The First High-Contrast Images of Near High-Mass X-Ray Binaries with Keck/NIRC2
M. Prasow-Émond, J. Hlavacek-Larrondo, K. Fogarty +10
Although the study of X-ray binaries has led to major breakthroughs in high-energy astrophysics, their circumbinary environment at scales of 100--10,000 astronomical units ha…
The First High-Contrast Images of X-Ray Binaries: Detection of Candidate Companions in the Cas Analog RX J1744.72713
M. Prasow-Émond, J. Hlavacek-Larrondo, K. Fogarty +16
X-ray binaries provide exceptional laboratories for understanding the physics of matter under the most extreme conditions. Until recently, there were few, if any, observational con…
Paving the Way to Future Missions: the Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Technology Demonstration
B. Mennesson, R. Juanola-Parramon, B. Nemati +33
This document summarizes how far the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Instrument (Roman CGI) will go toward demonstrating high-contrast imaging and spectroscopic requi…
Directly Imaging Rocky Planets from the Ground
B. Mazin, É. Artigau, V. Bailey +59
Over the past three decades instruments on the ground and in space have discovered thousands of planets outside the solar system. These observations have given rise to an astonishi…
High-contrast imaging of HD 163296 with the Keck/NIRC2 L'-band vortex coronograph
G. Guidi, G. Ruane, J. P. Williams +16
We present observations of the nearby (D100\,pc) Herbig star HD~163296 taken with the vortex coronograph at Keck/NIRC2 in the L' band (3.7~m), to search for planetary mass…
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…
The VORTEX coronagraphic test bench
Aissa Jolivet, Pierre Piron, Elsa Huby +5
In this paper, we present the infrared coronagraphic test bench of the University of Liège named VODCA (Vortex Optical Demonstrator for Coronagraphic Applications). The goal of the…
Properties of the solar neighbor WISE J072003.20-084651.2
V. D. Ivanov, P. Vaisanen, A. Y. Kniazev +14
The severe crowding towards the Galactic plane suggests that the census of nearby stars in that direction may be incomplete. Recently, Scholz reported a new M9 object at an estimat…
L'-band AGPM vector vortex coronagraph's first light on LBTI/LMIRCam
D. Defrère, O. Absil, P. Hinz +20
We present the first observations obtained with the L'-band AGPM vortex coronagraph recently installed on LBTI/LMIRCam. The AGPM (Annular Groove Phase Mask) is a vector vortex coro…
Characterization of the Nearby L/T Binary Brown Dwarf WISE J104915.57-531906.1 at 2 Parsecs from the Sun
A. Y. Kniazev, P. Vaisanen, K. Muzic +22
WISE J104915.57531906.1 is a L/T brown dwarf binary located 2pc from the Sun. The pair contains the closest known brown dwarfs and is the third closest known system, stellar or…
