First Light LBT AO Images of HR 8799 bcde at 1.65 and 3.3 Microns: New Discrepancies between Young Planets and Old Brown Dwarfs
Andrew J. Skemer, Philip M. Hinz, Simone Esposito +45
As the only directly imaged multiple planet system, HR 8799 provides a unique opportunity to study the physical properties of several planets in parallel. In this paper, we image a…
High Resolution Images of Orbital Motion in the Orion Trapezium Cluster with the LBT Adaptive Optics System
L. M. Close, A. Puglisi, J. R. Males +28
The new 8.4m LBT adaptive secondary AO system, with its novel pyramid wavefront sensor, was used to produce very high Strehl (75% at 2.16 microns) near infrared narrowband (Br gamm…
The Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign: Discovery of a Multiple System Orbiting the Young A Star HD 1160
Eric L. Nielsen, Michael C. Liu, Zahed Wahhaj +22
We report the discovery by the Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign of two low-mass companions to the young A0V star HD 1160 at projected separations of 81 +/- 5 AU (HD 1160 B) and…
LBT observations of the HR 8799 planetary system: First detection of HR8799e in H band
S. Esposito, D. Mesa, A. Skemer +33
We have performed H and Ks band observations of the planetary system around HR 8799 using the new AO system at the Large Binocular Telescope and the PISCES Camera. The excellent in…
The Gray Needle: Large Grains in the HD 15115 Debris Disk from LBT/PISCES/Ks and LBTI/LMIRcam/L' Adaptive Optics Imaging
Timothy J. Rodigas, Philip M. Hinz, Jarron Leisenring +52
We present diffraction-limited \ks band and \lprime adaptive optics images of the edge-on debris disk around the nearby F2 star HD 15115, obtained with a single 8.4 m primary mirro…
