Young massive clusters (YMCs) are dense aggregates of young stars that form the
fundamental building blocks of galaxies. Several examples exist in the Milky Way Galaxy …

The discovery of only a handful of exoplanets required establishing a correlation between
giant planet occurrence and metallicity of their host stars. More than 20 years have already …

The CARMENES radial velocity (RV) survey is observing 324 M dwarfs to search for any
orbiting planets. In this paper, we present the survey sample by publishing one CARMENES …

We report the distribution of planets as a function of planet radius, orbital period, and stellar
effective temperature for orbital periods less than 50 days around solar-type (GK) stars …

Context. The nearest stars provide a fundamental constraint for our understanding of stellar
physics and the Galaxy. The nearby sample serves as an anchor where all objects can be …

The questions of how planets form and how common Earth-like planets are can be
addressed by measuring the distribution of exoplanet masses and orbital periods. We report …

Context. With the high number of extrasolar planets discovered by now, it has become
possible to use the properties of this planetary population to constrain theoretical formation …

Aims. We report the discovery of very shallow (), periodic dips in the light curve of an active
G9V star observed by the CoRoT satellite, which we interpret as caused by a transiting …

We report on an intensive observational campaign carried out with HARPS at the 3.6 m
telescope at La Silla on the star CoRoT-7. Additional simultaneous photometric …

Context. Stellar noise produced by oscillations, granulation phenomena (granulation,
mesogranulation, and supergranulation), and activity affects radial velocity measurements …
