The Companions to B and A Stars Snapshot (C-BASS) Survey: I. Discovery of a Young Brown Dwarf Companion to HIP 17453

Marah Brinjikji, Adam J. Smith, Jennifer Patience +26

We report the detection of a new brown dwarf companion to HIP 17453 A, a chemically peculiar A0V star located at a distance of 81 pc. HIP 17453 A was observed with high-resolution…

Direct imaging characterization of cool gaseous planets

Michiel Min, Jo Barstow, Laura C. Mayorga +19

Cool gas giant exoplanets, particularly those with properties similar to those of Jupiter and Saturn, remain poorly characterized due to current observational limitations. This whi…

New Orbital Constraints for YSES 1 b and HR 2562 B from High-Precision Astrometry and Planetary Radial Velocities

Jonathan Roberts, William Thompson, Jason J. Wang +20

We present new VLTI/GRAVITY astrometry and updated orbit fits for the directly imaged companions YSES 1 b and HR 2562 B, substellar objects straddling the planet-brown dwarf bounda…

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…

VLTI/GRAVITY Observations of AF Lep b: Preference for Circular Orbits, Cloudy Atmospheres, and a Moderately Enhanced Metallicity

William O. Balmer, Kyle Franson, Antoine Chomez +26

Direct imaging observations are biased towards wide-separation, massive companions that have degenerate formation histories. Although the majority of exoplanets are expected to for…

The Pictoris b Hill sphere transit campaign. Paper II: Searching for the signatures of the Pictoris exoplanets through time delay analysis of the Scuti pulsations

Sebastian Zieba, Konstanze Zwintz, Matthew Kenworthy +34

The Pictoris system is the closest known stellar system with directly detected gas giant planets, an edge-on circumstellar disc, and evidence of falling sublimating bodies and…

Analyzing the Atmospheric Dispersion Correction of the Gemini Planet Imager: residual dispersion above design requirements

Malachi Noel, Jason J. Wang, Bruce Macintosh +6

The Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector (ADC) of the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) corrects the chromatic dispersion caused by differential atmospheric refraction (DAR), making it an imp…

VLTI/GRAVITY Observations and Characterization of the Brown Dwarf Companion HD 72946 B

W. O. Balmer, L. Pueyo, T. Stolker +96

Tension remains between the observed and modeled properties of substellar objects, but objects in binary orbits, with known dynamical masses can provide a way forward. HD 72946 B i…
