SCExAO/CHARIS Near-Infrared Scattered-Light Imaging and Integral Field Spectropolarimetry of the AB Aurigae Protoplanetary System

Erica Dykes, Thayne Currie, Kellen Lawson +21

We analyze near-infrared integral field spectropolarimetry of the AB Aurigae protoplanetary disk and protoplanet (AB Aur b), obtained with SCExAO/CHARIS in 22 wavelength channels c…

Design, scientific goals, and performance of the SCExAO survey for planets around accelerating stars

Mona El Morsy, Thayne Currie, Masayuki Kuzuhara +25

We describe the motivation, design, and early results for our 42-night, 125 star Subaru/SCExAO direct imaging survey for planets around accelerating stars. Unlike prior large surve…

Spectroscopy using a visible photonic lantern at the Subaru telescope: Laboratory characterization and first on-sky demonstration on Ikiiki (α Leo) and `Aua (α Ori)

Sébastien Vievard, Manon Lallement, Sergio Leon-Saval +23

Photonic lanterns are waveguide devices enabling high throughput single mode spectroscopy and high angular resolution. We aim to present the first on-sky demonstration of a photoni…

Visible Photonic Lantern integration, characterization and on-sky testing on Subaru/SCExAO

Sébastien Vievard, Manon Lallement, Sergio Leon-Saval +23

A Photonic Lantern (PL) is a novel device that efficiently converts a multi-mode fiber into several single-mode fibers. When coupled with an extreme adaptive optics (ExAO) system a…

Dynamical and Atmospheric Characterization of the Substellar Companion HD 33632 Ab from Direct Imaging, Astrometry, and Radial-Velocity Data

Mona El Morsy, Thayne Currie, Danielle Bovie +17

We present follow-up SCExAO/CHARIS and -band (R 70) high-contrast integral field spectroscopy and Keck/NIRC2 photometry of directly-imaged brown dwarf companion HD 33…

Direct-imaging Discovery of a Substellar Companion Orbiting the Accelerating Variable Star, HIP 39017

Taylor L. Tobin, Thayne Currie, Yiting Li +23

We present the direct-imaging discovery of a substellar companion (a massive planet or low-mass brown dwarf) to the young, Doradus-type variable star, HIP 39017 (HD 65526). The…

Testing magnetospheric accretion as an H emission mechanism of embedded giant planets: The case study for the disk exhibiting meridional flow around HD 163296

Yasuhiro Hasegawa, Taichi Uyama, Jun Hashimoto +7

Recent high-sensitivity observations reveal that accreting giant planets embedded in their parental circumstellar disks can emit H at their final formation stages. While the ori…
