Two Fabry-Perots and two calibration units for CARMENES
Sebastian Schafer, Eike W. Günther, Ansgar Reiners +3
The wavelength calibration and nightly drift measurements for CARMENES (Calar Alto high-Resolution search for M dwarfs with Exoearths with Near-infrared and optical Echelle Spectro…
TAUKAM: a new prime-focus camera for the Tautenburg Schmidt Telescope
Bringfried Stecklum, Jochen Eislöffel, Sylvio Klose +6
TAUKAM stands for "TAUtenburg KAMera", which will become the new prime-focus imager for the Tautenburg Schmidt telescope. It employs an e2v 6kx6k CCD and is under manufacture by Sp…
A giant exoplanet orbiting a very low-mass star challenges planet formation models
J. C. Morales, A. J. Mustill, I. Ribas +179
Statistical analyses from exoplanet surveys around low-mass stars indicate that super-Earth and Neptune-mass planets are more frequent than gas giants around such stars, in agreeme…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs - HD 147379b: A nearby Neptune in the temperate zone of an early-M dwarf
A. Reiners, I. Ribas, M. Zechmeister +169
We report on the first star discovered to host a planet detected by radial velocity (RV) observations obtained within the CARMENES survey for exoplanets around M dwarfs. HD 147379…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs: High-resolution optical and near-infrared spectroscopy of 324 survey stars
A. Reiners, M. Zechmeister, J. A. Caballero +170
The CARMENES radial velocity (RV) survey is observing 324 M dwarfs to search for any orbiting planets. In this paper, we present the survey sample by publishing one CARMENES spectr…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. First visual-channel radial-velocity measurements and orbital parameter updates of seven M-dwarf planetary systems
T. Trifonov, M. Kürster, M. Zechmeister +166
Context: The main goal of the CARMENES survey is to find Earth-mass planets around nearby M-dwarf stars. Seven M-dwarfs included in the CARMENES sample had been observed before wit…
HERMES: a high-resolution fibre-fed spectrograph for the Mercator telescope
Gert Raskin, Hans Van Winckel, Herman Hensberge +18
The HERMES high-resolution spectrograph project aims at exploiting the specific potential of small but flexible telescopes in observational astrophysics. The optimised optical desi…
GROND - a 7-channel imager
J. Greiner, W. Bornemann, C. Clemens +19
We describe the construction of GROND, a 7-channel imager, primarily designed for rapid observations of gamma-ray burst afterglows. It allows simultaneous imaging in the Sloan g'r'…
