The HOSTS survey for exozodiacal dust: Observational results from the complete survey
Steve Ertel, Denis Defrère, Philip M. Hinz +43
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) enables nulling interferometric observations across the N band (8 to 13 um) to suppress a star's bright light and probe for fain…
Resolved imaging of the AR Puppis circumbinary disk
S. Ertel, D. Kamath, M. Hillen +14
Circumbinary disks are common around post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) stars with a stellar companion on orbital time scales of a few 100 to few 1000 days. The presence of a…
Thermal Emission in the Southwest Clump of VY CMa
Michael S. Gordon, Terry J. Jones, Roberta M. Humphreys +6
We present high spatial resolution LBTI/NOMIC images of VY CMa and its massive outflow feature, the Southwest (SW) Clump. Combined with high-resolution imaging from HST…
The TRENDS High-Contrast Imaging Survey. VII. Discovery of a Nearby Sirius-like White Dwarf System (HD 169889)
Justin R. Crepp, Erica J. Gonzales, Brendan P. Bowler +8
Monitoring the long-term radial velocity (RV) and acceleration of nearby stars has proven an effective method for directly detecting binary and substellar companions. Some fraction…
The HOSTS survey - Exozodiacal dust measurements for 30 stars
S. Ertel, D. Defrère, P. Hinz +40
The HOSTS (Hunt for Observable Signatures of Terrestrial Systems) survey searches for dust near the habitable zones (HZs) around nearby, bright main sequence stars. We use nulling…
The Multiplicity of M-Dwarfs in Young Moving Groups
Yutong Shan, Jennifer C. Yee, Brendan P. Bowler +11
We image 104 newly identified low-mass (mostly M-dwarf) pre-main sequence members of nearby young moving groups with Magellan Adaptive Optics (MagAO) and identify 27 binaries with…
Hunting for planets in the HL Tau disk
L. Testi, A. Skemer, Th. Henning +10
Recent ALMA images of HL Tau show gaps in the dusty disk that may be caused by planetary bodies. Given the young age of this system, if confirmed, this finding would imply very sho…
