High Precision Radial Velocity Measurements in the Infrared A First Assessment of the RV Stability of CRIRES
High precision radial velocity (RV) measurements in the near infrared are on high demand, especially in the context of exoplanet search campaigns shifting their interest to late type stars in order to detect planets with ever lower mass or targeting embedded pre-main-sequence objects. ESO is offering a new spectrograph at the VLT – CRIRES – designed for high resolution near-infrared spectroscop...
متن کاملOn the Use of Absorption Cells as a Wavelength Reference for Precision Radial Velocity Measurements in the near Infrared
Considerable interest is now focused on the detection of terrestrial mass planets around M dwarfs, and radial velocity surveys with high-resolution spectrographs in the near infrared are expected to be able to discover such planets. We explore the possibility of using commercially available molecular absorption gas cells as a wavelength reference standard for high-resolution fiber-fed spectrogr...
متن کاملCross - correlation radial velocity measurements ofchromospherically
We present observational radial velocity curves for 12 chromospherically active binary systems and individual measurements for a further 5 systems. These binaries are Six of our target binaries do not agree with published ephemerides or orbital parameters. We also present a rigourous derivation of the resolution limit for binary star cross-correlation radial velocities. Using synthetic spectral...
متن کاملThe Radial Velocity Precision of Fiber-fed Spectrographs
We have measured the radial velocities of five 51 Peg-type stars and one star known to be constant in velocity. Our measurements, on 20 Å centered at 3947 Å, were conventional using Th/Ar comparison spectra taken every 20 or 40 minutes between the stellar exposures. Existing IRAF routines were used for the reduction. We find σRV ≤ 20 m s−1, provided 4 measurements (out of 72) with residuals > 5...
متن کاملAn Inexpensive Field-widened Monolithic Michelson Interferometer for Precision Radial Velocity Measurements
We have constructed a thermally compensated field-widened monolithic Michelson interferometer that can be used with a medium-resolution spectrograph to measure precise Doppler radial velocities of stars. Our prototype monolithic fixed-delay interferometer is constructed with off-the-shelf components and assembled using a hydrolysis bonding technique. We installed and tested this interferometer ...
