Direct Detection of Known Exoplanets in Reflected Light: Predicting Sky Position with Literature Orbit Solutions
Logan A. Pearce, Jared R. Males, Mary Anne Limbach
The next generation of ground- and space-based observatories will enable direct imaging and characterization of cold, mature planets through thermal emission and, for the first tim…
Single-shot focal plane wavefront sensing with the spatially-clipped self-coherent camera
Joshua Liberman, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Jared R. Males +2
The Habitable Worlds Observatory requires active speckle suppression to directly image Earth-like exoplanets. Focal plane wavefront sensing and control allows us to detect, and sub…
The Space Coronagraph Optical Bench (SCoOB): 6. demonstration of Lyot low order wavefront control combined with high order wavefront control using a vortex coronagraph
Kian Milani, Kyle Van Gorkom, Chris B. Mendillo +6
To reach and maintain high contrast levels, coronagraph instruments will require a combination of low-order and high-order wavefront control techniques to correct for dynamic wavef…
Wide Separation Planets In Time (WISPIT): Discovery of a Gap H Protoplanet WISPIT 2b with MagAO-X
Laird M. Close, Richelle F. van Capelleveen, Gabriel Weible +34
Excellent (<25 mas) H images of the star TYC 5709-354-1 led to the discovery of a rare H protoplanet. This star was discovered by the WISPIT survey to have a large multi-ri…
Discovery of H Emission from a Protoplanet Candidate Around the Young Star 2MASS J16120668-3010270 with MagAO-X
Jialin Li, Laird M. Close, Feng Long +32
2MASS J16120668-3010270 (hereafter 2MJ1612) is a young M0 star that hosts a protoplanetary disk in the Upper Scorpious star-forming region. Recent ALMA observations of 2MJ1612 show…
Five New Sirius-Like White Dwarf + Main Sequence Star Systems with MagAO-X
Logan A. Pearce, Jared R. Males, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert +20
Most known white dwarfs in multiple systems with main sequence stars have been discovered with M-type companions, because the white dwarf causes detectable UV excess and bluer colo…
A planetary-mass candidate imaged in the Young Suns Exoplanet Survey
Pengyu Liu, Matthew A. Kenworthy, Beth A. Biller +26
Directly imaged exoplanets in wide orbits challenge current gas giant formation theories. They need to form quickly and acquire enough material before the disk dissipates, which ca…
Making the unmodulated pyramid wavefront sensor smart II. First on-sky demonstration of extreme adaptive optics with deep learning
R. Landman, S. Y. Haffert, J. D. Long +17
Pyramid wavefront sensors (PWFSs) are the preferred choice for current and future extreme adaptive optics (XAO) systems. Almost all instruments use the PWFS in its modulated form t…
Three Years of High-Contrast Imaging of the PDS 70 b and c Exoplanets at Hα with MagAO-X: Evidence of Strong Protoplanet Hα Variability and Circumplanetary Dust
Laird M. Close, Jared R. Males, Jialin Li +23
We present 3 years of high-contrast imaging of the PDS 70 b and c accreting protoplanets with the new extreme AO system MagAO-X as part of the MaxProtoPlanetS survey of H protop…
Phasing the Giant Magellan Telescope: Lab Experiments and First On-sky Demonstration
Maggie Y. Kautz, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Laird M. Close +21
The large apertures of the upcoming generation of Giant Segmented Mirror Telescopes will enable unprecedented angular resolutions that scale as /D and higher sensitivi…
