A Search for Planets with SALT
Monika Adam\'ow, Andrzej Niedzielski
TL;DR
This paper discusses plans to expand the Pennsylvania-Torun Planets Search to the southern hemisphere using SALT, highlighting potential collaboration with HET and presenting a sample of evolved stars for future planet detection.
Contribution
It introduces the extension of an existing planet search program to SALT, including a sample of evolved stars for upcoming observations.
Findings
Sample of ~1000 evolved stars identified for future SALT planet search
Potential for collaboration with HET in overlapping sky regions
Preparation for extended planet detection in the southern hemisphere
Abstract
As the SALT High Resolution Spectrograph completion is nearing we plan to extend the Pennsylvania-Torun Planets Search (PTPS) with HET to the southern hemisphere. Due to overlap of the skies available for both HET and SALT in the declination range (+10, -10) deg some cooperation and immediate follow up is possible. Here we present, as an example, a 1000 star sample of evolved stars for the future SALT Planet Search.
