The SOPHIE search for northern extrasolar planets VIII. Follow-up of ELODIE candidates: long-period brown-dwarf companions
F. Bouchy, D. Ségransan, R. F. Díaz +29
Long-period brown dwarf companions detected in radial velocity surveys are important targets for direct imaging and astrometry to calibrate the mass-luminosity relation of substell…
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…
Characterising exoplanets and their environment with UV transmission spectroscopy
L. Fossati, V. Bourrier, D. Ehrenreich +36
Exoplanet science is now in its full expansion, particularly after the CoRoT and Kepler space missions that led us to the discovery of thousands of extra-solar planets. The last de…
