Characterization of the Host Binary of the Directly Imaged Exoplanet HD 143811 AB b
Anne E. Peck, William Roberson, Eric L. Nielsen +50
HD~143811~AB is the host star to the directly imaged planet HD~143811~AB~b, which was recently discovered using data from the Gemini Planet Imager and Keck NIRC2. A member of the S…
13 Billion Years of MgII Absorber Evolution
Christopher W. Churchill, Asif Abbas, Glenn G. Kacprzak +1
Applying "apportioned integrals," we use dN/dX measurements to determine the MgII absorber equivalent width distribution function for Wr > 0.03 [angstroms] and 0 < z < 7. Adopting…
Requirements for Joint Orbital Characterization of Cold Giants and Habitable Worlds with Habitable Worlds Observatory
Sabina Sagynbayeva, Asif Abbas, Stephen R. Kane +10
We determine optimal requirements for the joint detection of habitable-zone planets and cold giant planets with the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO). Analysis of 164 nearby stars…
Apache Point Observatory follow-up of ACcelerating Candidate ExopLanet host Stars (APO ACCELS): Ages for 166 Accelerating Stars in the Northern Hemisphere
Anne E. Peck, Eric L. Nielsen, Robert J. De Rosa +14
Directly imaged substellar companions with well-constrained ages and masses serve as vital empirical benchmarks for planet formation and evolution models. Potential benchmark compa…
