The LEECH Exoplanet Imaging Survey. Further constraints on the planet architecture of the HR 8799 system

A. -L. Maire, A. J. Skemer, P. M. Hinz +36

Context. Astrometric monitoring of directly-imaged exoplanets allows the study of their orbital parameters and system architectures. Because most directly-imaged planets have long…

Gemini Planet Imager Spectroscopy of the HR 8799 planets c and d

Patrick Ingraham, Mark S. Marley, Didier Saumon +43

During the first-light run of the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) we obtained K-band spectra of exoplanets HR 8799 c and d. Analysis of the spectra indicates that planet d may be warmer…

The First H-band Spectrum of the Massive Gas Giant Planet beta Pictoris b with the Gemini Planet Imager

Jeffrey Chilcote, Travis Barman, Michael P. Fitzgerald +43

Using the recently installed Gemini Planet Imager (GPI), we have taken the first H-band spectrum of the planetary companion to the nearby young star beta Pictoris. GPI is designed…

GPI PSF subtraction with TLOCI: the next evolution in exoplanet/disk high-contrast imaging

Christian Marois, Carlos Correia, Raphael Galicher +4

To directly image exoplanets and faint circumstellar disks, the noisy stellar halo must be suppressed to a high level. To achieve this feat, the angular differential imaging observ…
