Astrometric Methods for Detecting Exomoons Orbiting Imaged Exoplanets: Prospects for Detecting Moons Orbiting a Giant Planet in Centauri A's Habitable Zone
Kevin Wagner, Ewan Douglas, Steve Ertel +5
Nearby giant exoplanets offer an opportunity to search for moons (exomoons) orbiting them. Here, we present a simulation framework for investigating the possibilities of detecting…
Size and Shape of Jupiter Trojan (2207) Antenor from Stellar Occultations
Feliphe S. Ferreira, Julio I. B. Camargo, Bruno E. Morgado +34
Librating around the Lagrange L5, the Jupiter's Trojan (2207) Antenor has been observed in recent years and its rotational light curve suggests it to be a very likely binary astero…
The HOSTS Survey: Suspected variable dust emission and constraints on companions around θ Boo
G. Garreau, D. Defrère, S. Ertel +23
During the HOSTS survey by the LBTI, an excess emission from the main sequence star θ Boo (F7V spectral type, 14.5pc distance) was observed. This excess indicates the presence of…
Direct imaging of AGN outflows and their origin with the 23 m Large Binocular Telescope
Jacob W. Isbell, Steve Ertel, Jörg-Uwe Pott +17
Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are a key component of galaxy evolution due to feedback on the host from its supermassive black hole. The morphology of warm, in- and outflowing dusty…
