TL;DR: In this article, the spectral energy distribution (SED) of a young giant exoplanet was measured empirically and the luminosity of the planet was calculated using a blackbody.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The first ground-based CCD image of an extrasolar giant planet (EGP) was presented in this article, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 4.1, with an empirically estimated upper limit on false alarm probability of 1.0%.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the S-band radar at Arecibo Observatory to observe 16 Psyche, the largest M-class asteroid in the main belt, and combined these with 16 continuous wave runs from 2005 and 6 recent adaptive-optics (AO) images to generate a 3D shape model of Psyche.

TL;DR: The first ground-based CCD (λ < 1 μm) image of an extrasolar giant planet β Pictoris b was presented in this paper, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 4.1 with an empirically estimated upper limit on false alarm probability of 1.0%.

TL;DR: In this paper, a matched-filter algorithm for direct detection of point sources in the immediate vicinity of bright stars is presented, where the stellar point spread function (PSF) is first subtracted using a Karhunen-Loeve image processing (KLIP) algorithm with angular and spectral differential imaging (ADI and SDI).
