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…
Rotational modulation and long-term evolution of the small-scale magnetic fields of M dwarfs observed with SPIRou
P. I. Cristofari, J. -F. Donati, S. Bellotti +7
M dwarfs are known to host magnetic fields, impacting exoplanet studies and playing a key role in stellar and planetary formation and evolution. Observations revealed the long-term…
Characterizing planetary systems with SPIRou: Detection of a sub-Neptune in a 6-day period orbit around the M dwarf Gl 410
A. Carmona, X. Delfosse, M. Ould-Elhkim +42
The search for exoplanets around nearby M dwarfs represents a crucial milestone in the census of planetary systems in the vicinity of our Solar System. Since 2018 our team is carry…
A BCool survey of stellar magnetic cycles
S. Bellotti, P. Petit, S. V. Jeffers +6
The magnetic cycle on the Sun consists of two consecutive 11-yr sunspot cycles and exhibits a polarity reversal around sunspot maximum. Although solar dynamo theories have progress…
