Abstract
We report the detection of three new massive companions to main- sequence stars based on precise radial velocities obtained with the SOPHIE spec- trograph, as part of an ongoing programme to search for extrasolar planets. The minimum masses of the detected companions range from around 16 Mjup to around 60 Mjup, and therefore lie at both sides of the boundary between massive extrasolar planets and brown dwarves.
