Assessment of PLATO Science Performance
Juan Cabrera, Heike Rauer, Reza Samadi +121
The PLATO mission is scheduled for launch early 2027. In this paper we present an overview of the performance drivers for the mission at the time where all flight models of the cam…
The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
PlatoSim: An end-to-end PLATO camera simulator for modelling high-precision space-based photometry
N. Jannsen, J. De Ridder, D. Seynaeve +21
PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO) is the ESA M3 space mission dedicated to detect and characterise transiting exoplanets including information from the asterosei…
Herschel detects oxygen in the beta Pictoris debris disk
A. Brandeker, G. Cataldi, G. Olofsson +28
The young star beta Pictoris is well known for its dusty debris disk, produced through the grinding down by collisions of planetesimals, kilometre-sized bodies in orbit around the…
The PLATO Simulator: modelling of high-precision high-cadence space-based imaging
P. Marcos-Arenal, W. Zima, J. De Ridder +8
Many aspects of the design trade-off of a space-based instrument and its performance can best be tackled through simulations of the expected observations. The complex interplay of…
The ASTROID Simulator Software Package: Realistic Modelling of High-Precision High-Cadence Space-Based Imaging
P. Marcos-Arenal, W. Zima, J. De Ridder +2
The preparation of a space-mission that carries out any kind of imaging to detect high-precision low-amplitude variability of its targets requires a robust model for the expected p…
Herschel images of Fomalhaut. An extrasolar Kuiper Belt at the height of its dynamical activity
B. Acke, M. Min, C. Dominik +33
Fomalhaut is a young, nearby star that is suspected to harbor an infant planetary system, interspersed with one or more belts of dusty debris. We present far-infrared images obtain…
Warm water vapour in the sooty outflow from a luminous carbon star
L. Decin, M. Agundez, M. J. Barlow +34
In 2001, the discovery of circumstellar water vapour around the ageing carbon star IRC+10216 was announced. This detection challenged the current understanding of chemistry in old…
Towards ensemble asteroseismology of the young open clusters Chi Persei and NGC 6910
S. Saesen, A. Pigulski, F. Carrier +71
As a result of the variability survey in Chi Persei and NGC6910, the number of Beta Cep stars that are members of these two open clusters is increased to twenty stars, nine in NGC6…
Photometric multi-site campaign on the open cluster NGC 884 I. Detection of the variable stars
S. Saesen, F. Carrier, A. Pigulski +62
CONTEXT: Recent progress in the seismic interpretation of field beta Cep stars has resulted in improvements of the physics in the stellar structure and evolution models of massive…
