Stellar Parameters for HD 69830, a Nearby Star with Three Neptune Mass Planets and an Asteroid Belt

Angelle Tanner, Tabetha S. Boyajian, Kaspar von Braun +9

We used the CHARA Array to directly measure the angular diameter of HD 69830, home to three Neptune mass planets and an asteroid belt. Our measurement of 0.674+/-0.014 milli-arcsec…

Stellar Diameters and Temperatures VI. High angular resolution measurements of the transiting exoplanet host stars HD 189733 and HD 209458 and implications for models of cool dwarfs

Tabetha Boyajian, Kaspar von Braun, Gregory A. Feiden +24

We present direct radii measurements of the well-known transiting exoplanet host stars HD 189733 and HD 209458 using the CHARA Array interferometer. We find the limb-darkened angul…

Characterizing the Parents: Exoplanets Around Cool Stars

Kaspar von Braun, Tabetha S. Boyajian, Gerard T. van Belle +2

The large majority of stars in the Milky Way are late-type dwarfs, and the frequency of low-mass exoplanets in orbits around these late-type dwarfs appears to be high. In order to…

The Science Case for the Planet Formation Imager (PFI)

Stefan Kraus, John Monnier, Tim Harries +16

Among the most fascinating and hotly-debated areas in contemporary astrophysics are the means by which planetary systems are assembled from the large rotating disks of gas and dust…

Planet Formation Imager (PFI): Introduction and Technical Considerations

John D. Monnier, Stefan Kraus, David Buscher +13

Complex non-linear and dynamic processes lie at the heart of the planet formation process. Through numerical simulation and basic observational constraints, the basics of planet fo…

Direct Imaging of Planet Transit Events

Gerard T. van Belle, Kaspar von Braun, Tabetha Boyajian +1

Exoplanet transit events are attractive targets for the ultrahigh-resolution capabilities afforded by optical interferometers. The intersection of two developments in astronomy ena…

Novalike Cataclysmic Variables in the Infrared

D. W. Hoard, Knox S. Long, Steve B. Howell +11

Novalike cataclysmic variables have persistently high mass transfer rates and prominent steady state accretion disks. We present an analysis of infrared observations of twelve nova…

NPOI Measurements of Ten Stellar Oscillators

Ellyn K. Baines, J. Thomas Armstrong, Henrique R. Schmitt +3

Using the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer, we measured the angular diameters of 10 stars that have previously measured solar-like oscillations. Our sample covered a range of…
