Abstract

To make the most of the Keck LGS time, we are requesting 4 hours of Gemini NIRI time in NGS AO mode to observe a handful of the brightest, mV < 13, Kepler Objects of Interest that have low-significance detections of stellar companions as discovered by our Robo-AO survey (Law et al. 2014. 2014ApJ...791...35L, Baranec et al., in prep.). All objects have an RA of 18:40 to 20:10, ideally observed in June/July.
