A Wolf 359 in Sheep's Clothing: Hunting for Substellar Companions in the Fifth-closest System Using Combined High-contrast Imaging and Radial Velocity Analysis

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Wolf 359 (CN Leo, GJ 406, Gaia DR3 3864972938605115520) is a low-mass star in the fifth-closest neighboring system (2.41 pc). Because of its relative youth and proximity, Wolf 359 offers a unique opportunity to study substellar companions around M stars ...

JWST/NIRCam Coronagraphy of the Young Planet-hosting Debris Disk AU Microscopii

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
High-contrast imaging of debris disk systems permits us to assess the composition and size distribution of circumstellar dust, to probe recent dynamical histories, and to directly detect and characterize embedded exoplanets. Observations of these systems

High contrast imaging with the JWST NIRCAM coronagraph [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2005
Relative to ground-based telescopes, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will have a substantial sensitivity advantage in the 2.2-5pm wavelength range where brown dwarfs and hot Jupiters are thought to have significant brightness enhancements. To facilitate high contrast imaging within this band, the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCAM) will employ a Lyot ...

Sequential coronagraphic low-order wavefront control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Coronagraphs are highly sensitive to wavefront errors, with performance degrading rapidly in the presence of low-order aberrations. Correcting these aberrations at the coronagraphic focal plane is key to optimal performance.

XAO coronagraphy with the High-Order Test bench

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
Extreme adaptive optics systems dedicated to the search for extra solar planets are currently being developed for 8–10 meter class telescopes. The High-Order Test bench (HOT) is a high-contrast imaging adaptive optics bench developed at ESO.

Coronagraphic Imaging of 3C 273 with the Advanced Camera for Surveys

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2003
The nearby and luminous QSO 3C 273 was imaged in 2002 July with the High Resolution Channel (HRC) of the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) in coronagraphic mode in F475W (g), F606W (V), and F814W (I) as part of the Early Release Observations (ERO) program.

On Some Properties of SEP Effective CMEs

open access: yesInternational Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
Solar energetic particles (SEP) are believed to originate from two different sources, solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). The large SEP events constitute a serious radiation hazard. The high‐energy solar proton data obtained from NOAA Space Environment Services Center are used to investigate some statistical properties such as speed ...

Post-coronagraphic PSF sharpening with the vortex coronagraph [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Small-angle coronagraphs are key components for future instruments being developed for the ELTs. Because they deliver high contrast capabilities at small angular separations from the host star, they enable us to address by direct imaging one of the most ...

Disk Evolution Study Through Imaging of Nearby Young Stars (DESTINYS): Dynamical Evidence of a Spiral-Arm-Driving and Gap-Opening Protoplanet from SAO 206462 Spiral Motion

open access: yesUniverse
In the early stages of planetary system formation, young exoplanets gravitationally interact with their surrounding environments and leave observable signatures on protoplanetary disks.

Video-rate or high-precision: A flexible range imaging camera [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A range imaging camera produces an output similar to a digital photograph, but every pixel in the image contains distance information as well as intensity.
