Speckle Suppression with the Project 1640 Integral Field Spectrograph
Justin R. Crepp, Laurent Pueyo, Douglas Brenner +15
Project 1640 is a high-contrast imaging instrument recently commissioned at Palomar observatory. A combination of a coronagraph with an integral field spectrograph (IFS), Project 1…
Do we Need to Solve the Exozodi Question? If Yes, How to Best Solve It?
O. Absil, C. Eiroa, J. -C. Augereau +5
When observing an extrasolar planetary system, the most luminous component after the star itself is generally the light scattered and/or thermally emitted by a population of micron…
A New High Contrast Imaging Program at Palomar Observatory
Sasha Hinkley, Ben R. Oppenheimer, Neil Zimmerman +19
We describe a new instrument that forms the core of a long-term high contrast imaging program at the 200-inch Hale Telescope at Palomar Observatory. The primary scientific thrust i…
Establishing Alpha Oph as a Prototype Rotator: Improved Astrometric Orbit
Sasha Hinkley, John D. Monnier, Ben R. Oppenheimer +24
The nearby star Alpha Oph (Ras Alhague) is a rapidly rotating A5IV star spinning at ~89% of its breakup velocity. This system has been imaged extensively by interferometric techniq…
A Spitzer IRS Study of Debris Disks Around Planet-Host Stars
Sarah E. Dodson-Robinson, C. A. Beichman, John M. Carpenter +1
Since giant planets scatter planetesimals within a few tidal radii of their orbits, the locations of existing planetesimal belts indicate regions where giant planet formation faile…
HST and Spitzer Observations of the HD 207129 Debris Ring
John Krist, Karl Stapelfeldt, Geoffrey Bryden +10
A debris ring around the star HD 207129 (G0V; d = 16.0 pc) has been imaged in scattered visible light with the ACS coronagraph on the Hubble Space Telescope and in thermal emission…
