The SOUL view of IRAS20126+4104. Kinematics and variability of the H jet from a massive protostar
F. Massi, A. Caratti o Garatti, R. Cesaroni +20
We exploit the increased sensitivity of the recently installed AO SOUL at the LBT to obtain new high-spatial-resolution NIR images of the massive young stellar object IRAS20126+410…
The HOSTS survey for exozodiacal dust: Observational results from the complete survey
Steve Ertel, Denis Defrère, Philip M. Hinz +43
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) enables nulling interferometric observations across the N band (8 to 13 um) to suppress a star's bright light and probe for fain…
The HOSTS survey - Exozodiacal dust measurements for 30 stars
S. Ertel, D. Defrère, P. Hinz +40
The HOSTS (Hunt for Observable Signatures of Terrestrial Systems) survey searches for dust near the habitable zones (HZs) around nearby, bright main sequence stars. We use nulling…
The LEECH Exoplanet Imaging Survey: Orbit and Component Masses of the Intermediate Age, Late-Type Binary NO UMa
Joshua E. Schlieder, Andrew J. Skemer, Anne-Lise Maire +21
We present high-resolution Large Binocular Telescope LBTI/LMIRcam images of the spectroscopic and astrometric binary NO UMa obtained as part of the LBTI Exozodi Exoplanet Common Hu…
Hunting for planets in the HL Tau disk
L. Testi, A. Skemer, Th. Henning +10
Recent ALMA images of HL Tau show gaps in the dusty disk that may be caused by planetary bodies. Given the young age of this system, if confirmed, this finding would imply very sho…
The absolute age of the globular cluster M15 using near-infrared adaptive optics images from PISCES/LBT
M. Monelli, V. Testa, G. Bono +26
We present deep near-infrared (NIR) J, Ks photometry of the old, metal-poor Galactic globular cluster M\,15 obtained with images collected with the LUCI1 and PISCES cameras availab…
On the Morphology and Chemical Composition of the HR 4796A Debris Disk
Timothy J. Rodigas, Christopher C. Stark, Alycia Weinberger +17
[abridged] We present resolved images of the HR 4796A debris disk using the Magellan adaptive optics system paired with Clio-2 and VisAO. We detect the disk at 0.77 \microns, 0.91…
Mid-Infrared High-Contrast Imaging of HD 114174 B : An Apparent Age Discrepancy in a "Sirius-Like" Binary System
Christopher T. Matthews, Justin R. Crepp, Andrew Skemer +9
We present new observations of the faint "Sirius-like" companion discovered to orbit HD 114174. Previous attempts to image HD 114174 B at mid-infrared wavelengths using NIRC2 at Ke…
Diffraction-limited Visible Light Images of Orion Trapezium Cluster With the Magellan Adaptive Secondary AO System (MagAO)
L. M. Close, J. R. Males, K. Morzinski +13
We utilized the new high-order (250-378 mode) Magellan Adaptive Optics system (MagAO) to obtain very high spatial resolution observations in "visible light" with MagAO's VisAO CCD…
High Resolution H alpha Images of the Binary Low-mass Proplyd LV 1 with the Magellan AO System
Y. -L. Wu, L. M. Close, J. R. Males +11
We utilize the new Magellan adaptive optics system (MagAO) to image the binary proplyd LV 1 in the Orion Trapezium at H alpha. This is among the first AO results in visible wavelen…
A Thermal Infrared Imaging Study of Very Low-Mass, Wide Separation Brown Dwarf Companions to Upper Scorpius Stars: Constraining Circumstellar Environments
Vanessa Bailey, Philip M. Hinz, Thayne Currie +18
We present a 3-5um LBT/MMT adaptive optics imaging study of three Upper Scorpius stars with brown dwarf (BD) companions with very low-masses/mass ratios (M_BD < 25M_Jup; M_BD / M_s…
The Gray Needle: Large Grains in the HD 15115 Debris Disk from LBT/PISCES/Ks and LBTI/LMIRcam/L' Adaptive Optics Imaging
Timothy J. Rodigas, Philip M. Hinz, Jarron Leisenring +52
We present diffraction-limited \ks band and \lprime adaptive optics images of the edge-on debris disk around the nearby F2 star HD 15115, obtained with a single 8.4 m primary mirro…
