We report on the confirmation and mass determination of a transiting planet orbiting the old and inactive G7 dwarf star HD 219666 (M⋆ = 0.92 ± 0.03 M⊙, R⋆ = 1...
HD 22496 b: The first ESPRESSO stand-alone planet discovery
Context. The ESPRESSO spectrograph is a new powerful tool developed to detect and characterize extrasolar planets. Its design allows an unprecedented radial...
HD 23472: a multi-planetary system with three super-Earths and two potential super-Mercuries
Context. Comparing the properties of planets orbiting the same host star, and thus formed from the same accretion disc, helps in constraining theories of...
HD 50844: a new look at δ Scuti stars from CoRoT space photometry
Context: Aims: This work presents the results obtained by CoRoT on HD 50844, the only δ Sct star observed in the CoRoT initial run (57.6 d). The aim of these...
HD 51106 and HD 50747: an ellipsoidal binary and a triple system observed with CoRoT
Context: We present an analysis of the observations of HD 51106 and HD 50747 by the satellite CoRoT, obtained during its initial run, and of the spectroscopic...
HD 89345: a bright oscillating star hosting a transiting warm Saturn-sized planet observed by K2
We report the discovery and characterization of HD 89345b (K2-234b; EPIC 248777106b), a Saturn-sized planet orbiting a slightly evolved star. HD 89345 is a...
HD152843 b & c: the masses and orbital periods of a sub-Neptune and a superpuff Neptune
We present the characterization of the two transiting planets around HD 152843 (TOI 2319, TIC 349488688) using an intensive campaign of HARPS-N radial...
He 2-25, Th 2-B, 19W32: further links between bipolar planetary nebulae and symbiotic stars?
Optical spectroscopy of the highly collimated bipolar nebulae He 2-25, Th 2-B and 19W32 is presented. He 2-25 and Th 2-B are found to have very dense (N_e~10^7...
He I 5876 å line in the study of chromospheric activity in F-type MS stars
We have measured the He I D3 line 5876 Å, in 32 F-type young open cluster stars and in 4 field stars. Combining our results with previous observations of D3 we...
