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…
Individual, Model-Independent Masses of the Closest Known Brown Dwarf Binary to the Sun
E. Victor Garcia, S. Mark Ammons, Maissa Salama +18
At a distance of 2~pc, our nearest brown dwarf neighbor, Luhman 16 AB, has been extensively studied since its discovery 3 years ago, yet its most fundamental parameter -- the masse…
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…
Improving and Assessing Planet Sensitivity of the GPI Exoplanet Survey with a Forward Model Matched Filter
Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Bruce Macintosh, Jason J. Wang +49
We present a new matched filter algorithm for direct detection of point sources in the immediate vicinity of bright stars. The stellar Point Spread Function (PSF) is first subtract…
Characterizing 51 Eri b from 1-5 m: a partly-cloudy exoplanet
Abhijith Rajan, Julien Rameau, Robert J. De Rosa +58
We present spectro-photometry spanning 1-5 m of 51 Eridani b, a 2-10 M planet discovered by the Gemini Planet Imager Exoplanet Survey. In this study, we present new…
Evidence that the Directly-Imaged Planet HD 131399 Ab is a Background Star
Eric L. Nielsen, Robert J. De Rosa, Julien Rameau +55
We present evidence that the recently discovered, directly-imaged planet HD 131399 Ab is a background star with non-zero proper motion. From new JHK1L' photometry and spectroscopy…
