Congratulations. One question: as I recall HD80606b might have been detected at periastrum with the VLA. Was this detection spurious ? Cheers, Luis Hi Greg,

this is really a beautiful result. Congratulations. One question: as I recall HD80606b might have been detected at periastrum with the VLA. Was this detection spurious ?
