Gemini Planet Imager Spectroscopy of the HR 8799 planets c and d
Patrick Ingraham, Mark S. Marley, Didier Saumon +43
During the first-light run of the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) we obtained K-band spectra of exoplanets HR 8799 c and d. Analysis of the spectra indicates that planet d may be warmer…
On-sky low order non-common path correction of the GPI Calibration Unit
Markus Hartung, Bruce Macintosh, Paul Langlois +12
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) entered on-sky commissioning phase, and had its First Light at the Gemini South telescope in November 2013. Meanwhile, the fast loops for atmospheric…
On-sky vibration environment for the Gemini Planet Imager and mitigation effort
Markus Hartung, Tom Hayward, Les Saddlemyer +20
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) entered on-sky commissioning and had its first-light at the Gemini South (GS) telescope in November 2013. GPI is an extreme adaptive optics (XAO), hi…
The First H-band Spectrum of the Massive Gas Giant Planet beta Pictoris b with the Gemini Planet Imager
Jeffrey Chilcote, Travis Barman, Michael P. Fitzgerald +43
Using the recently installed Gemini Planet Imager (GPI), we have taken the first H-band spectrum of the planetary companion to the nearby young star beta Pictoris. GPI is designed…
Polarimetry with the Gemini Planet Imager: Methods, Performance at First Light, and the Circumstellar Ring around HR 4796A
Marshall D. Perrin, Gaspard Duchene, Max Millar-Blanchaer +41
We present the first results from the polarimetry mode of the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI), which uses a new integral field polarimetry architecture to provide high contrast linear p…
Effects of differential wavefront sensor bias drifts on high contrast imaging
Naru Sadakuni, Bruce A. Macintosh, David W. Palmer +11
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a new facility, extreme adaptive optics (AO), coronagraphic instrument, currently being integrated onto the 8-meter Gemini South telescope, with t…
Automated Alignment and On-Sky Performance of the Gemini Planet Imager Coronagraph
Dmitry Savransky, Sandrine J. Thomas, Lisa A. Poyneer +11
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a next-generation, facility instrument currently being commissioned at the Gemini South observatory. GPI combines an extreme adaptive optics syste…
Gemini Planet Imager integration to the Gemini South telescope software environment
Fredrik T. Rantakyrö, Andrew Cardwell, Jeffrey Chilcote +18
The Gemini Planet Imager is an extreme AO instrument with an integral field spectrograph (IFS) operating in Y, J, H, and K bands. Both the Gemini telescope and the GPI instrument a…
Gemini Planet imager Observational Calibrations X: Non-Redundant Masking on GPI
Alexandra Z. Greenbaum, Anthony Cheetham, Anand Sivaramakrishnan +18
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) Extreme Adaptive Optics Coronograph contains an interferometric mode: a 10-hole non-redundant mask (NRM) in its pupil wheel. GPI operates at $Y, J, H…
On-sky performance during verification and commissioning of the Gemini Planet Imager's adaptive optics system
Lisa A. Poyneer, Robert J. De Rosa, Bruce Macintosh +15
The Gemini Planet Imager instrument's adaptive optics (AO) subsystem was designed specifically to facilitate high-contrast imaging. It features several new technologies, including…
The Gemini Planet Imager: First Light
Bruce Macintosh, James R. Graham, Patrick Ingraham +44
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a dedicated facility for directly imaging and spectroscopically characterizing extrasolar planets. It combines a very high-order adaptive optics s…
Sub-nanometer flattening of a 45-cm long, 45-actuator x-ray deformable mirror
L. A. Poyneer, T. McCarville, T. Pardini +4
We have built a 45-cm long x-ray deformable mirror of super-polished single-crystal silicon that has 45 actuators along the tangential axis. After assembly the surface height error…
