First direct detection of an exoplanet by optical interferometry [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Aims. To date, infrared interferometry at best achieved contrast ratios of a few times 10−4 on bright targets. GRAVITY, with its dual-field mode, is now capable of high contrast observations, enabling the direct observation of exoplanets. We demonstrate the technique on HR 8799, a young planetary system composed of four known giant exoplanets. Methods.

Searching for Rotational X‐Ray Modulation on TIC 277539431

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT TIC 277539431, a fast rotating M7 dwarf, was detected to host the highest latitude flare to date at 81°$$ {81}^{{}^{\circ}} $$. Magnetic activity like stellar flares occurring at high latitude indicate occurrence of coronal loops at these latitudes on fully‐convective M dwarfs. In contrast, sunspots usually occur below 30°$$ {30}^{{}^{\circ}} $

The Bochum Survey of the Southern Galactic Disk: III. Complete Data Release

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Southern Galactic Disk Survey (GDS) monitored a mosaic of 268 fields along a 6°$$ {6}^{{}^{\circ}} $$‐wide stripe in the southern Galactic disk with simultaneous observations in r′$$ {r}^{\prime } $$ and i′$$ {i}^{\prime } $$ (7m≲r′,i′≲18m$$ {7}^{\mathrm{m}}\lesssim {r}^{\prime },{i}^{\prime}\lesssim {18}^{\mathrm{m}} $$) from September ...

The First Evidence of a Host Star Metallicity Cutoff in the Formation of Super-Earth Planets

The Astronomical Journal
Planet formation is expected to be severely limited in disks of low metallicity, owing to both the small solid mass reservoir and the low-opacity accelerating the disk gas dissipation.

Radial Velocities as an Exoplanet Discovery Method

, 2017
The precise radial velocity technique is a cornerstone of exoplanetary astronomy. Astronomers measure Doppler shifts in the star's spectral features, which track the line-of/sight gravitational accelerations of a star caused by the planets orbiting it ...

Effects of Hydrogen on Fe‐S Alloys and Their Implications for the Martian Core

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Meteorites suggest the Martian core comprises iron (Fe) or iron‐nickel (Fe‐Ni) alloy with sulfur (S) identified as the primary light element. The InSight data revealed a larger, less dense Martian core than previously estimated, indicating additional light elements.

Gravity-sensitive Spectral Indices in Ultracool Dwarfs: Investigating Correlations with Metallicity and Planet Occurrence Using SpeX and Fire Observations

The Astronomical Journal
We present a near-infrared spectroscopic analysis (0.9–2.4 μ m) of gravity indices for 56 ultracool dwarfs (M5.5–L0), including exoplanet hosts SPECULOOS-2, SPECULOOS-3, and LHS 3154.
