Mining The Next Generation Of Surveys for Cool Star Science
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2008)
A number of major new and near future survey facilities are set to have a large impact on cool star science. With increased sky coverage and sensitivity over a wide wavelength range and in the time domain, a variety of new ...
A pathfinder instrument for precision radial velocities in the near-infrared
(2008)
We have designed and tested an in-plane echelle spectrograph configured to investigate precision radial velocities from ground-based near-infrared observations. The spectrograph operates across the spectral range of 0.9–1.7 ...
HD 179949b - a close orbiting extrasolar giant planet with a stratosphere?
(2008)
We have carried out a search for the 2.14-μm spectroscopic signature of the close orbiting extrasolar giant planet, HD179949b. High-cadence time-series spectra were obtained with the Cryogenic high-resolution InfraRed ´ ...
Precision Radial Velocity Spectrograph
(SPIE, 2008)
We present a conceptual design for a Precision Radial Velocity Spectrograph (PRVS) for the Gemini telescope. PRVS is a fibre fed high resolving power (R similar to 70,000 at 2.5 pixel sampling) cryogenic echelle spectrograph ...
