Evaluation of a College Freshman Diversity Research Program
Sarah Garner, Michael J. Tremmel, Sarah J. Schmidt +2
Since 2005, the Pre-Major in Astronomy Program (Pre-MAP) at the University of Washington (UW) Department of Astronomy has made a concentrated effort to recruit and retain underrepr…
Direct Imaging Detection of Methane in the Atmosphere of GJ 504 b
M. Janson, T. Brandt, M. Kuzuhara +54
Most exoplanets detected by direct imaging so far have been characterized by relatively hot (> ~1000 K) and cloudy atmospheres. A surprising feature in some of their atmospheres ha…
A Discovery of a Candidate Companion to a Transiting System KOI-94: A Direct Imaging Study for a Possibility of a False Positive
Yasuhiro H. Takahashi, Norio Narita, Teruyuki Hirano +49
We report a discovery of a companion candidate around one of {\it Kepler} Objects of Interest (KOIs), KOI-94, and results of our quantitative investigation of the possibility that…
Characterization of the gaseous companion κ Andromedae b: New Keck and LBTI high-contrast observations
M. Bonnefoy, T. Currie, G. -D. Marleau +64
We previously reported the direct detection of a low mass companion at a projected separation of 55+-2 AU around the B9 type star κ Andromedae. The properties of the system (mass r…
Direct Imaging of a Cold Jovian Exoplanet in Orbit around the Sun-like Star GJ 504
M. Kuzuhara, M. Tamura, T. Kudo +54
Several exoplanets have recently been imaged at wide separations of >10 AU from their parent stars. These span a limited range of ages (<50 Myr) and atmospheric properties, with te…
The SDSS-III APOGEE Radial Velocity Survey of M dwarfs I: Description of Survey and Science Goals
R. Deshpande, C. H. Blake, C. F. Bender +28
We are carrying out a large ancillary program with the SDSS-III, using the fiber-fed multi-object NIR APOGEE spectrograph, to obtain high-resolution H-band spectra of more than 120…
