Radiative braking in the extended exosphere of GJ436b
Vincent Bourrier, David Ehrenreich, Alain Lecavelier des Etangs
The recent detection of a giant exosphere surrounding the warm Neptune GJ436 b has shed new light on the evaporation of close-in planets, revealing that moderately irradiated, low-…
The SOPHIE search for northern extrasolar planets VIII. A warm Neptune orbiting HD164595
B. Courcol, F. Bouchy, F. Pepe +23
High-precision radial velocity surveys explore the population of low-mass exoplanets orbiting bright stars. This allows accurately deriving their orbital parameters such as their o…
A giant comet-like cloud of hydrogen escaping the warm Neptune-mass exoplanet GJ 436b
David Ehrenreich, Vincent Bourrier, Peter J. Wheatley +8
Exoplanets orbiting close to their parent stars could lose some fraction of their atmospheres because of the extreme irradiation. Atmospheric mass loss primarily affects low-mass e…
SOPHIE velocimetry of Kepler transit candidates XVI. Tomographic measurement of the low obliquity of KOI-12b, a warm Jupiter transiting a fast rotator
Vincent Bourrier, Alain Lecavelier des Etangs, Guillaume Hébrard +11
We present the detection and characterization of the transiting warm Jupiter KOI-12b, first identified with Kepler with an orbital period of 17.86 days. We combine the analysis of…
