RV measurements of directly imaged brown dwarf GQ Lup B to search for exo-satellites
Katelyn Horstman, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Konstantin Batygin +35
GQ Lup B is one of the few substellar companions with a detected cicumplanetary disk, or CPD. Observations of the CPD suggest the presence of a cavity, possibly formed by an exo-sa…
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…
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…
US Adaptive Optics Roadmap to Achieve Astro2020
Julian Christou, Mark Chun, Richard Dekany +4
In the recent Astro2020 Decadal Report, ''Pathways to Discovery in Astronomy and Astrophysics for the 2020s'' Adaptive Optics (AO) was identified as a crucial technology for a vari…
Detecting exomoons from radial velocity measurements of self-luminous planets: application to observations of HR 7672 B and future prospects
Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Katelyn Horstman, Dimitri Mawet +36
The detection of satellites around extrasolar planets, so called exomoons, remains a largely unexplored territory. In this work, we study the potential of detecting these elusive o…
A Clear View of a Cloudy Brown Dwarf Companion from High-Resolution Spectroscopy
Jerry W. Xuan, Jason Wang, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio +37
Direct imaging studies have mainly used low-resolution spectroscopy () to study the atmospheres of giant exoplanets and brown dwarf companions, but the presence of clo…
