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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

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

Bruce Macintosh, +94 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Gemini Planet Imager was used to detect a planet orbiting the star 51 Eridani at a projected separation of 13 astronomical units, with a spectrum with strong methane and water vapor absorption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polarimetry with the gemini planet imager: Methods, performance at first light, and the circumstellar ring around HR 4796A

Marshall D. Perrin, +50 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first results from the polarimetry mode of the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) were presented, showing that the disk exhibits surprisingly strong asymmetry in polarized intensity, with the west side 9 times brighter than the east side despite the fact that the east sides are slightly brighter in total intensity.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Gemini Planet Imager observational calibrations I: Overview of the GPI data reduction pipeline

TL;DR: This paper, the first of a series, provides a broad overview of GPI data reduction, summarizes key steps, and presents the overall software framework and implementation.
