Exoplanet hunting efforts have revealed the prevalence of exotic worlds with diverse properties, including Earth-sized bodies, which has fueled our endeavor to...
Exoplanet discoveries with the CoRoT space observatory
The CoRoT space observatory is a project which is led by the French space agency CNES and leading space research institutes in Austria, Brazil, Belgium, Germany...
Exoplanet hosts reveal lithium depletion. Results from a homogeneous statistical analysis
Aims: We study the impact of the presence of planets on the lithium abundance of host stars and evaluate the previous claim that planet hosts exhibit lithium...
Exoplanet status report: Observation, characterization and evolution of exoplanets and their host stars
After the discovery of more than 400 planets beyond our Solar System, the characterization of exoplanets as well as their host stars can be considered as one of...
We present the detection and follow-up observations of planetary candidates around low-mass stars observed by the K2 mission. Based on light-curve analysis...
EXOSAT observations of two gamma-ray burst sources
EXOSAT observations of the 19 Nov. 1978 and 25 Mar. 1979b gamma bursters are presented, for the 0.02 - 2.5 keV energy range. No source was detected in either...
Expanded Sample of Small Magellanic Cloud Ultraviolet Dust Extinction Curves: Correlations between the 2175 Å Bump, q <SUB>PAH</SUB>, Ultraviolet Extinction Shape, and N(H I)/A(V)
The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) shows a large variation in ultraviolet (UV) dust extinction curves, ranging from Milky Way (MW) like to significantly steeper...
Expanding on the fundamental metallicity relation in dwarf galaxies with MUSE
The mass-metallicity relation (MZR) represents one of the most important scaling relations in the context of galaxy evolution, comprising a positive correlation...
Expansion Velocities and Core Masses of Bright Planetary Nebulae in the Virgo Cluster
The line-of-sight velocities and [O III] 5007 Å expansion velocities are measured for 11 planetary nebulae (PNs) in the Virgo Cluster core, at 15 Mpc distance...
