Direct Imaging and Astrometric Detection of a Gas Giant Planet Orbiting an Accelerating Star
Thayne Currie, G. Mirek Brandt, Timothy D. Brandt +31
Direct imaging of gas giant exoplanets provides key information on planetary atmospheres and the architectures of planetary systems. However, few planets have been detected in blin…
The Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph for JWST -- V. Kernel Phase Imaging and Data Analysis
Jens Kammerer, Rachel A. Cooper, Thomas Vandal +26
Kernel phase imaging (KPI) enables the direct detection of substellar companions and circumstellar dust close to and below the classical (Rayleigh) diffraction limit. We present a…
Probing Photon Statistics in Adaptive Optics Images with SCExAO/MEC
Sarah Steiger, Timothy D. Brandt, Olivier Guyon +11
We present an experimental study of photon statistics for high-contrast imaging with the Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector (MKID) Exoplanet Camera (MEC) located behind the Suba…
Controlling petals using fringes: discontinuous wavefront sensing through sparse aperture interferometry at Subaru/SCExAO
Vincent Deo, Sébastien Vievard, Nick Cvetojevic +9
Low wind and petaling effects, caused by the discontinuous apertures of telescopes, are poorly corrected -- if at all -- by commonly used workhorse wavefront sensors (WFSs). Wavefr…
Statistical tests with multi-wavelength Kernel-phase analysis for the detection and characterization of planetary companions
Mamadou N'Diaye, David Mary, Frantz Martinache +4
Kernel phase is a method to interpret stellar point source images by considering their formation as the analytical result of an interferometric process. Using Fourier formalism, th…
High spectral-resolution interferometry down to 1 micron with Asgard/BIFROST at VLTI: Science drivers and project overview
Stefan Kraus, Daniel Mortimer, Sorabh Chhabra +10
We present science cases and instrument design considerations for the BIFROST instrument that will open the short-wavelength (Y/J/H-band), high spectral dispersion (up to R=25,000)…
