The SPIRou Legacy Survey: Detection of a nearby world orbiting in the habitable zone of Gl725B achieved by correcting strong telluric contamination in near-infrared radial velocities with WAPITI
M. Ould-Elhkim, C. Moutou, J. -F. Donati +15
M dwarfs are prime targets in the search for exoplanets because of their prevalence and because low-mass planets can be better detected with radial velocity (RV) methods. In partic…
Measuring the magnetic fields in the chromospheres of low-mass stars
Tianqi Cang, Pascal Petit, Jean-François Donati +11
Magnetic fields in the upper atmospheres of solar-like stars are believed to provide an enormous amount of energy to power the hot coronae and drive large-scale eruptions that coul…
Far beyond the Sun: III. The magnetic cycle of Horologii
Julián D. Alvarado-Gómez, Gaitee A. J. Hussain, Eliana M. Amazo-Gómez +6
We present a comprehensive investigation of the magnetic cycle of the young, active solar analogue Horologii ( Hor) based on intensive spectropolarimetric monitoring using…
Chromaticity of stellar activity in radial velocities : Anti-correlated families of lines on the M dwarf EV Lac with SPIRou and SOPHIE
Pierre Larue, Xavier Delfosse, Andres Carmona +33
Context. In the search for exoplanets using radial velocities (RV), stellar activity has become one of the main limiting factors for detectability. Fortunately, activity-induced RV…
Using Doppler Imaging to model stellar activity and search for planets around Sun-like stars
Baptiste Klein, Suzanne Aigrain, Michael Cretignier +9
Doppler Imaging (DI) is a well-established technique to map a physical field at a stellar surface from a time series of high-resolution spectra. In this proof-of-concept study, we…
The magnetic and spin-down properties of slowly rotating fully convective M dwarfs
Victor See, Louis Amard, Stefano Bellotti +19
The evolution of the magnetism, winds and rotation of low-mass stars are all linked. One of the most common ways to probe the magnetic properties of low-mass stars is with the Zeem…
