CHARIS Science: Performance Simulations for the Subaru Telescope's Third-Generation of Exoplanet Imaging Instrumentation
Timothy D. Brandt, Michael W. McElwain, Markus Janson +21
We describe the expected scientific capabilities of CHARIS, a high-contrast integral-field spectrograph (IFS) currently under construction for the Subaru telescope. CHARIS is part…
Deep Thermal Infrared Imaging of HR 8799 bcde: New Atmospheric Constraints and Limits on a Fifth Planet
Thayne Currie, Adam Burrows, Julien H. Girard +10
We present new (3.8 ) and Br- (4.05 ) data and reprocessed archival data for the young, planet-hosting star HR 8799 obtained with Keck/NIRC2, VLT/N…
AKARI Observations of Brown Dwarfs. IV. Effect of Elemental Abundances to Near-Infrared Spectra between 1.0 and 5.0 μm
Satoko Sorahana, Issei Yamamura
The detection of the CO_2 absorption band at 4.2 μm in brown dwarf spectra by AKARI has made it possible to discuss CO_2 molecular abundance in brown dwarf atmospheres. In our prev…
An Approach for Retrieving Temperatures and Abundances in Brown Dwarf Atmospheres
Michael R. Line, Jonathan J. Fortney, Mark S. Marley +1
Brown dwarf spectra contain a wealth of information about their molecular abundances, temperature structure, and gravity. We present a new data driven retrieval approach, previousl…
A Signature of Chromospheric Activity in Brown Dwarfs Revealed by 2.5-5.0 Micron AKARI Spectra
Satoko Sorahana, Takeru K. Suzuki, Issei Yamamura
We propose that the 2.7 micron H_2O, 3.3 micron CH_4 and 4.6 micron CO absorption bands can be good tracers of chromospheric activity in brown dwarfs. In our previous study, we fou…
