The DIRTY Model II: Self-Consistent Treatment of Dust Heating and Emission in a 3-D Radiative Transfer Code

K. A. Misselt, K. D. Gordon, G. C. Clayton +1

In this paper and a companion paper we present the DIRTY model, a Monte Carlo radiative transfer code, self-consistently including dust heating and emission, and accounting for the…

A Luminous Infrared Companion in the Young Triple System WL 20

Michael E. Ressler, Mary Barsony

We present spatially resolved near-infrared and mid-infrared (1-25 microns) imaging of the WL 20 triple system in the nearby (d=125 pc) rho Ophiuchi star-forming cloud core. We fin…

Optical Variability of the T Tauri Star HH30

Kenneth Wood, Scott Wolk, K. Z. Stanek +4

We report results of VRI photometric monitoring of the T Tauri star plus disk system HH30. We find that HH30 is highly variable over timescales of a few days with Delta V~1.5 mag,…

Photometric Light Curves and Polarization of Close-in Extrasolar Giant Planets

S. Seager, B. A. Whitney, D. D. Sasselov

The close-in extrasolar giant planets [CEGPs], $\ltorder$ 0.05 AU from their parent stars, may have a large component of optically reflected light. We present theoretical optical p…

Magellanic-Cloud-Type Interstellar Dust Along Low Density Sightlines in the Galaxy

Geoffrey C. Clayton, Karl D. Gordon, Michael J. Wolff

We have studied the UV extinction properties along 30 Galactic sightlines using data from the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) archive that have never been previously exami…
