The LEECH Exoplanet Imaging Survey: Characterization of the Coldest Directly Imaged Exoplanet, GJ 504 b, and Evidence for Super-Stellar Metallicity
Andrew J. Skemer, Caroline V. Morley, Neil T. Zimmerman +39
As gas giant planets and brown dwarfs radiate away the residual heat from their formation, they cool through a spectral type transition from L to T, which encompasses the dissipati…
Accreting Protoplanets in the LkCa 15 Transition Disk
S. Sallum, K. B. Follette, J. A. Eisner +14
Exoplanet detections have revolutionized astronomy, offering new insights into solar system architecture and planet demographics. While nearly 1900 exoplanets have now been discove…
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…
Exoplanet science with the LBTI: instrument status and plans
D. Defrère, P. Hinz, A. Skemer +21
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) is a strategic instrument of the LBT designed for high-sensitivity, high-contrast, and high-resolution infrared (1.5-13 m) im…
First-light LBT nulling interferometric observations: warm exozodiacal dust resolved within a few AU of eta Corvi
D. Defrère, P. M. Hinz, A. J. Skemer +37
We report on the first nulling interferometric observations with the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI), resolving the N' band (9.81 - 12.41 um) emission around the ne…
Co-phasing the Large Binocular Telescope: status and performance of LBTI/PHASECam
D. Defrère, P. Hinz, E. Downey +19
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer is a NASA-funded nulling and imaging instrument designed to coherently combine the two 8.4-m primary mirrors of the LBT for high-sensit…
