HD 91669b: A New Brown Dwarf Candidate from the McDonald Observatory Planet Search
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Michael Endl, William D. Cochran +4
We report the detection of a candidate brown dwarf orbiting the metal-rich K dwarf HD 91669, based on radial-velocity data from the McDonald Observatory Planet Search. HD 91669b is…
The Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX): Description and Early Pilot Survey Results
G. J. Hill, K. Gebhardt, E. Komatsu +11
The Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) will outfit the 10 m HET with a new wide field and an array of 150 integral-field spectrographs to survey a 420 sq. deg.…
Prototype development of the Integral-Field unit for VIRUS
Andreas Kelz, Svend M. Bauer, Frank Grupp +6
VIRUS is a planned integral-field instrument for the Hobby-Eberly Telescope (HET). In order to achieve a large field-of-view and high grasp at reasonable costs, the approach is to…
Exploring The Frequency Of Close-In Jovian Planets Around M Dwarfs
Michael Endl, William D. Cochran, Martin Kuerster +4
We discuss our high precision radial velocity results of a sample of 90 M dwarfs observed with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope and the Harlan J. Smith 2.7 m Telescope at McDonald Observ…
A Dedicated M-Dwarf Planet Search Using The Hobby-Eberly Telescope
M. Endl, W. D. Cochran, R. G. Tull +1
We present first results of our planet search program using the 9.2 meter Hobby-Eberly Telescope (HET) at McDonald Observatory to detect planets around M-type dwarf stars via high-…
