GJ 3998 RVs, S and Halpha indexes
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
M dwarfs are considered ideal targets for Doppler radial velocity searches.
Description
Nonetheless, the statistics of frequency of low-mass planets hosted by low mass stars remains poorly constrained. Our M-dwarf radial velocity monitoring with HARPS-N can provide a major contribution to the widening of the current statistics through the in-depth analysis of accurate radial velocity observations in a narrow range of spectral sub-types (79 stars, between dM0 to dM3).
Spectral accuracy will enable us to reach the precision needed to detect small planets with a few earth masses. Our survey will bring a contribute to the surveys devoted to the search for planets around M-dwarfs, mainly focused on the M-dwarf population of the northern hemisphere, for which we will provide an estimate of the planet occurence. We present here a long duration radial velocity monitoring of the M1 dwarf star GJ 3998 with HARPS-N to identify periodic signals in the data.

Almost simultaneous photometric observations were carried out within the APACHE and EXORAP programs to characterize the stellar activity and to distinguish from the periodic signals those due to activity and to the presence of planetary companions. The radial velocities have a dispersion in excess of their internal errors due to at least four superimposed signals, with periods of 30.7, 13.7, 42.5 and 2.65-days. The analysis of spectral indices based on Ca II H & K and H{alpha} lines demonstrates that the periods of 30.7 and 42.5-days are due to chromospheric inhomogeneities modulated by stellar rotation and differential rotation.
The shorter periods of 13.74+/-0.02d and 2.6498+/-0.0008d are well explained with the presence of two planets, with minimum masses of 6.26+/-0.79M_Earth_ and 2.47+/-0.27M_Earth_ and distances of 0.089AU and 0.029AU from the host, respectively.
