The Exoplanet Simple Orbit Fitting Toolbox (ExoSOFT): An Open-Source Tool for Efficient Fitting of Astrometric and Radial Velocity Data

Kyle Mede, Timothy D. Brandt

We present the Exoplanet Simple Orbit Fitting Toolbox (ExoSOFT), a new, open-source suite to fit the orbital elements of planetary or stellar mass companions to any combination of…

A Direct Imaging Survey of Spitzer detected debris disks: Occurrence of giant planets in dusty systems

Tiffany Meshkat, Dimitri Mawet, Marta Bryan +10

We describe a joint high contrast imaging survey for planets at Keck and VLT of the last large sample of debris disks identified by the Spitzer Space Telescope. No new substellar c…

Simulating the WFIRST coronagraph Integral Field Spectrograph

Maxime J. Rizzo, Tyler D. Groff, Neil T. Zimmerman +12

A primary goal of direct imaging techniques is to spectrally characterize the atmospheres of planets around other stars at extremely high contrast levels. To achieve this goal, cor…

Gamma-ray and X-ray emission from the Galactic Centre: hints on the nuclear star cluster formation history

Manuel Arca-Sedda, Bence Kocsis, Timothy Brandt

The Milky Way centre exhibits an intense flux in the gamma and X-ray bands, whose origin is partly ascribed to the possible presence of a large population of millisecond pulsars (M…

The Fundamental Stellar Parameters of FGK Stars in the SEEDS Survey

Evan A. Rich, John P. Wisniewski, Michael W. McElwain +59

Large exoplanet surveys have successfully detected thousands of exoplanets to-date. Utilizing these detections and non-detections to constrain our understanding of the formation an…

Constraining accretion signatures of exoplanets in the TW Hya transitional disk

Taichi Uyama, Takayuki Tanigawa, Jun Hashimoto +4

We present a near-infrared direct imaging search for accretion signatures of possible protoplanets around the young stellar object (YSO) TW Hya, a multi-ring disk exhibiting eviden…

Data Reduction Pipeline for the CHARIS Integral-Field Spectrograph I: Detector Readout Calibration and Data Cube Extraction

Timothy D. Brandt, Maxime Rizzo, Tyler Groff +14

We present the data reduction pipeline for CHARIS, a high-contrast integral-field spectrograph for the Subaru Telescope. The pipeline constructs a ramp from the raw reads using the…

Ultraviolet to optical diffuse sky emission as seen by the Hubble Space Telescope Faint Object Spectrograph

K. Kawara, Y. Matsuoka, K. Sano +5

We present an analysis of the blank sky spectra observed with the Faint Object Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope. We study the diffuse sky emission from ultraviolet…
