Direct imaging discovery of 12-14 Jupiter mass object orbiting a young binary system of very low-mass stars

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the direct imaging discovery of 2MASS J01033563-5515561(AB)b, a 12-14 MJup companion at a projected separation of 84 AU from a pair of young late M stars.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

OSIRIS: infrared integral field spectrograph for the Keck adaptive optics system

TL;DR: The OSIRIS project as discussed by the authors uses an infrared transmissive lenslet array to sample a rectangular field of view at close to the Keck diffraction limit, achieving a relatively large field-of-view (FOV) while maintaining full broad-band spectral coverage at a resolution of 3900.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Data reduction pipeline for OSIRIS, the new NIR diffraction-limited imaging field spectrograph for the Keck adaptive optics system

TL;DR: OSIRIS as discussed by the authors is a near infrared diffraction limited imaging field spectrometer under development for the Keck observatory adaptive optics system and a data reduction software package is under development, aiming to provide the observer with a facility instrument allowing him to concentrate on science rather than dealing with instrumental as well as telescope and atmosphere related effects.

Planetary System and Star Formation Science with Non-Redundant Masking on JWST

TL;DR: Non-redundant masking (NRM) is a high contrast high resolution technique that is relevant for future space missions dedicated to either general astrophysics or extrasolar planetary astronomy.
