Over the last two decades, several thousand exoplanets have been identified, and their
study has become a high scientific priority. Direct imaging of nearby exoplanets and the …

High-contrast adaptive optics (AO) imaging is a powerful technique to probe the
architectures of planetary systems from the outside-in and survey the atmospheres of self …

We present a kinematic analysis of 152 low surface gravity M7-L8 dwarfs by adding 18 new
parallaxes (including 10 for comparative field objects), 38 new radial velocities, and 19 new …

We present the results of a near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic follow-up survey of 182 M4–L7
low-mass stars and brown dwarfs (BDs) from the BANYAN All-Sky Survey (BASS) for …

Abstract Using Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer high-resolution (R∼ 35,000)
spectroscopy from 2.29 to 2.49 μm, we present uniform atmospheric retrievals for eight …

The connection between the nature of a protoplanetary disk and that of a debris disk is not
well understood. Dust evolution, planet formation, and disk dissipation likely play a role in …

The orientation between a star's spin axis and a planet's orbital plane provides valuable
information about the system's formation and dynamical history. For non-transiting planets at …

The carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio in an exoplanet atmosphere has been suggested as a
potential diagnostic of planet formation. Now that a number of exoplanets have measured …

We have refined the census of stars and brown dwarfs in the Upper Sco association (∼ 10
Myr,∼ 145 pc) by (1) updating the selection of candidate members from our previous survey …

Abstract The TMT Detailed Science Case describes the transformational science that the
Thirty Meter Telescope will enable. Planned to begin science operations in 2024, TMT will …
