The Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign: The Frequency of Planets around Young Moving Group Stars
Beth A. Biller, Michael C. Liu, Zahed Wahhaj +18
We report results of a direct imaging survey for giant planets around 80 members of the Beta Pic, TW Hya, Tucana-Horologium, AB Dor, and Hercules-Lyra moving groups, observed as pa…
The Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign: The Frequency of Giant Planets Around Debris Disk Stars
Zahed Wahhaj, Michael C. Liu, Eric L. Nielsen +17
We have completed a high-contrast direct imaging survey for giant planets around 57 debris disk stars as part of the Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign. We achieved median H-band…
The Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign: The Frequency of Giant Planets around Young B and A Stars
Eric L. Nielsen, Michael C. Liu, Zahed Wahhaj +22
We have carried out high contrast imaging of 70 young, nearby B and A stars to search for brown dwarf and planetary companions as part of the Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign. O…
The Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign : Discovery of a Substellar L Dwarf Companion to the Nearby Young M Dwarf CD-35 2722
Zahed Wahhaj, Michael C. Liu, Beth A. Biller +23
We present the discovery of a wide (67 AU) substellar companion to the nearby (21 pc) young solar-metallicity M1 dwarf CD-35 2722, a member of the ~100 Myr AB Doradus association.…
Searching for Young M Dwarfs with GALEX
Evgenya L. Shkolnik, Michael C. Liu, Iain Neill Reid +2
The census of young moving groups in the solar neighborhood is significantly incomplete in the low-mass regime. We have developed a new selection process to find these missing memb…
The Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign: Discovery of a Close Substellar Companion to the Young Debris Disk Star PZ Tel
Beth A. Biller, Michael C. Liu, Zahed Wahhaj +24
We report the discovery of a tight substellar companion to the young solar analog PZ Tel, a member of the Beta Pictoris moving group observed with high contrast adaptive optics ima…
