Pioneering high contrast science instruments for planet characterization on giant segmented mirror telescopes
N. Jovanovic, O. Guyon, J. Lozi +36
A suite of science instruments is critical to any high contrast imaging facility, as it defines the science capabilities and observing modes available. SCExAO uses a modular approa…
Discovery of a point-like source and a third spiral arm in the transition disk around the Herbig Ae star MWC 758
M. Reggiani, V. Christiaens, O. Absil +20
Transition disks offer the extraordinary opportunity to look for newly born planets and investigate the early stages of planet formation. In this context we observed the Herbig A5…
Deep imaging search for planets forming in the TW Hya protoplanetary disk with the Keck/NIRC2 vortex coronagraph
G. Ruane, D. Mawet, J. Kastner +10
Distinct gap features in the nearest protoplanetary disk, TW Hya (distance of 59.50.9 pc), may be signposts of ongoing planet formation. We performed long-exposure thermal inf…
On-sky performance of the QACITS pointing control technique with the Keck/NIRC2 vortex coronagraph
Elsa Huby, Michael Bottom, Bruno Femenia +4
A vortex coronagraph is now available for high contrast observations with the Keck/NIRC2 instrument at L band. Reaching the optimal performance of the coronagraph requires fine con…
