7 NICMOS CORONAGRAPHIC SURVEY OF 116 NEARBY (20 - 100 pc from Earth) YOUNG (a few million to ~ 100 million years) STARS & BROWN DWARFS STARTED JULY, 2004 (HST cycle 13) Identifying individual EGP candidates for astrometric, photometric, spectroscopic follow-up.

39 The 2M1207 System MASS(A) ~ 25 M jup, MASS(b) < ~ 5 M jup Model Dependent: Burrows et al 1997, Chabrier et al 2000, Baraffe et al 2001 2M1207A mass derived from surface gravity from spectral line shapes (Mohantey et al 2003*) with distance and T eff get luminosity and radius. Distance uncertain by ~ 30% (70 ± 20 pc). Need trigonometric parallax! How “GOOD” are Non-Dynamical Mass Estimates? (Corollary: How “good” are the models?) *For upper Sco Baraffe may overestimate mass, so 2M1207b < 5 M jup ? AB Dor. Models suggest BD mass. Close et al (2005) dynamical observations suggests models underestimate substellar masses. AB Dor at Stellar/BD boundary. Gabor/Mohantey suggest models will underestimate masses in that domain but may overestimate planetary masses.

40 The 2M1207 System MASS(A) ~ 25 M jup, MASS(b) < ~ 5 M jup Model Dependent: Burrows et al 1997, Chabrier et al 2000, Baraffe et al 2001 a min ~ 40 AU*, P min ~ 1500 yr * for 52 pc HST/NICMOS differential astrometric precison ~ 2 mas. Annual measures with 1  precision w.r.t. orbital motion.
