A Disk around the Planetary-mass Companion GSC?06214-00210?b: Clues about the Formation of Gas Giants on Wide Orbits

TL;DR: In this article, Keck OSIRIS 1.1-1.8m adaptive optics integral field spectroscopy of the planetary-mass companion to GSC 06214-00210, a member of the ~5?Myr Upper Scorpius OB association, was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

KECK LASER GUIDE STAR ADAPTIVE OPTICS MONITORING OF THE M8+L7 BINARY LHS 2397aAB: FIRST DYNAMICAL MASS BENCHMARK AT THE L/T TRANSITION* ** ** * ** * *

TL;DR: In this article, Keck LGS AO imaging and aperture masking observations of the M8+L7 binary LHS 2397aAB were used to determine a total dynamical mass of 0.146+/-0.014 MSun (153+/-15 MJup).
Journal ArticleDOI

NEW EVIDENCE FOR A SUBSTELLAR LUMINOSITY PROBLEM: DYNAMICAL MASS FOR THE BROWN DWARF BINARY Gl 417BC

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present new evidence for a problem with cooling rates predicted by substellar evolutionary models that implies that model-derived masses in the literature for brown dwarfs and directly imaged planets may be too high.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sparse aperture masking at the VLT. I. Faint companion detection limits for the two debris disk stars HD 92945 and HD 141569

TL;DR: In this paper, a search for faint companions was performed using a detection strategy based on the analysis of closure phases recovered from interferograms recorded on the Conica camera, and the results demonstrate that SAM is a very competitive mode in the field of companion detection.
