NIRC2-Pol: First Light of Near-Infrared Polarimetry on Keck II
Briley L. Lewis, Manxuan Zhang, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +21
NIRC2, the Near Infrared Camera 2 on the Keck II telescope, was recently upgraded with a new suite of polarimetric observing modes. The new polarimetry modes (referred to as NIRC2-…
Enabling Quantitative Polarimetry for Keck/NIRC2: Preliminary Mueller Matrix Model Calibration
Manxuan Zhang, Briley L. Lewis, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +27
The Keck/NIRC2 infrared imager was upgraded in 2025 with dual-beam polarimetric observing modes spanning approximately 1.1--4.1 microns (JHKL' bands). We present a preliminary JHK…
Technical description and performance of the phase II version of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer
Nemanja Jovanovic, Daniel Echeverri, Jacques-Robert Delorme +46
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) is a series of upgrades for the Keck II Adaptive Optics (AO) system and the NIRSPEC spectrograph to enable diffraction limited, high…
Robust support for semi-automated reductions of Keck/NIRSPEC data using PypeIt
Adolfo S. Carvalho, Greg Doppmann, Kyle B. Westfall +7
We present a data reduction pipeline (DRP) for Keck/NIRSPEC built as an addition to the PypeIt Python package. The DRP is capable of reducing multi-order echelle data taken both be…
The high-contrast performance of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer
Jason J. Wang, Dimitri Mawet, Jerry W. Xuan +25
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC), a series of upgrades to the Keck II Adaptive Optics System and Instrument Suite, aims to demonstrate high-resolution spectroscopy o…
The development of HISPEC for Keck and MODHIS for TMT: science cases and predicted sensitivities
Quinn M. Konopacky, Ashley D. Baker, Dimitri Mawet +72
HISPEC is a new, high-resolution near-infrared spectrograph being designed for the W.M. Keck II telescope. By offering single-shot, R=100,000 between 0.98 - 2.5 um, HISPEC will ena…
