The most promising ways to confirm Gaia astrometric planetary candidates and obtain follow-up data
Star system: L 88-59 | Distance from the Sun: 31.7 light years
Astrometric planet candidates around white dwarfs can be confirmed and characterized by combining astrometric data with spectroscopic and photometric data. Radial velocity and infrared photometry can be used to probe the mass of the objects producing some of the astrometric signals, and rule out parts of the brown dwarf and planet mass parameter space.
