UV-Optical Emission of AB Aur b is Consistent with Scattered Stellar Light
Yifan Zhou, Brendan P. Bowler, Haifeng Yang +12
The proposed protoplanet AB Aur b is a spatially concentrated emission source imaged in the mm-wavelength disk gap of the Herbig Ae/Be star AB Aur. Its near-infrared spectrum and a…
MagAO-X and HST high-contrast imaging of the AS209 disk at H
Gabriele Cugno, Yifan Zhou, Thanawuth Thanathibodee +22
The detection of emission lines associated with accretion processes is a direct method for studying how and where gas giant planets form, how young planets interact with their nata…
Hotter Than Expected: HST/WFC3 Phase-resolved Spectroscopy of a Rare Irradiated Brown Dwarf with Strong Internal Heat Flux
Rachael C. Amaro, Daniel Apai, Yifan Zhou +8
With infrared flux contrasts larger than typically seen in hot Jupiter, tidally-locked white dwarf-brown dwarf binaries offer a superior opportunity to investigate atmospheric proc…
Astrometric Accelerations as Dynamical Beacons: A Giant Planet Imaged Inside the Debris Disk of the Young Star AF Lep
Kyle Franson, Brendan P. Bowler, Yifan Zhou +13
We present the direct imaging discovery of a giant planet orbiting the young star AF Lep, a 1.2 member of the 24 3 Myr Pic moving group. AF Lep was observed a…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems: Best Practices for Data Collection in Cycle 2 and Beyond
Sasha Hinkley, Beth Biller, Andrew Skemer +35
We present a set of recommended best practices for JWST data collection for members of the community focussed on the direct imaging and spectroscopy of exoplanetary systems. These…
Rotation Periods, Inclinations, and Obliquities of Cool Stars Hosting Directly Imaged Substellar Companions: Spin-Orbit Misalignments are Common
Brendan P. Bowler, Quang H. Tran, Zhoujian Zhang +10
The orientation between a star's spin axis and a planet's orbital plane provides valuable information about the system's formation and dynamical history. For non-transiting planets…
