Scientific paper

We present the first high contrast imaging results using speckle suppression techniques on OSIRIS integral field spectrograph (IFS) data. OSIRIS is a lenslet-based IFS that operates behind the Keck II adaptive optics (AO) system. This instrument has a spectral resolution of 3800 and diffraction limited sampling over a small, rectangular field of view. The integral field nature of OSIRIS can be used in high contrast observations to monitor the PSF over a full broad band filter and suppress some diffraction features that commonly mask faint point source detections. We employ speckle and spectral suppression techniques to search for non-stellar (brown dwarf and planetary) companions in the halos of nearby, young stars.
