The Frequency of Warm Debris Disks and Transition Disks in a Complete Sample of Intermediate-Mass GLIMPSE Stars: Placing Constraints on Disk Lifetimes

B. Uzpen, H. A. Kobulnicky, K. Kinemuchi

The incidence of dusty debris disks around low- and intermediate-mass stars has been investigated numerous times in order to understand the early stages of planet formation. Most n…

A likely optical counterpart of the G292.0+1.8 pulsar wind nebula

S. V. Zharikov, Yu. A. Shibanov, D. A. Zyuzin +2

G292.0+1.8 is the Cas A-like supernova remnant containing the young pulsar PSR J1124-5916, which powers a compact torus-like pulsar wind nebula with a jet visible in X-rays. We hav…

Optical and near-IR photometric study of the open cluster NGC 637 and NGC 957

R. K. S. Yadav, Brijesh Kumar, A. Subramaniam +2

We present UBVRI CCD photometry in the region of the open clusters NGC 637 and NGC 957. The radii are found to be 4.2 arcmin and 4.3 arcmin. Their reddenings E(B-V) are 0.64+/-0.05…

Microlensing Event MOA-2007-BLG-400: Exhuming the Buried Signature of a Cool, Jovian-Mass Planet

Subo Dong, I. A. Bond, A. Gould +55

We report the detection of the cool, Jovian-mass planet MOA-2007-BLG-400Lb. The planet was detected in a high-magnification microlensing event (with peak magnification A_max = 628)…
