Strategic Scientific Plan for Gemini Observatory
J. P. Blakeslee, A. Adamson, C. Davis +30
We present the Strategic Scientific Plan (SSP) for the direction and activities of the Gemini Observatory in the 2020s. The overarching goal is to ensure that Gemini best uses the…
Entering into the Wide Field Adaptive Optics Era on Maunakea
Gaetano Sivo, John Blakeslee, Jennifer Lotz +32
As part of the National Science Foundation funded "Gemini in the Era of MultiMessenger Astronomy" (GEMMA) program, Gemini Observatory is developing GNAO, a widefield adaptive optic…
Probing the Time Domain with High Spatial Resolution
J. P. Blakeslee, S. A. Rodney, J. M. Lotz +17
Two groundbreaking new facilities will commence operations early in the 2020s and thereafter define much of the broad landscape of US optical-infrared astronomy in the remaining de…
Gemini Infrared Multi-Object Spectrograph: Instrument Overview
Suresh Sivanandam, Scott Chapman, Luc Simard +27
The Gemini Infrared Multi-Object Spectrograph (GIRMOS) is a powerful new instrument being built to facility-class standards for the Gemini telescope. It takes advantage of the late…
Towards an automatic wind speed and direction profiler for Wide Field AO systems
G. Sivo, A. Turchi, E. Masciadri +2
Wide Field Adaptive Optics (WFAO) systems are among the most sophisticated AO systems available today on large telescopes. The knowledge of the vertical spatio-temporal distributio…
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…
