The Apparent Absence of Forward Scattering in the HD 53143 Debris Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
HD 53143 is a mature Sun-like star and host to a broad disk of dusty debris, including a cold outer ring of planetesimals near 90 au. Unlike most other inclined debris disks imaged at visible wavelengths, the cold disk around HD 53143 appears as ...

The subaru coronagraphic extreme AO (SCExAO) system: Wavefront control and detection of exoplanets with coherent light modulation in the focal plane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme-AO (SCExAO) system is designed for high contrast coronagraphic imaging at small angular separations, and is scheduled to see first light on the Subam Telescope in early 2011.

Variability in the Propagation Characteristics of Small Transients in the Near-Sun Solar Wind Identified by the CORAR Technique

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using the Correlation-Aided Reconstruction (CORAR) technique, we identified a population of small transient structures in the near-Sun solar wind observed by the white-light coronagraphs on board STEREO between 2009 December and 2010 September.

Coronagraphic Data Post-processing Using Projections on Instrumental Modes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Directly observing exoplanets with coronagraphs is impeded by the presence of speckles from aberrations in the optical path, which can be mitigated in hardware with wave front control, as well as in post-processing. This work explores using an instrument

Coronagraphic Imaging with HST and STIS

open access: yes, 2002
Revealing faint circumstellar nebulosity and faint stellar or substellar companions to bright stars typically requires use of techniques for rejecting the direct, scattered, and diffracted light of the star. One such technique is Lyot coronagraphy.

A Survey of Protoplanetary Disks Using the Keck/NIRC2 Vortex Coronagraph

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Recent Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of protoplanetary disks in the millimeter continuum have shown a variety of radial gaps, cavities, and spiral features.

Direct Measurement of Extinction in a Planet-hosting Gap

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Recent disk observations have revealed multiple indirect signatures of forming gas giant planets, but high-contrast imaging has rarely confirmed the presence of the suspected perturbers.

The James Webb Space Telescope Absolute Flux Calibration. VI. Near-infrared Camera Imaging and Coronagraphy

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present an updated flux calibration for all imaging modes of the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on JWST that converts instrumental units to physical surface brightness units of MJy sr ^−1 .
