EarthFinder Probe Mission Concept Study: Characterizing nearby stellar exoplanet systems with Earth-mass analogs for future direct imaging
Peter Plavchan, Gautam Vasisht, Chas Beichman +52
EarthFinder is a NASA Astrophysics Probe mission concept selected for study as input to the 2020 Astrophysics National Academies Decadal Survey. The EarthFinder concept is based on…
Characterization of Single-Mode Fiber Coupling at the Large Binocular Telescope
Andrew J. Bechter, Jonathan Crass, Jonathan Tesch +2
Optimizing on-sky single-mode fiber (SMF) injection is an essential part of developing precise Doppler spectrometers and new astrophotonics technologies. We installed and tested a…
Assessing the Suitability of H4RG Near Infrared Detectors for Precise Doppler Radial Velocity Measurements
Eric B. Bechter, Andrew J. Bechter, Justin R. Crepp +1
At wavelengths longwards of the sensitivity of silicon, hybrid structured mercury-cadmium-telluride (HgCdTe) detectors show promise to enable extremely precise radial velocity (RV)…
The need for single-mode fiber-fed spectrographs
Jonathan Crass, Andrew Bechter, Eric Bechter +12
Precise Doppler radial-velocity (RV) instruments will continue to play an essential role in advancing our holistic understanding of exoplanetary systems. The combination of orbital…
A Radial Velocity Error Budget for Single-mode Fiber Doppler Spectrographs
Andrew J. Bechter, Eric B. Bechter Justin R. Crepp, David King +1
Single-mode fiber (SMF) spectrographs fed with adaptive optics (AO) offer a unique path for achieving extremely precise radial velocity (EPRV) measurements. We present a radial vel…
Instrument Simulator and Data Reduction Pipeline for the iLocater Spectrograph
Eric B. Bechter, Andrew J. Bechter, Justin R. Crepp +2
iLocater is a near-infrared (NIR) radial velocity (RV) spectrograph that is being developed for the Large Binocular Telescope in Arizona. Unlike seeing limited designs, iLocater us…
