A High-Contrast Search for Variability in HR 8799bc with VLT-SPHERE

no code implementations21 Jan 2021 B. A. Biller, D. Apai, M. Bonnefoy, S. Desidera, R. Gratton, M. Kasper, M. Kenworthy, A. M. Lagrange, C. Lazzoni, D. Mesa, A. Vigan, K. Wagner, J. M. Vos, A. Zurlo

To quantify our sensitivity to variability, we simulate variable lightcurves by inserting and retrieving a suite of simulated planets at similar radii from the star as HR 8799bc, but offset in position angle.

Over time, repetitive observations of the exoplanets at medium resolution ($R=500$) will provide a catalogue of K-band spectra of unprecedented quality, for a number of exoplanets.

A survey of the linear polarization of directly imaged exoplanets and brown dwarf companions with SPHERE-IRDIS. First polarimetric detections revealing disks around DH Tau B and GSC 6214-210 B

The presence of these disks as well as the misalignment of the disk of DH Tau B with the disk around its primary star suggest in situ formation of the companions.

The composition of the MS stars agrees fairly well with expectations from pollution by the AGB progenitors of the WDs: HD2133A has a small enrichment of n-capture elements, which is as expected for pollution by an AGB star with a mass <1. 5 Mo; CD-56 7708A is a previously unrecognized mild Ba-star, which is expected due to pollution by an AGB star with a mass in the range of 1. 5-3. 0 Mo; and HD114174 has a very moderate excess of n-capture elements, which is in agreement with the expectation for a massive AGB star to have a mass >3. 0 Mo.

With our correction method we reach in all filters a total polarimetric accuracy of <0. 1% in the degree of linear polarization and an accuracy of a few degrees in angle of linear polarization.
