A low-mass companion to the two-solar mass star HIP65426 has recently been detected by SPHERE at around 100 au from its host. Explaining the presence of super-Jovian planets at large separations, as revealed by direct imaging, is currently an open question. We want to derive statistical constraints on the mass and initial entropy of HIP65426b and to explore possible formation pathways of directly imaged objects within the core-accretion paradigm, focusing on HIP65426b. Constraints on the planets mass and post-formation entropy are derived from its age and luminosity combined with cooling models. For the first time, the results of population synthesis are also used to inform the results. Then, a formation model that includes N-body dynamics with several embryos per disc is used to study possible formation histories and the properties of possible additional companions. Finally, the outcomes of two- and three-planet scattering in the post-disc phase are analysed, taking tides into account. The mass of HIP65426b is found to be Mp = 9.9 +1.1 -1.8 MJ using the hot population and Mp = 10.9 +1.4 -2.0 MJ with the cold-nominal population. Core formation at small separations from the star followed by outward scattering and runaway accretion at a few hundred AU succeeds in reproducing the mass and separation of HIP65426b. Alternatively, systems having two or more giant planets close enough to be on an unstable orbit at disc dispersal are likely to end up with one planet on a wide HIP65426b-like orbit with a relatively high eccentricity (>~ 0.5). If this scattering scenario explains its formation, HIP65426b is predicted to have a high eccentricity and to be accompanied by one or several roughly Jovian-mass planets at smaller semi-major axes, which also could have a high eccentricity. This could be tested by further direct-imaging as well as radial-velocity observations.

HIP 65426 b is a recently discovered exoplanet imaged during the course of the SPHERE-SHINE survey. Here we present new $L$ and $M$ observations of the planet from the NACO instrument at the VLT from the NACO-ISPY survey, as well as a new $Y-H$ spect
rum and $K$-band photometry from SPHERE-SHINE. Using these data, we confirm the nature of the companion as a warm, dusty planet with a mid-L spectral type. From comparison of its SED with the BT-Settl atmospheric models, we derive a best-fit effective temperature of $T_{text{eff}}=1618pm7$ K, surface gravity $log g=3.78^{+0.04}_{-0.03}$ and radius $R=1.17pm0.04$ $R_{text{J}}$ (statistical uncertainties only). Using the DUSTY and COND isochrones we estimate a mass of $8pm1$ $M_{text{J}}$. Combining the astrometric measurements from our new datasets and from the literature, we show the first indications of orbital motion of the companion (2.6$sigma$ significance) and derive preliminary orbital constraints. We find a highly inclined orbit ($i=107^{+13}_{-10}$ deg) with an orbital period of $800^{+1200}_{-400}$ yr. We also report SPHERE sparse aperture masking observations that investigate the possibility that HIP 65426 b was scattered onto its current orbit by an additional companion at a smaller orbital separation. From this data we rule out the presence of brown dwarf companions with masses greater than 16 $M_{text{J}}$ at separations larger than 3 AU, significantly narrowing the parameter space for such a companion.
Directly imaged planets and substellar companions are key targets for the characterization of self-luminous atmospheres. Their photometric appearance at 4-5 $mu$m is sensitive to the chemical composition and cloud content of their atmosphere. We aim
at systematically characterizing the atmospheres of directly imaged low-mass companions at 4-5 $mu$m. We want to homogeneously process the data and compile a photometric library at thermal wavelengths of these mostly young, low-gravity objects. In this way, we want to find trends related to their spectral type and surface gravity by comparing with isolated brown dwarfs and predictions from atmospheric models. We have used the high-resolution, high-contrast capabilities of NACO at the VLT to directly image the companions of HIP 65426, PZ Tel, and HD 206893 in the NB4.05 and/or $M$ filters. For the same targets, and additionally $beta$ Pic, we have also analyzed six archival VLT/NACO datasets which were taken with the NB3.74, $L$, NB4.05, and $M$ filters. The $L$-NB4.05 and $L$-$M$ colors of the studied sample are all red while the NB4.05-$M$ color is blue for $beta$ Pic b, gray for PZ Tel B, and red for HIP 65426 b and HD 206893 B (although typically with low significance). The absolute NB4.05 and $M$ fluxes of our sample are all larger than those of field dwarfs with similar spectral types. Finally, the surface gravity of $beta$ Pic b has been constrained to $log{g} = 4.17_{-0.13}^{+0.10}$ dex from its photometry and dynamical mass. A red color at 3-4 $mu$m and a blue color at 4-5 $mu$m might be (partially) caused by H$_2$O and CO absorption, respectively. The red characteristics of $beta$ Pic b, HIP 65426 b, and HD 206893 B at 3-5$mu$m, as well as their higher fluxes in NB4.05 and $M$ compared to field dwarfs, indicate that cloud densities are enhanced close to the photosphere as a result of their low surface gravity.
