Optical Images of an Exosolar Planet 25 Light Years from Earth
Paul Kalas, James R. Graham, Eugene Chiang +6
Fomalhaut is a bright star 7.7 parsecs (25 light years) from Earth that harbors a belt of cold dust with a structure consistent with gravitational sculpting by an orbiting planet.…
Direct Imaging of Multiple Planets Orbiting the Star HR 8799
C. Marois, B. Macintosh, T. Barman +5
Direct imaging of exoplanetary systems is a powerful technique that can reveal Jupiter-like planets in wide orbits, can enable detailed characterization of planetary atmospheres, a…
Gas and Dust Associated with the Strange, Isolated, Star BP Piscium
B. Zuckerman, C. Melis, Inseok Song +15
We have carried out a multiwavelength observational campaign demonstrating some of the remarkable properties of the infrared-bright variable star BP Psc. Surrounded by a compact du…
Confidence Level and Sensitivity Limits in High Contrast Imaging
C. Marois, D. Lafreniere, B. Macintosh +1
In long adaptive optics corrected exposures, exoplanet detections are currently limited by speckle noise originating from the telescope and instrument optics, and it is expected th…
The Gemini Deep Planet Survey -- GDPS
David Lafreniere, Rene Doyon, Christian Marois +10
We present the results of the Gemini Deep Planet Survey, a near-infrared adaptive optics search for giant planets and brown dwarfs around nearby young stars. The observations were…
Discovery of a 66 mas Ultracool Binary with Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics
Nick Siegler, Laird M. Close, Adam J. Burgasser +4
We present the discovery of 2MASS J21321145+1341584AB as a closely separated (0.066") very low-mass field dwarf binary resolved in the near-infrared by the Keck II Telescope using…
