A Statistical Analysis of SEEDS and Other High-Contrast Exoplanet Surveys: Massive Planets or Low-Mass Brown Dwarfs?

Timothy D. Brandt, Michael W. McElwain, Edwin L. Turner +50

We conduct a statistical analysis of a combined sample of direct imaging data, totalling nearly 250 stars. The stars cover a wide range of ages and spectral types, and include five…

Imaging Discovery of the Debris Disk Around HIP 79977

C. Thalmann, M. Janson, E. Buenzli +47

We present Subaru/HiCIAO H-band high-contrast images of the debris disk around HIP 79977, whose pres- ence was recently inferred from an infrared excess. Our images resolve the dis…

New Techniques for High-Contrast Imaging with ADI: the ACORNS-ADI SEEDS Data Reduction Pipeline

Timothy D. Brandt, Michael W. McElwain, Edwin L. Turner +44

We describe Algorithms for Calibration, Optimized Registration, and Nulling the Star in Angular Differential Imaging (ACORNS-ADI), a new, parallelized software package to reduce hi…

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…

Search for Outer Massive Bodies around Transiting Planetary Systems: Candidates of Faint Stellar Companions around HAT-P-7

Norio Narita, Tomoyuki Kudo, Carolina Bergfors +46

We present results of direct imaging observations for HAT-P-7 taken with the Subaru HiCIAO and the Calar Alto AstraLux. Since the close-in transiting planet HAT-P-7b was reported t…
