  1. 1. High-contrast imaging of low-mass companions and debris disks

    Författare :Ruben Asensio Torres; Markus Janson; Subhanjoy Mohanty; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Direct imaging; extrasolar planets; debris disks; planet formation; high angular resolution; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : The search for exoplanets, i.e., planets orbiting other stars than the Sun, is a relatively new research field, but has already established itself as one of the most prolific and intriguing areas of astronomy. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Characterising Emblematic Binaries at the Lowest Stellar and Substellar Masses

    Författare :Per Calissendorff; Markus Janson; Koraljka Mužić; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; astrometry; binaries; brown dwarfs; low-mass stars; multiplicity; substellar; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : Stars are involved in most research fields of astronomy, ranging from studies of faraway galaxies, exploding supernovae, to more nearby exoplanets and even our own Sun. As such, it is paramount that our physical interpretation of stars is accurate. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Characterising Young Stellar Binaries

    Författare :Per Calissendorff; Markus Janson; Eric Stempels; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Binaries; stellar ages; multiplicity; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : Stars are dispersed all over the sky within our Galaxy, appearing in large varieties of ages and sizes. How- ever, estimating said traits proves not to always be trivial, but certain circumstances allow us to probe the characteristics of stellar binaries. LÄS MER

  4. 4. High-Contrast Investigation of the ε Ind system

    Författare :Gayathri Viswanath; Markus Janson; Alexis Brandeker; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis provides a broad introduction into the methodology of detecting and characterising exoplanets, with the main focus on the method of high-contrast imaging (HCI). Developments in theoretical knowledge as well as instrumentation have, in the past decade, pushed the boundaries of what HCI can achieve, both in terms of detection sensitivity and constraining planet properties.
