Silicon and Strontium abundances of very metal-poor stars determined from near-infrared spectra

Wako Aoki, Timothy C. Beers, Satoshi Honda +19

Silicon and Strontium are key elements to explore the nucleosynthesis and chemical evolution of the Galaxy by measurements of very metal-poor stars. There are, however, only a few…

High contrast imaging wavefront sensor referencing from coronagraphic images

Nour Skaf, Olivier Guyon, Anthony Boccaletti +11

A key challenge of high contrast imaging (HCI) is to differentiate a speckle from an exoplanet signal. The sources of speckles are a combination of atmospheric residuals and aberra…

On-sky validation of image-based adaptive optics wavefront sensor referencing

Nour Skaf, Olivier Guyon, Eric Gendron +14

Differentiating between an exoplanet signal and residual speckle noise is a key challenge in high-contrast imaging. Speckles are due to a combination of fast, slow and static wavef…

Zodiacal Exoplanets in Time (ZEIT) XII: A Directly-Imaged Planetary-Mass Companion to a Young Taurus M Dwarf Star

E. Gaidos, T. Hirano, A. L. Kraus +21

We report the discovery of a resolved (0".9) substellar companion to a member of the 1-5 Myr Taurus star-forming region. The host star (2M0437) is a single mid-M type ($T_{eff}\app…

High contrast imaging at the photon noise limit with self-calibrating WFS/C systems

Olivier Guyon, Barnaby Norris, Marc-Antoine Martinod +20

High contrast imaging (HCI) systems rely on active wavefront control (WFC) to deliver deep raw contrast in the focal plane, and on calibration techniques to further enhance contras…

TOI-2285b: A 1.7 Earth-radius Planet Near the Habitable Zone around a Nearby M Dwarf

Akihiko Fukui, Tadahiro Kimura, Teruyuki Hirano +60

We report the discovery of TOI-2285b, a sub-Neptune-sized planet transiting a nearby (42 pc) M dwarf with a period of 27.3 days. We identified the transit signal from the Transitin…
