Three new exoplanet systems from the Dispersed Matter Planet Project
J. R. Barnes, C. A. Haswell, Z. O. B. Ross +7
We present a radial velocity analysis of three bright, low-activity stars identified by the Dispersed Matter Planet Project (DMPP). We use a Bayesian framework to compare purely Ke…
HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT
Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174
This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…
The Dispersed Matter Planet Project Sample -- Detection limits, Occurrence Rates and New Planets
Matthew R. Standing, John R. Barnes, Carole A. Haswell +8
DMPP is a radial-velocity survey that aims to detect planets around stars exhibiting anomalous activity signatures, consistent with the presence of close-in evaporating planets. He…
BEBOP VIII. SOPHIE radial velocities reveal an eccentric, circumbinary brown dwarf
Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Thomas A. Baycroft, Neda Heidari +18
Circumbinary configurations offer a test of planet formation in an altered environment, where the inner binary has perturbed a protoplanetary disc. Comparisons of the physical and…
HD 28471: a near-resonant compact multiplanet system with a possible cold giant planet
A. T. Stevenson, C. A. Haswell, J. R. Barnes +5
We present radial velocity measurements of the star HD 28471, observed by HARPS at the ESO 3.6 m telescope over a baseline of years. We have searched for planetary compani…
BEBOP VII. SOPHIE discovery of BEBOP-3b, a circumbinary giant planet on an eccentric orbit
Thomas A. Baycroft, Alexandre Santerne, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud +21
Planetary systems orbiting close binaries are valuable testing grounds for planet formation and migration models. More detections with good mass measurements are needed. We present…
