Revisiting Near-Infrared Features of Kilonovae: The Importance of Gadolinium
Salma Rahmouni, Masaomi Tanaka, Nanae Domoto +7
The observation of the kilonova AT2017gfo and investigations of its light curves and spectra confirmed that neutron star mergers are sites of r-process nucleosynthesis. However, th…
Atmospheric retrieval of Subaru/IRD high-resolution spectrum of the archetype T-type brown dwarf Gl 229 B
Yui Kawashima, Hajime Kawahara, Yui Kasagi +14
Brown dwarfs provide a unique opportunity to study atmospheres and their physical and chemical processes with high precision, especially in temperature ranges relevant to exoplanet…
Design, scientific goals, and performance of the SCExAO survey for planets around accelerating stars
Mona El Morsy, Thayne Currie, Masayuki Kuzuhara +25
We describe the motivation, design, and early results for our 42-night, 125 star Subaru/SCExAO direct imaging survey for planets around accelerating stars. Unlike prior large surve…
K2-399 b is not a planet. The Saturn that wandered through the Neptune desert is actually a hierarchical eclipsing binary
J. Lillo-Box, D. W. Latham, K. A. Collins +19
The transit technique has been very efficient in detecting planet candidate signals over the past decades. The so-called statistical validation approach has become a popular way of…
Dynamical and Atmospheric Characterization of the Substellar Companion HD 33632 Ab from Direct Imaging, Astrometry, and Radial-Velocity Data
Mona El Morsy, Thayne Currie, Danielle Bovie +17
We present follow-up SCExAO/CHARIS and -band (R 70) high-contrast integral field spectroscopy and Keck/NIRC2 photometry of directly-imaged brown dwarf companion HD 33…
Gliese 12 b: A temperate Earth-sized planet at 12 pc ideal for atmospheric transmission spectroscopy
M. Kuzuhara, A. Fukui, J. H. Livingston +103
Recent discoveries of Earth-sized planets transiting nearby M dwarfs have made it possible to characterize the atmospheres of terrestrial planets via follow-up spectroscopic observ…
The Discovery and Follow-up of Four Transiting Short-period Sub-Neptunes Orbiting M dwarfs
Y. Hori, A. Fukui, T. Hirano +100
Sub-Neptunes with are intermediate in size between rocky planets and Neptune-sized planets. The orbital properties and bulk compositions of transiting sub-Neptunes pr…
Transit Spectroscopy of K2-33b with Subaru/IRD: Spin-Orbit Alignment and Tentative Atmospheric Helium
Teruyuki Hirano, Eric Gaidos, Hiroki Harakawa +13
Exoplanets in their infancy are ideal targets to probe the formation and evolution history of planetary systems, including the planet migration and atmospheric evolution and dissip…
Direct-imaging Discovery of a Substellar Companion Orbiting the Accelerating Variable Star, HIP 39017
Taylor L. Tobin, Thayne Currie, Yiting Li +23
We present the direct-imaging discovery of a substellar companion (a massive planet or low-mass brown dwarf) to the young, Doradus-type variable star, HIP 39017 (HD 65526). The…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems V: Do Self-Consistent Atmospheric Models Represent JWST Spectra? A Showcase With VHS 1256 b
Simon Petrus, Niall Whiteford, Polychronis Patapis +119
The unprecedented medium-resolution (R~1500-3500) near- and mid-infrared (1-18um) spectrum provided by JWST for the young (140+/-20Myr) low-mass (12-20MJup) L-T transition (L7) com…
