Direct Imaging Discovery of a `Super-Jupiter' Around the late B-Type Star Kappa And

J. Carson, C. Thalmann, M. Janson +52

We present the direct imaging discovery of an extrasolar planet, or possible low-mass brown dwarf, at a projected separation of 55 +/- 2 AU (1.058 +/- 0.007 arcsec) from the B9-typ…

High Contrast Imaging of the Close Environment of HD 142527 -

J. Rameau, G. Chauvin, A. -M. Lagrange +4

Context. It has long been suggested that circumstellar disks surrounding young stars may be the signposts of planets, and still more since the recent discoveries of embedded subste…

Deep search for companions to probable young brown dwarfs

G. Chauvin, J. Faherty, A. Boccaletti +10

We have obtained high contrast images of four nearby, faint, and very low mass objects 2MASSJ04351455-1414468, SDSSJ044337.61+000205.1, 2MASSJ06085283-2753583 and 2MASSJ06524851-57…

Impact of angular differential imaging on circumstellar disk images

J. Milli, D. Mouillet, A. M. Lagrange +4

Direct imaging of circumstellar disks requires high-contrast and high-resolution techniques. The angular differential imaging (ADI) technique is one of them, initially developed fo…

An insight in the surroundings of HR4796

A. -M. Lagrange, J. Milli, A. Boccaletti +8

HR4796 is a young, early A-type star harbouring a well structured debris disk, shaped as a ring with sharp inner edges. It forms with the M-type star HR4796B a binary system, with…

A Likely Close-In Low-Mass Stellar Companion to the Transitional Disk Star HD 142527

Beth Biller, Sylvestre Lacour, Attila Juhász +11

With the uniquely high contrast within 0.1" (Δmag(L') = 5-6.5 magnitudes) available using Sparse Aperture Masking (SAM) with NACO at VLT, we detected asymmetry in the flux from the…

High-contrast spectroscopy of SCR J1845-6357 B

Arthur Vigan, Mickaël Bonnefoy, Gaël Chauvin +2

Spectral characterization of sub-stellar companions is essential to understand their composition and formation processes. However, the large contrast ratio of the brightness of eac…

Orbital characterization of the βPictoris b giant planet

G. Chauvin, A. -M. Lagrange, H. Beust +8

In June 2010, we confirmed the existence of a giant planet in the disk of the young star Beta Pictoris, located between 8 AU and 15 AU from the star. This young planet offers the r…

beta Pic b position relative to the Debris Disk

A. -M. Lagrange, A. Boccaletti, J. Milli +7

Context. We detected in 2009 a giant, close-by planet orbiting β Pic, a young star surrounded with a disk, extensively studied for more than 20 years. We showed that if located on…
