论文摘要
自2018年10月开始科学运营以来，ESO非常大型望远镜（VLT）的浓缩板光谱仪彻底改变了科学科学。大型VLT镜子的结合以及光谱仪的高分辨率和稳定性使得能够检测小型低质量行星以及对行星大气的详细研究。在本文中，我们简要概述了浓缩咖啡的第一个结果，以及希望达到径向速度精度10 cm/s的最终目标，以检测类似地球的行星所需的径向速度精度。
The ESPRESSO spectrograph at ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT) has, since it began science operations in October 2018, revolutionised exoplanet science. The combination of the large VLT mirrors and the high resolution and stability of the spectrograph is enabling the detection of small, low-mass planets as well as detailed studies of the planets' atmospheres. In this article, we present a brief overview of the first results from ESPRESSO and a hopeful glimpse towards the ultimate goal of reaching the radial velocity precision of 10 cm/s needed to detect an Earth-like planet.
