The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs - HD 147379b: A nearby Neptune in the temperate zone of an early-M dwarf

A. Reiners, I. Ribas, M. Zechmeister +169

We report on the first star discovered to host a planet detected by radial velocity (RV) observations obtained within the CARMENES survey for exoplanets around M dwarfs. HD 147379…

Detecting Proxima b's atmosphere with JWST targeting CO2 at 15 micron using a high-pass spectral filtering technique

I. Snellen, J. -M. Desert, L. Waters +15

Exoplanet Proxima b will be an important laboratory for the search for extraterrestrial life for the decades ahead. Here we discuss the prospects of detecting carbon dioxide at 15…

A differential Least Squares Deconvolution method for high precision spectroscopy of stars and exoplanets I. Application to obliquity measurements of HARPS observations of HD189733b

John B. P. Strachan, Guillem Anglada-Escude

High precision measurements of stellar spectroscopic line profiles and their changes over time contain very valuable information about the physics of the stellar photosphere (stell…

Astrometric Constraints on the Masses of Long-Period Gas Giant Planets in the TRAPPIST-1 Planetary System

Alan P. Boss, Alycia J. Weinberger, Sandra A. Keiser +3

Transit photometry of the M8V dwarf star TRAPPIST-1 (2MASS J23062928-0502285) has revealed the presence of at least seven planets with masses and radii similar to that of Earth orb…

Color difference makes a difference: four planet candidates around tau Ceti

Fabo Feng, Mikko Tuomi, Hugh R. A. Jones +4

The removal of noise typically correlated in time and wavelength is one of the main challenges for using the radial velocity method to detect Earth analogues. We analyze radial vel…

Theia: Faint objects in motion or the new astrometry frontier

The Theia Collaboration, Celine Boehm, Alberto Krone-Martins +96

In the context of the ESA M5 (medium mission) call we proposed a new satellite mission, Theia, based on relative astrometry and extreme precision to study the motion of very faint…
