The W. M. Keck Observatory infrared vortex coronagraph and a first image of HIP79124 B
Eugene Serabyn, Elsa Huby, Keith Matthews +22
An optical vortex coronagraph has been implemented within the NIRC2 camera on the Keck II telescope and used to carry out on-sky tests and observations. The development of this new…
Characterization of the inner disk around HD 141569 A from Keck/NIRC2 L-band vortex coronagraphy
Dimitri Mawet, Élodie Choquet, Olivier Absil +22
HD 141569 A is a pre-main sequence B9.5 Ve star surrounded by a prominent and complex circumstellar disk, likely still in a transition stage from protoplanetary to debris disk phas…
VLT/SPHERE robust astrometry of the HR8799 planets at milliarcsecond-level accuracy Orbital architecture analysis with PyAstrOFit
Olivier Wertz, Olivier Absil, Carlos. A. Gómez González +4
HR8799 is orbited by at least four giant planets, making it a prime target for the recently commissioned Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch (VLT/SPHERE). As such…
MiNDSTEp differential photometry of the gravitationally lensed quasars WFI2033-4723 and HE0047-1756: Microlensing and a new time delay
E. Giannini, R. W. Schmidt, J. Wambsganß +52
We present V and R photometry of the gravitationally lensed quasars WFI2033-4723 and HE0047-1756. The data were taken by the MiNDSTEp collaboration with the 1.54 m Danish telescope…
OGLE-2015-BLG-0479LA,B: Binary Gravitational Microlens Characterized by Simultaneous Ground-based and Space-based Observation
C. Han, A. Udalski, A. Gould +60
We present a combined analysis of the observations of the gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0479 taken both from the ground and by the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope}. T…
Many new variable stars discovered in the core of the globular cluster NGC 6715 (M54) with EMCCD observations
R. Figuera Jaimes, D. M. Bramich, N. Kains +38
We show the benefits of using Electron-Multiplying CCDs and the shift-and-add technique as a tool to minimise the effects of the atmospheric turbulence such as blending between sta…
High-resolution Imaging of Transiting Extrasolar Planetary systems (HITEP). I. Lucky imaging observations of 101 systems in the southern hemisphere
D. F. Evans, J. Southworth, P. F. L. Maxted +33
(abridged) Context. Wide binaries are a potential pathway for the formation of hot Jupiters. The binary fraction among host stars is an important discriminator between competing fo…
Spitzer Observations of OGLE-2015-BLG-1212 Reveal a New Path to Breaking Strong Microlens Degeneracies
V. Bozza, Y. Shvartzvald, A. Udalski +98
Spitzer microlensing parallax observations of OGLE-2015-BLG-1212 decisively breaks a degeneracy between planetary and binary solutions that is somewhat ambiguous when only ground-b…
