New Worlds on the Horizon: Earth-Sized Planets Close to Other Stars
Eric Gaidos, Nader Haghighipour, Eric Agol +3
The search for habitable planets like Earth around other stars fulfils an ancient imperative to understand our origins and place in the cosmos. The past decade has seen the discove…
X-Ray and Infrared Observations of Embedded Young Stars in L1630
T. Simon, S. M. Andrews, J. T. Rayner +1
The HH 24-26 star-forming region within the L1630 dark cloud in Orion contains a remarkable collection of rare Class 0 and Class I protostars, collimated molecular and ionized jets…
Non-Linearity Corrections and Statistical Uncertainties Associated with Near-Infrared Arrays
W. D. Vacca, M. C. Cushing, J. T. Rayner
We derive general equations for non-linearity corrections and statistical uncertainty (variance) estimates for data acquired with near-infrared detectors employing correlated doubl…
A Method of Correcting Near-Infrared Spectra for Telluric Absorption
William D. Vacca, Michael C. Cushing, John T. Rayner
We present a method for correcting near-infrared medium-resolution spectra for telluric absorption. The method makes use of a spectrum of an A0V star, observed near in time and clo…
