Direct Imaging Discovery of Giant Exoplanet Pictoris d: A Decade-Long Game of Hide-and-Seek

Ben J. Sutlieff, Markus J. Bonse, Valentin Christiaens +94

We report the direct imaging discovery of a third exoplanet in the Pictoris system. We detect Pictoris d ( Pic d) in non-coronagraphic observations obtained with VLT/ERI…

High-contrast spectroscopy with the new VLT/ERIS instrument: Molecular maps and radial velocity of the gas giant AF Lep b

Jean Hayoz, Markus Johannes Bonse, Felix Dannert +66

The Enhanced Resolution Imager and Spectrograph (ERIS) is the new Adaptive-Optics (AO) assisted Infrared instrument at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). Its refurbished Integral Fiel…

Magellan Adaptive Optics first-light observations of the exoplanet beta Pic b. II. 3-5 micron direct imaging with MagAO+Clio, and the empirical bolometric luminosity of a self-luminous giant planet

Katie M. Morzinski, Jared R. Males, Andy J. Skemer +14

Young giant exoplanets are a unique laboratory for understanding cool, low-gravity atmospheres. A quintessential example is the massive extrasolar planet Pic b, which is 9 AU f…

Magellan Adaptive Optics first-light observations of the exoplanet Pic b. I. Direct imaging in the far-red optical with MagAO+VisAO and in the near-IR with NICI

Jared R. Males, Laird M. Close, Katie M. Morzinski +20

We present the first ground-based CCD (m) image of an extrasolar planet. Using MagAO's VisAO camera we detected the extrasolar giant planet (EGP) Pictoris b in -short…

The First Circumstellar Disk Imaged in Silhouette with Adaptive Optics: MagAO Imaging of Orion 218-354

Katherine B. Follette, Laird M. Close, Jared R. Males +11

We present high resolution adaptive optics (AO) corrected images of the silhouette disk Orion 218-354 taken with Magellan AO (MagAO) and its visible light camera, VisAO, in simulta…

First Light LBT AO Images of HR 8799 bcde at 1.65 and 3.3 Microns: New Discrepancies between Young Planets and Old Brown Dwarfs

Andrew J. Skemer, Philip M. Hinz, Simone Esposito +45

As the only directly imaged multiple planet system, HR 8799 provides a unique opportunity to study the physical properties of several planets in parallel. In this paper, we image a…

LBT observations of the HR 8799 planetary system: First detection of HR8799e in H band

S. Esposito, D. Mesa, A. Skemer +33

We have performed H and Ks band observations of the planetary system around HR 8799 using the new AO system at the Large Binocular Telescope and the PISCES Camera. The excellent in…
