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…

SPHERE RefPlanets: Search for epsilon Eridani b and warm dust

C. Tschudi, H. M. Schmid, M. Nowak +35

We carried out very deep VLT/SPHERE imaging polarimetry of the nearby system Eps Eri based on 38.5 hours of integration time with a 600 - 900 nm broadband filter to search for pola…

An extended scattered light disk around AT Pyx -- Possible planet formation in a cometary globule

C. Ginski, R. Gratton, A. Bohn +35

To understand how the multitude of planetary systems that have been discovered come to be, we need to study systems at different evolutionary stages, with different central stars 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) -- II. Observations, Data reduction and analysis Detection performances and early-results

M. Langlois, R. Gratton, A. -M. Lagrange +118

Over the past decades, direct imaging has confirmed the existence of substellar companions (exoplanets or brown dwarfs) on wide orbits (>10 au) from their host stars. To understand…
