ADC_Keywords: Stars, double and multiple ; Planets ; Radial velocities Keywords: planets and satellites: detection - planets and satellites: individual: β Pic - techniques: radial velocities Abstract: The β Pictoris system with its debris disk and a massive giant planet orbiting at ~=9AU represents an ideal laboratory for studying giant planet formation and evolution as well as planet-disk interactions. β Pic b can also help in testing brightness-mass relations at young ages. Other planets, yet undetected, may of course be present in the system. We aim at directly constraining the mass of β Pic b and at searching for additional jovian planets on orbits closer than typically 2AU. Description: We used high-precision Harps data collected over eight years since 2003 to measure and analyse β Pic radial velocities.
