Infrared Absolute Calibration I: Comparison of Sirius with Fainter Calibration Stars

G. H. Rieke, K. Y. L. Su, G. C. Sloan +1

A challenge in absolute calibration is to relate very bright stars with physical flux measurements to faint ones within range of modern instruments, e.g. those on large groundbased…

Accurate Photometry of Saturated Stars Using the Point-Spread-Function Wing Technique with Spitzer

Kate Y. L. Su, G. H. Rieke, M. Marengo +1

We report Spitzer 3.6 and 4.5 m photometry of 11 bright stars relative to Sirius, exploiting the unique optical stability of the Spitzer Space Telescope point spread function (P…

Hiding in plain sight: observing planet-starspot crossings with the James Webb Space Telescope

Giovanni Bruno, Nikole K. Lewis, Jeff A. Valenti +9

Transiting exoplanets orbiting active stars frequently occult starspots and faculae on the visible stellar disc. Such occultations are often rejected from spectrophotometric transi…

Disintegrating Exoplanets: Creating Size Constraints by Statistically Peering Through the Debris

Keith Baka, Everett Schlawin

We study two intriguing exoplanets, Kepler-1520b and K2-22b, that are being disintegrated by their host stars, producing dust and debris pulled from their surface into tails that t…

H-Alpha Variability of V1298 Tau c

Everett Schlawin, Ilya Ilyin, Adina D. Feinstein +5

The 23 Myr system V1298 Tau hosts four transiting planets and is a valuable laboratory for exploring the early stages of planet evolution soon after formation of the star. We obser…

LBT Reveals Large Dust Particles and a High Mass Loss Rate for K2-22 b

Everett Schlawin, Kate Y. L. Su, Terry Herter +2

The disintegrating planet candidate K2-22 b shows periodic and stochastic transits best explained by an escaping debris cloud. However, the mechanism that creates the debris cloud…
