Images of the Extended Outer Regions of the Debris Ring Around HR 4796 A

C. Thalmann, M. Janson, E. Buenzli +48

We present high-contrast images of HR 4796 A taken with Subaru/HiCIAO in H-band, resolving the debris disk in scattered light. The application of specialized angular differential i…

A 5 Micron Image of beta Pictoris b at a Sub-Jupiter Projected Separation: Evidence for a Misalignment Between the Planet and the Inner, Warped Disk

Thayne Currie, Christian Thalmann, Soko Matsumura +3

We present and analyze a new M' detection of the young exoplanet beta Pictoris b from 2008 VLT/NaCo data at a separation of ~ 4 AU and a high signal-to-noise rereduction of L' data…

Piercing the Glare: Direct Imaging Search for Planets in the Sirius System

Christian Thalmann, Tomonori Usuda, Matthew Kenworthy +10

Astrometric monitoring of the Sirius binary system over the past century has yielded several predictions for an unseen third system component, the most recent one suggesting a \leq…

A dual-mask coronagraph for observing faint companions to binary stars

Eric Cady, Michael McElwain, N. Jeremy Kasdin +1

Observations of binary stars for faint companions with conventional coronagraphic methods are challenging, as both targets will be bright enough to obscure any nearby faint compani…
