With an assist from the NEID spectrograph, a team of astronomers have confirmed the existence of exoplanet Gaia-4b—one of the ...

rhymes with fluid) is a high-precision radial-velocity spectrograph that is designed to measure the extremely minute wobble of nearby stars using ...

Using in part the NEID spectrograph mounted on the WIYN 3.5-meter Telescope at the U.S. National Science Foundation Kitt Peak ...

It uses a planet-detecting method called radial velocity, also known as the wobble or Doppler method, which can detect 'wobbles' in a star caused by the gravitational pull of an orbiting planet. Using ...

Scientists using data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission have made a groundbreaking discovery: a massive exoplanet ...

By tracing the corkscrew wobble of two stars as they move through the sky, the Gaia space mission has discovered one new giant "planet," plus a new brown dwarf.

That's in contrast to the transit method, which detects planets as ... Using ground-based spectroscopic data and the radial velocity technique to investigate these stars, we confirmed our first ...

Data from the Gaia spacecraft shows that even unassuming stars can host monumental companions like massive planets.

Peter Plavchan, of George Mason University, will present his lecture at 11 a.m. EDT on Mar. 1, 2018, in the Greenewalt Lecture Hall as part of DTM's Weekly Seminar Series. Coffee, tea, and a light ...

The ESA’s Gaia mission mapped the positions and velocities of stars with extreme precision by measuring about one billion ...
