The Kepler Dichotomy in Planetary Disks: Linking Kepler Observables to Simulations of Late-Stage Planet Formation
John Moriarty, Sarah Ballard
NASA's Kepler Mission uncovered a wealth of planetary systems, many with planets on short-period orbits. These short-period systems reside around 50% of Sun-like stars and are simi…

Fiber scrambling for high-resolution spectrographs. II. A double fiber scrambler for Keck Observatory
Julien F. P. Spronck, Debra A. Fischer, Zachary Kaplan +4
We have designed a fiber scrambler as a prototype for the Keck HIRES spectrograph, using double scrambling to stabilize illumination of the spectrometer and a pupil slicer to incre…
