A first look at the protoplanet WISPIT 2 b with VLTI/GRAVITY+
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter +116
Confirmed observations of young protoplanets actively undergoing the process of formation have remained rare to date. In this Letter, we present new insights into the nature of the…
Characterization of AF Lep b at high spectral resolution with VLT/HiRISE
A. Denis, A. Vigan, J. Costes +41
Since the recent discovery of the directly imaged super-Jovian planet AF Lep b, several studies have been conducted to characterize its atmosphere and constrain its orbital paramet…
The beta Pictoris system: Setting constraints on the planet and the disk structures at mid-IR wavelengths with NEAR
Nour Skaf, Anthony Boccaletti, Eric Pantin +26
[abridged] We analyzed mid-infrared high-contrast coronagraphic images of the beta Pictoris system, taking advantage of the NEAR experiment using the VLT/VISIR instrument. The goal…
First MATISSE L-band observations of HD 179218. Is the inner 10 au region rich in carbon dust particles?
E. Kokoulina, A. Matter, B. Lopez +58
Carbon is one of the most abundant components in the Universe. While silicates have been the main focus of solid phase studies in protoplanetary discs (PPDs), little is known about…
Imaging low-mass planets within the habitable zone of α Centauri
K. Wagner, A. Boehle, P. Pathak +39
Giant exoplanets on wide orbits have been directly imaged around young stars. If the thermal background in the mid-infrared can be mitigated, then exoplanets with lower masses can…
First direct detection of an exoplanet by optical interferometry; Astrometry and K-band spectroscopy of HR8799 e
S. Lacour, M. Nowak, J. Wang +85
To date, infrared interferometry at best achieved contrast ratios of a few times on bright targets. GRAVITY, with its dual-field mode, is now capable of high contrast obs…
