A survey of young, nearby, and dusty stars conducted to understand the formation of wide-orbit giant planets

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: Context. Over the past decade, direct imaging has confirmed the existence of substellar companions on wide orbits from their parent stars. To understand the formation and evolution mechanisms of these companions, their individual as well as the full population properties must be characterized.
