The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE) V. Full sample characterization
V. Squicciarini, S. Desidera, G. Chauvin +109
Unbiased surveys of large stellar samples are the prime means through which the prevalence of exoplanets can be derived, and crucial constraints to planet formation models can be s…
A transiting, temperate mini-Neptune orbiting the M dwarf TOI-1759 unveiled by TESS
Néstor Espinoza, Enric Pallé, Jonas Kemmer +66
We report the discovery and characterization of TOI-1759~b, a temperate (400 K) sub-Neptune-sized exoplanet orbiting the M~dwarf TOI-1759 (TIC 408636441). TOI-1759 b was observed b…
The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE)- I Sample definition and target characterization
S. Desidera, G. Chauvin, M. Bonavita +105
Large surveys with new-generation high-contrast imaging instruments are needed to derive the frequency and properties of exoplanet populations with separations from 5 to 300…
The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE). III. The demographics of young giant exoplanets below 300 au with SPHERE
A. Vigan, C. Fontanive, M. Meyer +108
The SHINE project is a 500-star survey performed with SPHERE on the VLT for the purpose of directly detecting new substellar companions and understanding their formation and early…
RefPlanets: Search for reflected light from extra-solar planets with SPHERE/ZIMPOL
S. Hunziker, H. M. Schmid, D. Mouillet +55
RefPlanets is a guaranteed time observation (GTO) programme that uses the Zurich IMaging POLarimeter (ZIMPOL) of SPHERE/VLT for a blind search for exoplanets in wavelengths from 60…
SPHERE / ZIMPOL high resolution polarimetric imager. I. System overview, PSF parameters, coronagraphy, and polarimetry
H. M. Schmid, A. Bazzon, R. Roelfsema +59
We describe the Zurich Imaging Polarimeter (ZIMPOL), the visual focal plane subsystem of the SPHERE "VLT planet finder", which pushes the limits of current AO systems to shorter wa…
