... Research . ... GPI Data Pipeline . ... GPI . ... My research focuses on high contrast imaging of circumstellar material: disks, envelopes, jets, and substellar companions. ... The second, harder challenge is achieving sufficiently high contrast: scattered light from circumstellar dust is faint, usually less than a percent of the total flux, sometimes far less. ... In addition to planet detection, GPI will also feature a polarimetric imaging mode for studies of circumstellar dust disks. ...

This process is thought to occur in circumstellar disks of gas and dust around young stars on rather short timescales : infrared surveys show that the number of low mass stars with disks drops dramatically for stars older than 10 Myr, suggesting that in order to form large solids before the disk disperses, the growth process has to take place within a few million years. ...
