The Beta Pictoris system is characterized by a dusty debris disk, in addition to the presence of two already known planets. This makes it a particularly interesting case for studying […]

Deep High-resolution L Band Spectroscopy In The B Pictoris Planetary System
The beta Pictoris system, with its two directly imaged planets beta Pic b and beta Pic c and its well characterised debris disk, is a prime target for detailed characterisation […]

Detection And Characterisation Of Giant Planets With Gaia Astrometry
Astrometric observations with Gaia are expected to play a valuable role in future exoplanet surveys. With current data from Gaia’s third data release (DR3), we are sensitive to periods from […]

Dynamics Of The Beta Pictoris Planetary System And Its Falling Evaporating Bodies
For decades, the spectral variations of Beta Pictoris have been modelled as the result of the evaporation of exocomets close to the star, termed falling evaporating bodies (FEBs).
