SEEDS Adaptive Optics Imaging of the Asymmetric Transition Disk Oph IRS 48 in Scattered Light

Katherine B. Follette, Carol A. Grady, Jeremy R. Swearingen +60

We present the first resolved near infrared imagery of the transition disk Oph IRS 48 (WLY 2-48), which was recently observed with ALMA to have a strongly asymmetric sub-millimeter…

Recovery of the Candidate Protoplanet HD 100546 b with Gemini/NICI and Detection of Additional (Planet-Induced?) Disk Structure at Small Separations

Thayne Currie, Takayuki Muto, Tomoyuki Kudo +23

We report the first independent, second-epoch (re-)detection of a directly-imaged protoplanet candidate. Using high-contrast imaging of HD 100546 taken with the Near-Inf…

On the Morphology and Chemical Composition of the HR 4796A Debris Disk

Timothy J. Rodigas, Christopher C. Stark, Alycia Weinberger +17

[abridged] We present resolved images of the HR 4796A debris disk using the Magellan adaptive optics system paired with Clio-2 and VisAO. We detect the disk at 0.77 \microns, 0.91…

Surface Geometry of Protoplanetary Disks Inferred From Near-Infrared Imaging Polarimetry

Michihiro Takami, Yasuhiro Hasegawa, Takayuki Muto +58

We present a new method of analysis for determining the surface geometry of five protoplanetary disks observed with near-infrared imaging polarimetry using Subaru-HiCIAO. Using as…

Polarized Light Imaging of the HD 142527 Transition Disk with the Gemini Planet Imager: Dust around the Close-in Companion

Timothy J. Rodigas, Katherine B. Follette, Alycia Weinberger +2

When giant planets form, they grow by accreting gas and dust. HD 142527 is a young star that offers a scaled-up view of this process. It has a broad, asymmetric ring of gas and dus…

MagAO: Status and on-sky performance of the Magellan adaptive optics system

Katie M. Morzinski, Laird M. Close, Jared R. Males +19

MagAO is the new adaptive optics system with visible-light and infrared science cameras, located on the 6.5-m Magellan "Clay" telescope at Las Campanas Observatory, Chile. The inst…
