The VIIth catalogue of galactic PopulationI Wolf–Rayet stars provides improved coordinates,
spectral types and bv photometry of known WR stars and adds 71 new WR stars to the …

To understand how planetary systems form in the dusty disks around pre-main-sequence
stars, a detailed knowledge of the structure and evolution of these disks is required …

Abstract The Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme Adaptive Optics (SCExAO) instrument is a
multipurpose high-contrast imaging platform designed for the discovery and detailed …

Transitional disks are objects whose inner disk regions have undergone substantial
clearing. The Spitzer Space Telescope produced detailed spectral energy distributions …

Young and directly imaged exoplanets offer critical tests of planet-formation models that are
not matched by radial velocity surveys of mature stars. These targets have been extremely …

We have conducted a high-resolution imaging study of the Taurus–Auriga star-forming
region in order to characterize the primordial outcome of multiple star formation and the …

The dynamical influence of binary companions is expected to profoundly influence planetary
systems. However, the difficulty of identifying planets in binary systems has left the …

The direct characterization of exoplanetary systems with high-contrast imaging is among the
highest priorities for the broader exoplanet community. As large space missions will be …

Here I review the current state of the field of optical stellar interferometry, concentrating on
ground-based work although a brief report of space interferometry missions is included. We …

Entangled states are central to quantum information processing, including quantum
teleportation, efficient quantum computation and quantum cryptography. In general, these …
