Fundamental physics with ESPRESSO: Precise limit on variations in the fine-structure constant towards the bright quasar HE 05154414

Michael T. Murphy, Paolo Molaro, Ana C. O. Leite +40

The strong intervening absorption system at redshift 1.15 towards the very bright quasar HE 05154414 is the most studied absorber for measuring possible cosmological variations…

The Rossiter-McLaughlin effect Revolutions: An ultra-short period planet and a warm mini-Neptune on perpendicular orbits

V. Bourrier, C. Lovis, M. Cretignier +34

Comparisons of the alignment of exoplanets with a common host star can be used to distinguish among concurrent evolution scenarios. However, multi-planet systems usually host mini-…

LBV phenomenon and binarity: The environment of HR Car

A. Mehner, S. Janssens, C. Agliozzo +7

Luminous blue variable stars (LBVs) are of great interest in massive-star evolution as they experience very high mass-loss episodes within short periods of time. HR Car is a famous…

The contribution by luminous blue variable stars to the dust content of the Magellanic Clouds

C. Agliozzo, N. Phillips, A. Mehner +6

(Shortened) Luminous blue variable stars (LBVs) form dust as a result of episodic, violent mass loss. To investigate their contribution as dust producers in the Magellanic Clouds,…

HD22496b: the first ESPRESSO standalone planet discovery

J. Lillo-Box, J. P. Faria, A. Suárez Mascareño +32

The ESPRESSO spectrograph is a new powerful tool to detect and characterize extrasolar planets. Its design allows unprecedented radial velocity precision (down to a few tens of cm/…

Warm terrestrial planet with half the mass of Venus transiting a nearby star

Olivier D. S. Demangeon, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, Y. Alibert +42

The advent of a new generation of radial velocity instruments has allowed us to break the one Earth-mass barrier. We report a new milestone in this context with the detection of th…
