHK high-contrast spectroscopy of the protoplanetary disk around HD 163296 observed with the HiCIAO and SCExAO/CHARIS instru…

SPHERE / ZIMPOL high resolution polarimetric imager. I. System overview, PSF parameters, coronagraphy, and polarimetry

H. M. Schmid, A. Bazzon, R. Roelfsema +59

We describe the Zurich Imaging Polarimeter (ZIMPOL), the visual focal plane subsystem of the SPHERE "VLT planet finder", which pushes the limits of current AO systems to shorter wa…

Orbital characterization of GJ1108A system, and comparison of dynamical mass with model-derived mass for resolved binaries

T. Mizuki, M. Kuzuhara, K. Mede +55

We report an orbital characterization of GJ1108Aab that is a low-mass binary system in pre-main-sequence phase. Via the combination of astrometry using adaptive optics and radial v…

SPOTS: The Search for Planets Orbiting Two Stars. III. Complete Sample and Statistical Analysis

Ruben Asensio-Torres, Markus Janson, Mariangela Bonavita +8

Binary stars constitute a large percentage of the stellar population, yet relatively little is known about the planetary systems orbiting them. Most constraints on circumbinary pla…

The gravitational mass of Proxima Centauri measured with SPHERE from a microlensing event

A. Zurlo, R. Gratton, D. Mesa +19

Proxima Centauri, our closest stellar neighbour, is a low-mass M5 dwarf orbiting in a triple system. An Earth-mass planet with an 11 day period has been discovered around this star…
