Magnetic geometry of M dwarfs in the southern PLATO field

M. Diez, P. I. Cristofari, J. Morin +9

M dwarfs are the most abundant stars in the Galaxy and exhibit diverse magnetic behaviours. Understanding their large-scale magnetic fields is essential to study stellar dynamos an…

Magnetic field measurements in a sample of Class I and flat-spectrum protostars observed with SPIRou

L. Drouglazet, E. Alecian, A. Sousa +27

Magnetic fields play a crucial role throughout stellar evolution, regulating angular momentum, channelling accretion, and launching jets and outflows. While the magnetic properties…

Monitoring the magnetospheric accretion of the classical T Tauri star DO Tau with SPIRou

J. -F. Donati, P. I. Cristofari, A. Carmona +11

We present observations of the classical T Tauri star DO Tau collected with the near-infrared SPIRou spectropolarimeter and precision velocimeter at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telesc…

Spectropolarimetric characterisation of exoplanet host stars in preparation of the mission II. The magnetised wind environment of TOI-1860, DS Tuc A, and HD 63433

S. Bellotti, A. Lavail, D. Evensberget +10

We update the status of the spectropolarimetric campaign dedicated to characterise the magnetic field properties of a sample of known exoplanet-hosting stars included in the curren…

Searching for close-in planets around TWA 7 with SPIRou

J. -F. Donati, P. I. Cristofari, C. Moutou +7

We outline in this paper observations of the young pre-main-sequence low-mass star TWA 7, hosting a debris disk and a distant planet. Using data collected with the near-infrared SP…

Characterizing planetary systems with SPIRou: questions about the magnetic cycle of 55 Cnc A and two new planets around B

C. Moutou, P. Petit, P. Charpentier +12

One of the first exoplanet hosts discovered thirty years ago, the star 55 Cnc has been constantly observed ever since. It is now known to host at least five planets with orbital pe…
