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 ...

Using data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission, scientists have found a huge exoplanet and a brown dwarf. This is ...

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

Scientists also discovered a second planet, a brown dwarf orbiting another low-mass star. Gaia-5b orbits the Gaia-5 star, around 134 light-years away from Earth.

It uses a planet-detecting method called radial velocity, also known as the wobble or Doppler method, which can detect ...

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.

Exoplanets have captured the imagination of the public and scientists alike and as the search continues for more, researchers ...

The study of exoplanets has come a long way since the first detection of a planet orbiting a star other than the Sun in 1995. This groundbreaking discovery, achieved through the radial velocity (RV) ...

The Gaia telescope aimed to create an accurate and detailed 3D map of billions of stars in our galaxy. Its findings have flipped astronomers' understanding of the Milky Way on its head and have led to ...
