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…
First Light LBT AO Images of HR 8799 bcde at 1.65 and 3.3 Microns: New Discrepancies between Young Planets and Old Brown Dwarfs
Andrew J. Skemer, Philip M. Hinz, Simone Esposito +45
As the only directly imaged multiple planet system, HR 8799 provides a unique opportunity to study the physical properties of several planets in parallel. In this paper, we image a…
Large Binocular Telescope Adaptive Optics System: New achievements and perspectives in adaptive optics
Simone Esposito, Armando Riccardi, Enrico Pinna +15
The Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) is a unique telescope featuring two co-mounted optical trains with 8.4m primary mirrors. The telescope Adaptive Optics (AO) system uses two inno…
High Resolution Images of Orbital Motion in the Orion Trapezium Cluster with the LBT Adaptive Optics System
L. M. Close, A. Puglisi, J. R. Males +28
The new 8.4m LBT adaptive secondary AO system, with its novel pyramid wavefront sensor, was used to produce very high Strehl (75% at 2.16 microns) near infrared narrowband (Br gamm…
LBT observations of the HR 8799 planetary system: First detection of HR8799e in H band
S. Esposito, D. Mesa, A. Skemer +33
We have performed H and Ks band observations of the planetary system around HR 8799 using the new AO system at the Large Binocular Telescope and the PISCES Camera. The excellent in…
The Gray Needle: Large Grains in the HD 15115 Debris Disk from LBT/PISCES/Ks and LBTI/LMIRcam/L' Adaptive Optics Imaging
Timothy J. Rodigas, Philip M. Hinz, Jarron Leisenring +52
We present diffraction-limited \ks band and \lprime adaptive optics images of the edge-on debris disk around the nearby F2 star HD 15115, obtained with a single 8.4 m primary mirro…
