A Giant Planet Imaged in the Disk of the Young Star β Pictoris

TL;DR: It is shown that the ~10-million-year-oldβ Pictoris system hosts a massive giant planet, β Pictoris b, located 8 to 15 astronomical units from the star, which confirms that gas giant planets form rapidly within disks and validates the use of disk structures as fingerprints of embedded planets.
Journal ArticleDOI

A probable giant planet imaged in the β Pictoris disk. VLT/NaCo deep L'-band imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, a point-like signal is detected at a projected distance of 8 AU from the star, within the northeastern extension of the dust disk, which suggests a formation process by core accretion or disk instabilities rather than binary-like formation processes.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

NAOS, the first AO system of the VLT: on-sky performance

TL;DR: NAOS-CONICA as mentioned in this paper is the first adaptive optics system installed at the VLT 8m telescopes and it was designed, manufactured and tested by a french Consortium under an ESO contract, to provide compensated images to the high angular resolution IR spectro-imaging camera.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

NAOS-CONICA first on sky results in a variety of observing modes

TL;DR: The Adaptive Optics NIR Instrument NAOS-CONICA has been commissioned at the VLT (UT4) between November 2001 and March 2002 as discussed by the authors, and it has been used for high spatial resolution slit-spectroscopy in the optical and thermal NIR region.
