The detection of satellites around extrasolar planets, so called exomoons, remains a largely
unexplored territory. In this work, we study the potential of detecting these elusive objects …

Abstract Using the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer, we obtained high-resolution (R∼
35,000) K-band spectra of the four planets orbiting HR 8799. We clearly detected H 2 O and …

Photonic technologies offer numerous functionalities that can be used to realize
astrophotonic instruments. The most spectacular example to date is the ESO Gravity …

The four directly imaged planets orbiting the star HR 8799 are an ideal laboratory to probe
atmospheric physics and formation models. We present more than a decade's worth of …

High-contrast medium resolution spectroscopy has been used to detect molecules such as
water and carbon monoxide in the atmospheres of gas giant exoplanets. In this work, we …

We present the projected rotational velocity and molecular abundances for HD 33632 Ab
obtained via Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) high-resolution spectroscopy. HD …

The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) is a purpose-built instrument to
demonstrate technological and instrumental concepts initially developed for the exoplanet …

ABSTRACT 51 Eri b is one of the only young planets consistent with a wide range of
possible initial entropy states, including the cold-start scenario associated with some models …

Vortex fiber nulling (VFN) is a single-aperture interferometric technique for detecting and
characterizing exoplanets separated from their host star by less than a diffracted beam …

Instrumentation designed to characterize potentially habitable planets may combine
adaptive optics and high-resolution spectroscopy techniques to achieve the highest possible …
