The ELODIE survey for northern extra-solar planets II: A Jovian planet on a long-period orbit around GJ
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present radial-velocity measurements obtained with the ELODIE and AFOE spectrographs for GJ 777 A (HD 190360), a metal-rich ([Fe/H]= 0.25) nearby (d= 15.9 pc) star in a stellar binary system. A long-period low radial-velocity amplitude variation is detected revealing the presence of a Jovian planetary companion. Some of the orbital elements remain weakly constrained because of the smallness of the signal compared to our instrumental precision. The detailed orbital shape is therefore not well established. We present our best fitted orbital solution: an eccentric (e= 0.48) 10.7–year orbit. The minimum mass of the companion is 1.33 MJup.

The ELODIE survey for northern extra – solar planets ⋆ ⋆ ⋆ I . 6 new extra – solar planet candidates
Precise radial–velocity observations at Haute–Provence Observatory (OHP, France) with the ELODIE echelle spectrograph have been undertaken since 1994. In addition to several discoveries described elsewhere, including and following that of 51 Peg b, they reveal new sub–stellar companions with essentially moderate to long periods. We report here about such companions orbiting five solar–type star...

We discuss our high precision radial velocity results of a sample of 90 M dwarfs observed with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope and the Harlan J. Smith 2.7 m Telescope at McDonald Observatory, as well as the ESO VLT and the Keck I telescopes, within the context of the overall frequency of Jupiter-mass planetary companions to main sequence stars. None of the stars in our sample show variability indica...
متن کاملA New Planet around an M Dwarf: Revealing a Correlation between Exoplanets and Stellar Mass
We report precise Doppler measurements of GJ 317 (M3.5 V) that reveal the presence of a planet with a minimum mass MP sin i 1⁄4 1:2 MJup in an eccentric, 692.9 day orbit. GJ 317 is only the third M dwarf with a Doppler-detected Jovian planet. The residuals to a single-Keplerian fit show evidence of a possible second orbital companion. The inclusion of a second Jupiter-mass planet (P 2700 days,M...
متن کاملThe CORALIE survey for southern extra-solar planets
Doppler measurements from the high-resolution CORALIE spectrometer of the stars HD 75289 and HD 130322 reveal 2 new extra-solar giant planets. They are the second and third planetary candidates discovered with CORALIE in less than 1 year, since its installation on the 1.2-m Euler Swiss telescope at La Silla. The minimum mass of the planet around HD 75289 (m2 sin i = 0.42 MJup) is the lightest f...

A new extra-solar planet has been discovered in the context of the CORALIE survey at La Silla Observatory. This new planetary candidate orbits the star HD 192263 in an almost circular orbit at a distance of 0.15 AU, producing a 24.13 day periodic radial-velocity variation, with a semi-amplitude of 62 m s ?1. The derived minimum mass of the planet is 0.73 M Jup .
