We report the discovery of a debris system associated with the Myr old G3/5V star HD 12039 using {\it Spitzer Space Telescope} observations from 3.6 -- 160m. An observ…
XMM-NEWTON Observations of Red AGN
B. J. Wilkes, K. A. Pounds, G. D. Schmidt +5
XMM-Newton spectra of five red, 2MASS AGN, selected from a sample observed by Chandra to be relatively X-ray bright and to cover a range of hardness ratios, confirm the presence of…
3-D Models of Embedded High-Mass Stars: Effects of a Clumpy Circumstellar Medium
R. Indebetouw, B. A. Whitney, K. E. Johnson +1
We use 3-D radiative transfer models to show the effects of clumpy circumstellar material on the observed infrared colors of high mass stars embedded in molecular clouds. We highli…
Observational Properties of Proto-planetary Disk Gaps
Peggy Varniere, J. E. Bjorkman, Adam Frank Alice C. Quillen +3
We study the effects of an annular gap induced by an embedded proto-planet on disk scattered light images and the infrared spectral energy distribution. We find that the outer edge…
First GLIMPSE Results on the Stellar Structure of the Galaxy
Robert A. Benjamin, E. Churchwell, B. L. Babler +19
The GLIMPSE (Galactic Legacy Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire) Point Source Catalog of ~ 30 million mid-infrared sources towards the inner Galaxy, 10 < |l| < 65 degrees and |b| < 1…
Discovery of a Nearly Edge-On Disk Around HD 32297
Glenn Schneider, Murray D. Silverstone, Dean C. Hines
We report the discovery of a nearly edge-on disk about the A0 star HD 32297 seen in light scattered by the disk grains revealed in NICMOS PSF-subtracted coronagraphic images. The d…
Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems: Placing Our Solar System in Context with Spitzer
Michael R. Meyer, the FEPS Legacy Science Team
We summarize the progress to date of our Legacy Science Program entitled "The Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems" (FEPS) based on observations obtained with the Spitzer S…
Spitzer Observations of G Dwarfs in the Pleiades: Circumstellar Debris Disks at 100 Myr Age
J. R. Stauffer, L. Rebull, J. Carpenter +12
Fluxes and upper limits in the wavelength range from 3.6 to 70 microns from the Spitzer Space Telescope are provided for twenty solar-mass Pleiades members. One of these stars show…
Variation in the Scattering Shroud Surrounding Markarian 231
S. C. Gallagher, Gary D. Schmidt, Paul S. Smith +5
We present a detailed study of the nuclear structure of the highly polarized broad absorption line quasar, Mrk 231, through a multiwavelength campaign of Chandra observations, opti…
2-D and 3-D Radiation Transfer Models of High-Mass Star Formation
Barbara A. Whitney, Thomas P. Robitaille, Remy Indebetouw +3
2-D and 3-D radiation transfer models of forming stars generally produce bluer 1-10 micron colors than 1-D models of the same evolutionary state and envelope mass. Therefore, 1-D m…
Infrared luminosity functions from the Chandra Deep Field South : the Spitzer view on the history of dusty star formation at 0<z<1
E. Le Floc'h, C. Papovich, H. Dole +14
We analyze a sample of ~2600 MIPS/Spitzer 24mic sources brighter than ~80muJy and located in the Chandra Deep Field South to characterize the evolution of the comoving infrared (IR…
