Magellan Adaptive Optics first-light observations of the exoplanet beta Pic b. II. 3-5 micron direct imaging with MagAO+Clio, and the empirical bolometric luminosity of a self-luminous giant planet
Katie M. Morzinski, Jared R. Males, Andy J. Skemer +14
Young giant exoplanets are a unique laboratory for understanding cool, low-gravity atmospheres. A quintessential example is the massive extrasolar planet Pic b, which is 9 AU f…
Exoplanet science with the LBTI: instrument status and plans
D. Defrère, P. Hinz, A. Skemer +21
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) is a strategic instrument of the LBT designed for high-sensitivity, high-contrast, and high-resolution infrared (1.5-13 m) im…
The absolute age of the globular cluster M15 using near-infrared adaptive optics images from PISCES/LBT
M. Monelli, V. Testa, G. Bono +26
We present deep near-infrared (NIR) J, Ks photometry of the old, metal-poor Galactic globular cluster M\,15 obtained with images collected with the LUCI1 and PISCES cameras availab…
New Extinction and Mass Estimates of the Low-mass Companion 1RXS 1609 B with the Magellan AO System: Evidence of an Inclined Dust Disk
Ya-Lin Wu, Laird M. Close, Jared R. Males +9
We used the Magellan adaptive optics system to image the 11 Myr substellar companion 1RXS 1609 B at the bluest wavelengths to date (z' and Ys). Comparison with synthetic spectra yi…
First-light LBT nulling interferometric observations: warm exozodiacal dust resolved within a few AU of eta Corvi
D. Defrère, P. M. Hinz, A. J. Skemer +37
We report on the first nulling interferometric observations with the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI), resolving the N' band (9.81 - 12.41 um) emission around the ne…
New Spatially Resolved Observations of the T Cha Transition Disk and Constraints on the Previously Claimed Substellar Companion
S. Sallum, J. A. Eisner, Laird M. Close +11
We present multi-epoch non-redundant masking observations of the T Cha transition disk, taken at the VLT and Magellan in H, Ks, and L' bands. T Cha is one of a small number of tran…
New Extinction and Mass Estimates from Optical Photometry of the Very Low Mass Brown Dwarf Companion CT Chamaeleontis B with the Magellan AO System
Ya-Lin Wu, Laird M. Close, Jared R. Males +9
We used the Magellan adaptive optics (MagAO) system and its VisAO CCD camera to image the young low mass brown dwarf companion CT Chamaeleontis B for the first time at visible wave…
