233. Two more exoplanets: Gaia 4b and 5b
Today, NASA's Exoplanet Archive lists almost 6000 confirmed exoplanets. There are only five astrometric discoveries amongst them, with one found from VLT-FORS, and one from radio VLBA. The first Gaia astrometric discovery, HIP 66074, was reported in 2023. Here I describe the two latest discoveries, Gaia 4b and Gaia 5b. And I explain why the numbers discovered with Gaia are still rather small.
