Descripción
Context. Since 1998, a planet-search around main sequence stars within
50 pc in the southern hemisphere has been underway with the CORALIE
spectrograph at La Silla Observatory. Aims: With an observing
time span of more than 20 yr, the CORALIE survey is able to detect
long-term trends in data with masses and separations large enough to
select ideal targets for direct imaging. Detecting these giant companion
candidates will allow us to start bridging the gap between
radial-velocity-detected exoplanets and directly imaged planets and
brown dwarfs. Methods: Long-term precise Doppler measurements
with the CORALIE spectrograph reveal radial-velocity signatures of
massive planetary companions and brown dwarfs on long-period orbits. Results: In this paper, we report the discovery of new companions
orbiting HD 181234, HD 13724, HD 25015, HD 92987 and HD 50499. We also
report updated orbital parameters for HD 50499b, HD 92788b and HD
98649b. In addition, we confirm the recent detection of HD 92788c. The
newly reported companions span a period range of 15.6-40.4 yr and a mass
domain of 2.93-26.77 MJup, the latter of which straddles the
nominal boundary between planets and brown dwarfs. Conclusions:
We report the detection of five new companions and updated parameters of
four known extrasolar planets. We identify at least some of these
companions to be promising candidates for imaging and further
characterisation.
