Discovering M-Dwarf Companions with STEPS (2005)
Pravdo, S. H., Shaklan, S. B., Lloyd, J., Benedict, G. F.
The Stellar Planet Survey (STEPS) is an ongoing astrometric search for giant planets and brown dwarfs around a sample of ~30 M-dwarfs. We have discovered several low-mass companions by measuring the...
Pravdo, S. H., Rabinowitz, D. L., Helin, E. F., Lawrence, K. J., Bambery, R. J., Clark, C. C., ...
The Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) system operates autonomously at the Maui Space Surveillance Site on the summit of the extinct Haleakala Volcano Crater, Hawaii. The program began in December...
Novel Wide Field-of-view Laser Retroreflector for the Space Interferometry Mission (2004)
Schmidtlin, E. G., Shaklan, S. B., Carlson, A. E.
A new type of laser retroreflector has been developed for JPL's future Space Interferometry Mission. The retroreflector consists of an assembly of prisms to form multiple hollow cornercubes. This way...
Overview of SIM wide angle astrometric system calibration strategies (2004)
Sievers, L. A., Milman, M. H., Shaklan, S. B., Korechoff, R. P., Catanzarite, J., Basdogan, I., ...
This paper summarizes two very different strategies envisioned for calibrating the systematic field dependent biases present in the Space Interferometry Mission (SIM) instrument. The Internal...

Discovery of a New Nearby Star (2003)
Teegarden, B. J., Pravdo, S. H., Hicks, M., Shaklan, S. B., Covey, K., Fraser, O., ...
We report the discovery of a nearby star with a very large proper motion of 5.06 +/- 0.03 arcsec/yr. The star is called SO025300.5+165258 and referred to herein as HPMS (high proper motion star). The...
