Robo-AO Kepler Survey IV: the effect of nearby stars on 3857 planetary candidate systems
Carl Ziegler, Nicholas M. Law, Christoph Baranec +7
We present the overall statistical results from the Robo-AO Kepler planetary candidate survey, comprising of 3857 high-angular resolution observations of planetary candidate system…
A New Standard for Assessing the Performance of High Contrast Imaging Systems
Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Dimitri Mawet, Carlos A. Gomez Gonzalez +8
As planning for the next generation of high contrast imaging instruments (e.g. WFIRST, HabEx, and LUVOIR, TMT-PFI, EELT-EPICS) matures, and second-generation ground-based extreme a…
Deep imaging search for planets forming in the TW Hya protoplanetary disk with the Keck/NIRC2 vortex coronagraph
G. Ruane, D. Mawet, J. Kastner +10
Distinct gap features in the nearest protoplanetary disk, TW Hya (distance of 59.50.9 pc), may be signposts of ongoing planet formation. We performed long-exposure thermal inf…
Evidence that the Directly-Imaged Planet HD 131399 Ab is a Background Star
Eric L. Nielsen, Robert J. De Rosa, Julien Rameau +55
We present evidence that the recently discovered, directly-imaged planet HD 131399 Ab is a background star with non-zero proper motion. From new JHK1L' photometry and spectroscopy…
The Performance of the Robo-AO Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics System at the Kitt Peak 2.1-m Telescope
Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Dmitry A. Duev, Reed Riddle +5
Robo-AO is an autonomous laser guide star adaptive optics system recently commissioned at the Kitt Peak 2.1-m telescope. Now operating every clear night, Robo-AO at the 2.1-m teles…
