Investigating three Sirius-like systems with SPHERE
R. Gratton, V. D'Orazi, T. A. Pacheco +61
Sirius-like systems are wide binaries composed of a white dwarf (WD) and a companion of a spectral type earlier than M0. The WD progenitor evolves in isolation, but its wind during…
The SPHERE view of the jet and the envelope of RY Tau
A. Garufi, L. Podio, F. Bacciotti +40
Jets are rarely associated with pre-main-sequence intermediate-mass stars. Optical and near-IR observations of jet-driving sources are often hindered by the presence of a natal env…
SPHERE dynamical and spectroscopic characterization of HD142527B
R. Claudi, A. -L. Maire, D. Mesa +50
We detect the accreting low-mass companion HD142527B at a separation of 73 mas (11.4 au) from the star. No other companions with mass greater than 10 MJ are visible in the field of…
Mapping of shadows cast on a protoplanetary disk by a close binary system
V. D'Orazi, R. Gratton, S. Desidera +47
For a comprehensive understanding of planetary formation and evolution, we need to investigate the environment in which planets form: circumstellar disks. Here we present high-cont…
The gravitational mass of Proxima Centauri measured with SPHERE from a microlensing event
A. Zurlo, R. Gratton, D. Mesa +19
Proxima Centauri, our closest stellar neighbour, is a low-mass M5 dwarf orbiting in a triple system. An Earth-mass planet with an 11 day period has been discovered around this star…
Resolving faint structures in the debris disk around TWA7
J. Olofsson, R. G. van Holstein, A. Boccaletti +51
Debris disks are the intrinsic by-products of the star and planet formation processes. Most likely due to instrumental limitations and their natural faintness, little is known abou…
