HD 106906 b: A planetary-mass companion outside a massive debris disk
Vanessa Bailey, Tiffany Meshkat, Megan Reiter +14
We report the discovery of a planetary-mass companion, HD 106906 b, with the new Magellan Adaptive Optics (MagAO) + Clio2 system. The companion is detected with Clio2 in three band…
Predictions for Shepherding Planets in Scattered Light Images of Debris Disks
Timothy J. Rodigas, Renu Malhotra, Philip M. Hinz
Planets can affect debris disk structure by creating gaps, sharp edges, warps, and other potentially observable signatures. However, there is currently no simple way for observers…
Directly Imaged L-T Transition Exoplanets in the Mid-Infrared
Andrew J. Skemer, Mark S. Marley, Philip M. Hinz +15
Gas-giant planets emit a large fraction of their light in the mid-infrared (3m), where photometry and spectroscopy are critical to our understanding of the bulk propert…
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…
Diffraction-limited Visible Light Images of Orion Trapezium Cluster With the Magellan Adaptive Secondary AO System (MagAO)
L. M. Close, J. R. Males, K. Morzinski +13
We utilized the new high-order (250-378 mode) Magellan Adaptive Optics system (MagAO) to obtain very high spatial resolution observations in "visible light" with MagAO's VisAO CCD…
Adaptive Optics Imaging of VY Canis Majoris at 2 - 5 micron with LBT/LMIRCam
Dinesh P. Shenoy, Terry J. Jones, Roberta M. Humphreys +11
We present adaptive optics images of the extreme red supergiant VY Canis Majoris in the Ks, L' and M bands (2.15 to 4.8 micron) made with LMIRCam on the Large Binocular Telescope (…
A Study of the Diverse T Dwarf Population Revealed by WISE
Gregory N. Mace, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Michael C. Cushing +23
We report the discovery of 87 new T dwarfs uncovered with the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) and three brown dwarfs with extremely red near-infrared colors that exhibit…
A Thermal Infrared Imaging Study of Very Low-Mass, Wide Separation Brown Dwarf Companions to Upper Scorpius Stars: Constraining Circumstellar Environments
Vanessa Bailey, Philip M. Hinz, Thayne Currie +18
We present a 3-5um LBT/MMT adaptive optics imaging study of three Upper Scorpius stars with brown dwarf (BD) companions with very low-masses/mass ratios (M_BD < 25M_Jup; M_BD / M_s…
