SPHERE/SHINE reveals concentric rings in the debris disk of HIP 73145

M. Feldt, J. Olofsson, A. Boccaletti +22

The debris disk of HIP73145 has been detected in scattered light in the near-IR, and at far-IR wavelengths before, but no substructure has been seen so far. Detection of such subst…

First scattered-light images of the gas-rich debris disk around 49 Ceti

É. Choquet, J. Milli, Z. Wahhaj +31

We present the first scattered-light images of the debris disk around 49 ceti, a ~40 Myr A1 main sequence star at 59 pc, famous for hosting two massive dust belts as well as large…

Characterization of the inner disk around HD 141569 A from Keck/NIRC2 L-band vortex coronagraphy

Dimitri Mawet, Élodie Choquet, Olivier Absil +22

HD 141569 A is a pre-main sequence B9.5 Ve star surrounded by a prominent and complex circumstellar disk, likely still in a transition stage from protoplanetary to debris disk phas…

Discovery of a low-mass companion inside the debris ring surrounding the F5V star HD206893

Julien Milli, Pascale Hibon, Valentin Christiaens +30

Uncovering the ingredients and the architecture of planetary systems is a very active field of research that has fuelled many new theories on giant planet formation, migration, com…

Upper limits for Mass and Radius of objects around Proxima Cen from SPHERE/VLT

D. Mesa, A. Zurlo, J. Milli +36

The recent discovery of an earth-like planet around Proxima Centauri has drawn much attention to this star and its environment. We performed a series of observations of Proxima Cen…

The SHARDDS survey: first resolved image of the HD114082 debris disk in Lower Centaurus Crux with SPHERE

Zahed Wahhaj, Julien Milli, Grant Kennedy +17

We present the first resolved image of the debris disk around the 16+/-8 Myr old star, HD 114082. The observation was made in the H-band using the SPHERE instrument. The star is at…

VLT/SPHERE robust astrometry of the HR8799 planets at milliarcsecond-level accuracy Orbital architecture analysis with PyAstrOFit

Olivier Wertz, Olivier Absil, Carlos. A. Gómez González +4

HR8799 is orbited by at least four giant planets, making it a prime target for the recently commissioned Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch (VLT/SPHERE). As such…

SPHERE IRDIS and IFS astrometric strategy and calibration

Anne-Lise Maire, Maud Langlois, Kjetil Dohlen +16

We present the current results of the astrometric characterization of the VLT planet finder SPHERE over 2 years of on-sky operations. We first describe the criteria for the selecti…

Belt(s) of debris resolved around the Sco-Cen star HIP 67497

M. Bonnefoy, J. Milli, F. Ménard +15

In 2015, we initiated a survey of Scorpius-Centaurus A-F stars that are predicted to host warm-inner and cold-outer belts of debris similar to the case of the system HR~8799. The s…

Direct detection of scattered light gaps in the transitional disk around HD 97048 with VLT/SPHERE

C. Ginski, T. Stolker, P. Pinilla +28

We studied the well known circumstellar disk around the Herbig Ae/Be star HD 97048 with high angular resolution to reveal undetected structures in the disk, which may be indicative…

A near-infrared interferometric survey of debris-disc stars. V. PIONIER search for variability

S. Ertel, D. Defrère, O. Absil +10

Context: Extended circumstellar emission has been detected within a few 100 milli-arcsec around > 10% of nearby main sequence stars using near-infrared interferometry. Follow-up ob…

Speckle lifetime in XAO coronagraphic images: temporal evolution of SPHERE coronagraphic images

J. Milli, T. Banas, D. Mouill +11

The major source of noise in high-contrast imaging is the presence of slowly evolving speckles that do not average with time. The temporal stability of the point-spread-function (P…

Discovery of concentric broken rings at sub-arcsec separations in the HD 141569A gas-rich, debris disk with VLT/SPHERE

C. Perrot, A. Boccaletti, E. Pantin +45

Transition disks correspond to a short stage between the young protoplanetary phase and older debris phase. Along this evolutionary sequence, the gas component disappears leaving r…

Azimuthal asymmetries in the debris disk around HD61005

J. Olofsson, M. Samland, H. Avenhaus +30

Debris disks offer valuable insights into the latest stages of circumstellar disk evolution, and can possibly help us to trace the outcomes of planetary formation processes. In the…
