SPHERE/SHINE reveals concentric rings in the debris disk of HIP 73145

M. Feldt, J. Olofsson, A. Boccaletti +22

The debris disk of HIP73145 has been detected in scattered light in the near-IR, and at far-IR wavelengths before, but no substructure has been seen so far. Detection of such subst…

Binaries among low-mass stars in nearby young moving groups

Markus Janson, Stephen Durkan, Stefan Hippler +5

The solar galactic neighbourhood contains a number of young co-moving associations of stars (so-called `young moving groups') with ages of ~10--150 Myr, which are prime targets for…

Discovery of a low-mass companion inside the debris ring surrounding the F5V star HD206893

Julien Milli, Pascale Hibon, Valentin Christiaens +30

Uncovering the ingredients and the architecture of planetary systems is a very active field of research that has fuelled many new theories on giant planet formation, migration, com…

Shadows and spirals in the protoplanetary disk HD 100453

M. Benisty, T. Stolker, A. Pohl +46

Understanding the diversity of planets requires to study the morphology and the physical conditions in the protoplanetary disks in which they form. We observed and spatially resolv…

Multiple rings in the transition disk and companion candidates around RXJ1615.3-3255. High contrast imaging with VLT/SPHERE

J. de Boer, G. Salter, M. Benisty +36

We search for signs of ongoing planet-disk interaction and study the distribution of small grains at the surface of the transition disk around RXJ1615.3-3255 (RX J1615). We observe…

HELIOS-Retrieval: An Open-source, Nested Sampling Atmospheric Retrieval Code, Application to the HR 8799 Exoplanets and Inferred Constraints for Planet Formation

Baptiste Lavie, João M. Mendonça, Christoph Mordasini +7

We present an open-source retrieval code named HELIOS-Retrieval (hereafter HELIOS-R), designed to obtain chemical abundances and temperature-pressure profiles from inverting the me…

Belt(s) of debris resolved around the Sco-Cen star HIP 67497

M. Bonnefoy, J. Milli, F. Ménard +15

In 2015, we initiated a survey of Scorpius-Centaurus A-F stars that are predicted to host warm-inner and cold-outer belts of debris similar to the case of the system HR~8799. The s…

A critical reassessment of the fundamental properties of GJ 504: Chemical composition and age

Valentina D'Orazi, Silvano Desidera, Raffaele Gratton +8

The recent development of brand new observational techniques and theoretical models have greatly advanced the exoplanet research field. Despite significant achievements, which have…

Resolving the planet-hosting inner regions of the LkCa 15 disk

C. Thalmann, M. Janson, A. Garufi +28

LkCa 15 hosts a pre-transitional disk as well as at least one accreting protoplanet orbiting in its gap. Previous disk observations have focused mainly on the outer disk, which is…

Sub-0.1" optical imaging of the Z CMa jets with SPHERE/ZIMPOL

S. Antoniucci, L. Podio, B. Nisini +15

Crucial information on the mass accretion-ejection in young stars can be obtained from high spatial resolution images of jets in sources with recurrent accretion outbursts. Using t…

Precise radial velocities of giant stars IX. HD 59686 Ab: a massive circumstellar planet orbiting a giant star in a ~13.6 au eccentric binary system

Mauricio Ortiz, Sabine Reffert, Trifon Trifonov +11

Context: For over 12 yr, we have carried out a precise radial velocity survey of a sample of 373 G and K giant stars using the Hamilton Échelle Spectrograph at Lick Observatory. Th…

MASSIVE: A Bayesian analysis of giant planet populations around low-mass stars

J. Lannier, P. Delorme, A. M. Lagrange +9

Direct imaging has led to the discovery of several giant planet and brown dwarf companions. These imaged companions populate a mass, separation and age domain (mass>1MJup, orbits>5…

Sparse aperture masking at the VLT II. Detection limits for the eight debris disks stars Pic, AU Mic, 49 Cet, Tel, Fomalhaut, g Lup, HD181327 and HR8799

L. Gauchet, S. Lacour, A. -M. Lagrange +4

Context. The formation of planetary systems is a common, yet complex mechanism. Numerous stars have been identified to possess a debris disk, a proto-planetary disk or a planetary…

Characterizing HR3549B using SPHERE

D. Mesa, A. Vigan, V. D'Orazi +28

Aims. In this work, we characterize the low mass companion of the A0 field star HR3549. Methods. We observed HR3549AB in imaging mode with the the NIR branch (IFS and IRDIS) of SPH…

Discovery of concentric broken rings at sub-arcsec separations in the HD 141569A gas-rich, debris disk with VLT/SPHERE

C. Perrot, A. Boccaletti, E. Pantin +45

Transition disks correspond to a short stage between the young protoplanetary phase and older debris phase. Along this evolutionary sequence, the gas component disappears leaving r…
