Abstract

We present new $L^\prime$ (3.8 $μ m$) and Br-$α$ (4.05 $μ m$) data and reprocessed archival $L^\prime$ data for the young, planet-hosting star HR 8799 obtained with Keck/NIRC2, VLT/NaCo and Subaru/IRCS. We detect all four HR 8799 planets in each dataset at a moderate to high signal-to-noise (SNR $\gtrsim$ 6-15). We fail to identify a fifth planet, "HR 8799 f", at $r$ $
