Atmospheric abundances and bulk properties of the binary brown dwarf Gliese 229 Bab from JWST/MIRI spectroscopy
Jerry W. Xuan, Marshall D. Perrin, Dimitri Mawet +8
We present JWST/MIRI low-resolution spectroscopy (m) of the first known substellar companion, Gliese 229 Bab, which was recently resolved into a tight binary brown dwarf…
Efficiently Searching for Close-in Companions around Young M Dwarfs using a Multi-year PSF Library
Aniket Sanghi, Jerry Xuan, Jason Wang +7
We present Super-RDI, a unique framework for the application of reference star differential imaging (RDI) to Keck/NIRC2 high-contrast imaging observations with the vortex coronagra…
A Survey of Protoplanetary Disks Using the Keck/NIRC2 Vortex Coronagraph
Nicole L. Wallack, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Garreth Ruane +34
Recent Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of protoplanetary disks in the millimeter continuum have shown a variety of radial gaps, cavities, and spira…
Fringing analysis and forward modeling of Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) spectra
Katelyn A. Horstman, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Jason J. Wang +27
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) combines high contrast imaging with high resolution spectroscopy (R~35,000 in K band) to study directly imaged exoplanets and brown…
Atmospheric characterization of the super-Jupiter HIP 99770 b with KPIC
Yapeng Zhang, Jerry W. Xuan, Dimitri Mawet +28
Young, self-luminous super-Jovian companions discovered by direct imaging provide a challenging test of planet formation and evolution theories. By spectroscopically characterizing…
The high-contrast performance of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer
Jason J. Wang, Dimitri Mawet, Jerry W. Xuan +25
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC), a series of upgrades to the Keck II Adaptive Optics System and Instrument Suite, aims to demonstrate high-resolution spectroscopy o…
Rotation and Abundances of the Benchmark Brown Dwarf HD 33632 Ab from Keck/KPIC High-resolution Spectroscopy
Chih-Chun Hsu, Jason J. Wang, Jerry W. Xuan +24
We present the projected rotational velocity and molecular abundances for HD 33632 Ab obtained via Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer high-resolution spectroscopy. HD 33632 Ab is…
Are these planets or brown dwarfs? Broadly solar compositions from high-resolution atmospheric retrievals of ~10-30 companions
Jerry W. Xuan, Chih-Chun Hsu, Luke Finnerty +32
Using Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) high-resolution (~35000) spectroscopy from 2.29-2.49 m, we present uniform atmospheric retrievals for eight young substellar…
kappa And b is a fast rotator from KPIC High Resolution Spectroscopy
Evan C. Morris, Jason J. Wang, Chih-Chun Hsu +24
We used the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) to obtain high-resolution (R35,000) K-band spectra of kappa Andromedae b, a planetary-mass companion orbiting the B9V…
Keck Primary Mirror Closed-Loop Segment Control using a Vector-Zernike Wavefront Sensor
Maissa Salama, Charlotte Guthery, Vincent Chambouleyron +17
We present the first on-sky segmented primary mirror closed-loop piston control using a Zernike wavefront sensor (ZWFS) installed on the Keck II telescope. Segment co-phasing error…
Orbital and Atmospheric Characterization of the 1RXS J034231.8+121622 System Using High-Resolution Spectroscopy Confirms That The Companion is a Low-Mass Star
Clarissa R. Do Ó, Ben Sappey, Quinn M. Konopacky +33
The 1RXS J034231.8+121622 system consists of an M dwarf primary and a directly imaged low-mass stellar companion. We use high resolution spectroscopic data from Keck/KPIC to estima…
Vortex Fiber Nulling for Exoplanet Observations: First Direct Detection of M Dwarf Companions around HIP 21543, HIP 94666, and HIP 50319
Daniel Echeverri, Jerry W. Xuan, John D. Monnier +35
Vortex fiber nulling (VFN) is a technique for detecting and characterizing faint companions at small separations from their host star. A near-infrared (m) VFN demonstrat…
Octofitter: Fast, Flexible, and Accurate Orbit Modelling to Detect Exoplanets
William Thompson, Jensen Lawrence, Dori Blakely +11
As next-generation imaging instruments and interferometers search for planets closer to their stars, they must contend with increasing orbital motion and longer integration times.…