Medium-resolution integral-field spectrographs (IFS) coupled with adaptive-optics such as Keck/OSIRIS, VLT/MUSE, or SINFONI are appearing as a new avenue for enhancing the detection and characterization capabilities of young, gas giant exoplanets at
large heliocentric distances (>5 au). We analyzed K-band VLT/SINFONI medium-resolution (R_lambda~5577) observations of the young giant exoplanet HIP 65426 b. Our dedicated IFS data analysis toolkit (TExTRIS) optimized the cube building, star registration, and allowed for the extraction of the planet spectrum. A Bayesian inference with the nested sampling algorithm coupled with the self-consistent forward atmospheric models BT-SETTL15 and Exo-REM using the ForMoSA tool yields Teff=1560 +/- 100K, log(g)<4.40dex, [M/H]=0.05 +/- 0.22dex, and an upper limit on the C/O ratio (<0.55). The object is also re-detected with the so-called molecular mapping technique. The technique yields consistent atmospheric parameters, but the loss of the planet pseudo-continuum in the process degrades or modifies the constraints on these parameters. The solar to sub-solar C/O ratio suggests an enrichment by solids at formation if the planet was formed beyond the water snowline (>20 au) by core-accretion. However, a formation by gravitational instability can not be ruled out. The metallicity is compatible with the bulk enrichment of massive Jovian planets from the Bern planet population models. Finally, we measure a radial velocity of 26 +/- 15km/s compatible with our revised measurement on the star. This is the fourth imaged exoplanet for which a radial velocity can be evaluated, illustrating the potential of such observations for assessing the coevolution of imaged systems belonging to star forming regions, such as HIP 65426.
Directly imaged planets are self-luminous companions of pre-main sequence and young main sequence stars. They reside in wider orbits ($sim10mathrm{s}-1000mathrm{s}$~AU) and generally are more massive compared to the close-in ($lesssim 10$~AU) planets
. Determining the host star properties of these outstretched planetary systems is important to understand and discern various planet formation and evolution scenarios. We present the stellar parameters and metallicity ([Fe/H]) for a subsample of 18 stars known to host planets discovered by the direct imaging technique. We retrieved the high-resolution spectra for these stars from public archives and used the synthetic spectral fitting technique and Bayesian analysis to determine the stellar properties in a uniform and consistent way. For eight sources, the metallicities are reported for the first time, while the results are consistent with the previous estimates for the other sources. Our analysis shows that metallicities of stars hosting directly imaged planets are close to solar with a mean [Fe/H] = $-0.04pm0.27$~dex. The large scatter in metallicity suggests that a metal-rich environment may not be necessary to form massive planets at large orbital distances. We also find that the planet mass-host star metallicity relation for the directly imaged massive planets in wide-orbits is very similar to that found for the well studied population of short period ($lesssim 1$~yr) super-Jupiters and brown-dwarfs around main-sequence stars.
We aim to interpret future photometric and spectral measurements from these instruments, in terms of physical parameters of the planets, with an atmospheric model using a minimal number of assumptions and parameters. We developed Exoplanet Radiativ
e-convective Equilibrium Model (Exo-REM) to analyze the photometric and spectro- scopic data of directly imaged planets. The input parameters are a planets surface gravity (g), effective temperature (Teff ), and elemental composition. The model predicts the equilibrium temperature profile and mixing ratio profiles of the most important gases. Opacity sources include the H2-He collision-induced absorption and molecular lines from eight compounds (including CH4 updated with the Exomol line list). Absorption by iron and silicate cloud particles is added above the expected condensation levels with a fixed scale height and a given optical depth at some reference wavelength. Scattering was not included at this stage. We applied Exo-REM to photometric and spectral observations of the planet beta Pictoris b obtained in a series of near-IR filters. We derived Teff = 1550 +- 150 K, log(g) = 3.5 +- 1, and radius R = 1.76 +- 0.24 RJup (2-{sigma} error bars from photometric measurements). These values are comparable to those found in the literature, although with more conservative error bars, consistent with the model accuracy. We were able to reproduce, within error bars, the J- and H-band spectra of beta Pictoris b. We finally investigated the precision to which the above parameter
