FIRST-PL: Commissioning the first visible photonic lantern spectrograph for sub-diffraction-limit astronomy on Subaru/SCExAO
Sebastien Vievard, Elsa Huby, Sylvestre Lacour +18
FIRST-PL (Fibered Imager foR a Single Telescope - Photonic Lantern) is a newly commissioned visible-light instrument on Subaru/SCExAO achieving spectroscopy below the diffraction l…
Two inner dust clumps in PDS 70. A third protoplanet traced by trojan material or a substructured inner disk?
O. Balsalobre-Ruza, V. Christiaens, N. Huélamo +21
The PDS 70 cavity hosts two confirmed directly imaged protoplanets and a third inner planet candidate at 13au, labeled PDS 70 d. Despite its Keplerian motion, its unusually blue sp…
Multi-epoch scattered-light analysis of HD 135344B: new evidence for a spiral-driving protoplanet
J. Latour, V. Christiaens, O. Absil +17
The HD 135344B (SAO 206462) disk exhibits strong signposts of planet formation. ALMA images in the sub-mm revealed a gap-crossing dust filament whose position coincides with a twis…
Keplerian motion of a compact source orbiting the inner disc of PDS 70: a third protoplanet in resonance with b and c?
Iain Hammond, Valentin Christiaens, Daniel J. Price +10
The disc around PDS 70 hosts two directly imaged protoplanets in a gap. Previous VLT/SPHERE and recent James Webb Space Telescope/NIRCam observations have hinted at the presence of…
Exoplanet Imaging Data Challenge, phase II: Comparison of algorithms in terms of characterization capabilities
Faustine Cantalloube, Valentin Christiaens, Carles Cantero Mitjans +15
In this communication, we report on the results of the second phase of the Exoplanet Imaging Data Challenge started in 2019. This second phase focuses on the characterization of po…
