Confirming the Magnetic Field Detection at the Surface of Cyg

Alexis Lavail, Arturo López Ariste, Quentin Pilate +3

We present spectropolarimetric observations of Cygni obtained with Neo-Narval at Télescope Bernard Lyot in 2025. We obtained observations across three epochs (2025 Jul, Aug, an…

Spectropolarimetric characterisation of exoplanet host stars in preparation of the mission II. The magnetised wind environment of TOI-1860, DS Tuc A, and HD 63433

S. Bellotti, A. Lavail, D. Evensberget +10

We update the status of the spectropolarimetric campaign dedicated to characterise the magnetic field properties of a sample of known exoplanet-hosting stars included in the curren…

Searching for close-in planets around TWA 7 with SPIRou

J. -F. Donati, P. I. Cristofari, C. Moutou +7

We outline in this paper observations of the young pre-main-sequence low-mass star TWA 7, hosting a debris disk and a distant planet. Using data collected with the near-infrared SP…

VLT/CRIRES+ observations of warm Neptune WASP-107 b: Challenges in detecting molecules with ground-based transmission spectroscopy of cooler and cloudy exoplanets

Linn Boldt-Christmas, Adam D. Rains, Nikolai Piskunov +15

Atmospheres of transiting exoplanets can be studied spectroscopically using space-based or ground-based observations. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses, so there are benefi…

First images of Antares photosphere from spectropolarimetry

Quentin Pilate, Eric Josselin, Agnès Lèbre +3

Antares is the closest red supergiant (RSG) to Earth. The discovery of linear polarization in the atomic lines of the star opens the path to produce direct images of the photospher…

Retrieving day- and nightside atmospheric properties of the ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-2109b. Detection of Fe and CO emission lines and evidence for inefficient heat transport

D. Cont, L. Nortmann, F. Lesjak +32

The ultra-hot Jupiter (UHJ) TOI-2109b marks the lower edge of the equilibrium temperature gap between 3500 K and 4500 K, an unexplored thermal regime that separates KELT-9b, the ho…

Making sense of the spectral line profiles of Betelgeuse and other Red SuperGiants

A. López Ariste, Q. Pilate, A. Lavail +1

Spectropolarimetry of atomic lines in the spectra of Betelgeuse, and other Red SuperGiants (RSG), presents broad line profiles in linear polarization, but narrow profiles in intens…

Comparative study of small-scale magnetic fields on Boo A using optical and near-infrared spectroscopy

A. Hahlin, O. Kochukhov, P. Chaturvedi +12

Magnetic field investigations of Sun-like stars, using Zeeman splitting of non-polarised spectra, in the optical and H-band have found significantly different magnetic field streng…

Characterization of AF Lep b at high spectral resolution with VLT/HiRISE

A. Denis, A. Vigan, J. Costes +41

Since the recent discovery of the directly imaged super-Jovian planet AF Lep b, several studies have been conducted to characterize its atmosphere and constrain its orbital paramet…
