Characterization of Exoplanet Atmospheres with the Optical Coronagraph on WFIRST
Brianna Lacy, David Shlivko, Adam Burrows
WFIRST-CGI is a NASA technology demonstration mission that is charged with demonstrating key technologies for future exo-Earth imaging missions in space. In the process, it will ob…
Testing the models: NIR imaging and spectroscopy of the benchmark T-dwarf binary Eps Indi B
Markus Kasper, Adam Burrows, Wolfgang Brandner
The relative roles of metallicity and surface gravity on the near-infrared spectra of late-T brown dwarfs are not yet fully understood, and evolutionary models still need to be cal…
Optical Albedo Theory of Strongly-Irradiated Giant Planets: The Case of HD 209458b
A. Burrows, L. Ibgui, I. Hubeny
We calculate a new suite of albedo models for close-in extrasolar giant planets and compare with the recent stringent upper limit for HD 209458b of Rowe et al. using MOST. We find…
A Method for Determining the Physical Properties of the Coldest Known Brown Dwarfs
Adam J. Burgasser, Adam Burrows, J. Davy Kirkpatrick
We present a method for measuring the physical parameters of the coldest T-type brown dwarfs using low resolution near infrared spectra. By comparing H_2O- and H_2-sensitive spectr…
A Lack of Planets in 47 Tucanae from an HST Search
Ronald L. Gilliland, T. M. Brown, P. Guhathakurta +21
We report results from a large Hubble Space Telescope project to observe a significant (~34,000) ensemble of main sequence stars in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae with a goal of d…
L Dwarfs and the Substellar Mass Function
I. N. Reid, J. D. Kirkpatrick, J. Liebert +8
Analysis of initial observations from near-infrared sky surveys has shown that the resulting photometric catalogues, combined with far-red optical data, provide an extremely effect…
