AF Lep b: The lowest-mass planet detected by coupling astrometric and direct imaging data

D Mesa, R Gratton, P Kervella, M Bonavita… - Astronomy & …, 2023 - aanda.org
Aims. Using the direct-imaging technique, we searched for low-mass companions around
the star AF Lep, which presents a significant proper-motion anomaly (PMa) signal obtained …

Directly tracing the vertical stratification of molecules in protoplanetary disks

T Paneque-Carreño, A Miotello… - Astronomy & …, 2023 - aanda.org
Context. The specific location from where molecules emit in a protoplanetary disk depends
on the system properties. Therefore, directly constraining the emitting regions radially …

Astrometric accelerations as dynamical beacons: a giant planet imaged inside the debris disk of the young star AF Lep

K Franson, BP Bowler, Y Zhou, TD Pearce… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the direct-imaging discovery of a giant planet orbiting the young star AF Lep, a
1.2 M⊙ member of the 24±3 Myr β Pic moving group. AF Lep was observed as part of our …

Spiral arms and a massive dust disk with non-Keplerian kinematics: possible evidence for gravitational instability in the disk of Elias 2–27

T Paneque-Carreño, LM Pérez, M Benisty… - The Astrophysical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
To determine the origin of the spiral structure observed in the dust continuum emission of
Elias 2–27 we analyze multiwavelength continuum ALMA data with a resolution of∼ 0 farcs …

Planet populations inferred from debris discs-Insights from 178 debris systems in the ISPY, LEECH, and LIStEN planet-hunting surveys

TD Pearce, R Launhardt, R Ostermann… - Astronomy & …, 2022 - aanda.org
We know little about the outermost exoplanets in planetary systems because our detection
methods are insensitive to moderate-mass planets on wide orbits. However, debris discs …

Vertically extended and asymmetric CN emission in the Elias 2-27 protoplanetary disk

T Paneque-Carreño, A Miotello… - Astronomy & …, 2022 - aanda.org
Context. Cyanide (CN) emission is expected to originate in the upper layers of
protoplanetary disks, tracing UV-irradiated regions. This hypothesis, however, has been …

ISPY: NACO Imaging Survey for Planets around Young stars-The demographics of forming planets embedded in protoplanetary disks

G Cugno, TD Pearce, R Launhardt, MJ Bonse… - Astronomy & …, 2023 - aanda.org
Context. Planet formation is a frequent process, but little observational constraints exist
about the mechanisms involved, especially for giant planets at large separation. The NaCo …

Radial velocity survey for planets around young stars (RVSPY)-A transiting warm super-Jovian planet around HD 114082, a young star with a debris disk

OV Zakhozhay, R Launhardt, T Trifonov… - Astronomy & …, 2022 - aanda.org
Aims. We aim to detect planetary companions to young stars with debris disks via the radial
velocity method. Methods. We observed HD 114082 during April 2018–August 2022 as one …

Insights into the planetary dynamics of HD 206893 with ALMA

S Marino, A Zurlo, V Faramaz, J Milli… - Monthly Notices of …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
Radial substructure in the form of rings and gaps has been shown to be ubiquitous among
protoplanetary discs. This could be the case in exo-Kuiper belts as well, and evidence for …

Disk Evolution Study Through Imaging of Nearby Young Stars (DESTINYS): Diverse outcomes of binary–disk interactions

Y Zhang, C Ginski, J Huang, A Zurlo, H Beust… - Astronomy & …, 2023 - aanda.org
Context. Circumstellar disks play an essential role in the outcomes of planet formation. Disks
do not evolve in isolation, as about half of solar-type stars were born in binary or multiple …
