Optical Images of an Exosolar Planet 25 Light-Years from Earth

TL;DR: Optical observations of an exoplanet candidate, Fomalhaut b, show that the planet's mass is at most three times that of Jupiter; a higher mass would lead to gravitational disruption of the belt, matching predictions of its location.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Design and development of NIRSPEC: a near-infrared echelle spectrograph for the Keck II telescope

TL;DR: The NIRSPEC, a near-IR echelle spectrograph for the Keck II 10-meter telescope is described in this paper, which employs diamond-machined metal optics and state-of-the-art IR array detectors for high throughput and powerful user-friendly software for ease of use.
Journal ArticleDOI

First light of the Gemini Planet Imager

TL;DR: Observations ofBeta Pictoris clearly detect the planet, Beta Pictoris b, in a single 60-s exposure with minimal postprocessing, and fitting the Keplerian orbit of Beta Pic b using the new position together with previous astrometry gives a factor of 3 improvement in most parameters over previous solutions.

Discovery and spectroscopy of the young Jovian planet 51 Eri b with the Gemini Planet Imager

Bruce Macintosh, +94 more
- 02 Oct 2015 - 
TL;DR: Using the Gemini Planet Imager, a Jupiter-like planet is discovered orbiting the ~20-million-year-old star 51 Eridani at a projected separation of 13 astronomical units and has a methane signature and is probably the smallest exoplanet that has been directly imaged.
Journal ArticleDOI

A planetary system as the origin of structure in Fomalhaut's dust belt

TL;DR: The sharp inner edge and offset demonstrate the presence of planetary-mass objects orbiting Fomalhaut, demonstrating the structure of a dusty disk modified by the gravitational influence of planets.
