    Exoplanet Direct Imaging


  • Discovery of HIP 99770 b: the first joint direct imaging and astrometric discovery of an extrasolar planet
  • Discovery of AB Aurigae b: directly-imaged protoplanet: evidence for planet formation by disk instability
  • Discovery of HIP 54515 b: the third joint direct imaging and astrometric discovery of an extrasolar planet, first from OASIS program
  • Laboratory demonstration of Spatial Linear Dark Field Control at contrasts needed to image planets in reflected light
  • Discovery of Directly-Imaged Planets around ROXs 42Bb and kappa And b (confirmed here); refutation of the claimed protoplanets around LkCa 15

  • Discovery of a Candidate Directly-Imaged Protoplanet around HD 100546 (HD 100546 c)
  • Confirmation of a Directly-Imaged Planets Around HD 95086
  • Young Directly-Imaged Planets have Thicker Clouds than Field Brown Dwarfs of the Same Temperatures

     Other
  • Evidence for Planet-Induced Structure in Transitional Protoplanetary Disks (here and here)
  • Limits on the Formation Timescale for Gas Giant Planets + New Constraints on the Duration of the Transitional Disk Phase: here, here, and here
  • Debris Disk Evolution: primarily here
