Direct Imaging Discovery of a `Super-Jupiter' Around the late B-Type Star Kappa And

J. Carson, C. Thalmann, M. Janson +52

We present the direct imaging discovery of an extrasolar planet, or possible low-mass brown dwarf, at a projected separation of 55 +/- 2 AU (1.058 +/- 0.007 arcsec) from the B9-typ…

Exploring the NRO Opportunity for a Hubble-sized Wide-field Near-IR Space Telescope -- NEW WFIRST

Alan Dressler, David Spergel, Matt Mountain +24

We discuss scientific, technical and programmatic issues related to the use of an NRO 2.4m telescope for the WFIRST initiative of the 2010 Decadal Survey. We show that this impleme…

The Structure of Pre-transitional Protoplanetary Disks I: Radiative Transfer Modeling of the Disk+Cavity in the PDS 70 system

Ruobing Dong, Jun Hashimoto, Roman Rafikov +49

Through detailed radiative transfer modeling, we present a disk+cavity model to simultaneously explain both the SED and Subaru H-band polarized light imaging for the pre-transition…

A Common Proper Motion Stellar Companion to HAT-P-7

Norio Narita, Yasuhiro H. Takahashi, Masayuki Kuzuhara +51

We report that HAT-P-7 has a common proper motion stellar companion. The companion is located at arcsec to the east and estimated as an M5.5V dwarf based on its colors. W…
