World-leading science with SPIRou - the nIR spectropolarimeter / high-precision velocimeter for CFHT
X. Delfosse, J. -F. Donati, D. Kouach +22
SPIRou is a near-infrared (nIR) spectropolarimeter / velocimeter proposed as a new-generation instrument for CFHT. SPIRou aims in particular at becoming world-leader on two forefro…
The PLATO 2.0 Mission
H. Rauer, C. Catala, C. Aerts +159
PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it…
The contribution of secondary eclipses as astrophysical false positives to exoplanet transit surveys
A. Santerne, F. Fressin, R. F. Díaz +3
We investigate in this paper the astrophysical false-positive configuration in exoplanet-transit surveys that involves eclipsing binaries and giant planets which present only a sec…
Is there plenty of metal-poor stars with planets in the Galactic thick disk?
V. Zh. Adibekyan, N. C. Santos, S. G. Sousa +2
We performed an uniform spectroscopic analysis of 1111 FGK dwarfs observed as part of the HARPS GTO planet search program. We applied a purely chemical approach, based on [alpha/Fe…
Successful Asteroseismology for a Better Characterization of the Exoplanet HAT-P-7b
M. Oshagh, A. Grigahcène, O. Benomar +4
It is well known that asteroseismology is the unique technique permitting the study of the internal structure of pulsating stars using their pulsational frequencies, which is per s…
