Asteroid-Comet Continuum Objects in the Solar System
Henry H. Hsieh
In this review presented at the Royal Society meeting, "Cometary Science After Rosetta", I present an overview of studies of small solar system objects that exhibit properties of b…
Near-Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of Inner Region of GG Tau A Disk
Yi Yang, Jun Hashimoto, Saeko S. Hayashi +51
By performing non-masked polarization imaging with Subaru/HiCIAO, polarized scattered light from the inner region of the disk around the GG Tau A system was successfully detected i…
Slowly-growing gap-opening planets trigger weaker vortices
Michael Hammer, Kaitlin M. Kratter, Min-Kai Lin
The presence of a giant planet in a low-viscosity disc can create a gap edge in the disc's radial density profile sharp enough to excite the Rossby Wave Instability. This instabili…
Super-Earths as Failed Cores in Orbital Migration Traps
Yasuhiro Hasegawa
We explore whether close-in super-Earths were formed as rocky bodies that failed to grow fast enough to become the cores of gas giants before the natal protostellar disk dispersed.…
The Pan-STARRS 1 Discoveries of five new Neptune Trojans
Hsing Wen Lin, Ying-Tung Chen, Matthew J. Holman +16
In this work we report the detection of seven Neptune Trojans (NTs) in the Pan-STARRS 1 (PS1) survey. Five of these are new discoveries, consisting of four L4 Trojans and one L5 Tr…
Discovery of A New Retrograde Trans-Neptunian Object: Hint of A Common Orbital Plane for Low Semi-Major Axis, High Inclination TNOs and Centaurs
Ying-Tung Chen, Hsing Wen Lin, Matthew J. Holman +14
Although the majority of Centaurs are thought to have originated in the scattered disk, with the high-inclination members coming from the Oort cloud, the origin of the high inclina…
A Substellar Companion to Pleiades HII 3441
Mihoko Konishi, Taro Matsuo, Kodai Yamamoto +55
We find a new substellar companion to the Pleiades member star, Pleiades HII 3441, using the Subaru telescope with adaptive optics. The discovery is made as part of the high-contra…
Spiral Structure and Differential Dust Size Distribution in the LkHa 330 Disk
E. Akiyama, J. Hashimoto, H. B. Liu +58
Dust trapping accelerates the coagulation of dust particles, and thus it represents an initial step toward the formation of planetesimals. We report -band (1.6 um) linear polari…
OSSOS: IV. Discovery of a dwarf planet candidate in the 9:2 resonance with Neptune
Michele T. Bannister, Mike Alexandersen, Susan D. Benecchi +32
We report the discovery and orbit of a new dwarf planet candidate, 2015 RR, by the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS). 2015 RR's orbit is eccentric ($e=0.586…
Polarimetry and flux distribution in the debris disk around HD 32297
R. Asensio-Torres, M. Janson, J. Hashimoto +49
We present high-contrast angular differential imaging (ADI) observations of the debris disk around HD 32297 in H-band, as well as the first polarimetric images for this system in p…
Ultraharmonics and Secondary Spiral Wakes Induced by a Planet
Wing-Kit Lee
We investigate the ultraharmonics response of a protoplanetary disk to an orbiting planet. We find that the multi-armed spiral structure can be excited by the higher-order forcing…
Interpreting the Densities of the Kuiper Belt's Dwarf Planets
Amy C. Barr, Megan E. Schwamb
Kuiper Belt objects with absolute magnitude less than 3 (radius 500 km), the dwarf planets, have a range of different ice/rock ratios, and are more rock-rich than their sm…
Potential Jupiter-Family Comet Contamination of the Main Asteroid Belt
Henry H. Hsieh, Nader Haghighipour
We present the results of "snapshot" numerical integrations of test particles representing comet-like and asteroid-like objects in the inner solar system aimed at investigating the…
OSSOS III - Resonant Trans-Neptunian Populations: Constraints from the first quarter of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey
Kathryn Volk, Ruth Murray-Clay, Brett Gladman +10
The first two observational sky "blocks" of the Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS) have significantly increased the number of well-characterized observed trans-Neptunian obj…
High-Contrast Imaging of Intermediate-Mass Giants with Long-Term Radial Velocity Trends
Tsuguru Ryu, Bun'ei Sato, Masayuki Kuzuhara +62
A radial velocity (RV) survey for intermediate-mass giants has been operated for over a decade at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (OAO). The OAO survey has revealed that some gia…
The SEEDS High Contrast Imaging Survey of Exoplanets around Young Stellar Objects
Taichi Uyama, Jun Hashimoto, Masayuki Kuzuhara +49
We present high-contrast observations of 68 young stellar objects (YSOs) explored as part of the SEEDS survey on the Subaru telescope. Our targets are very young (10 Myr) stars,…
Gas Gaps in the Protoplanetary Disk around the Young Protostar HL Tau
Hsi-Wei Yen, Hauyu Baobab Liu, Pin-Gao Gu +4
We have analyzed the HCO+ (1-0) data of the Class I-II protostar, HL Tau, obtained from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array long baseline campaign. We generated the HC…
Planet Hunters X: Searching for Nearby Neighbors of 75 Planet and Eclipsing Binary Candidates from the K2 Kepler Extended Mission
Joseph R. Schmitt, Andrei Tokovinin, Ji Wang +22
We present high-resolution observations of a sample of 75 K2 targets from Campaigns 1-3 using speckle interferometry on the Southern Astrophysical Research (SOAR) telescope and ada…
Understanding discs in binary YSOs: detailed modelling of VV CrA
P. Scicluna, S. Wolf, T. Ratzka +6
Given that a majority of stars form in multiple systems, in order to fully understand the star- and planet-formation processes we must seek to understand them in multiple stellar s…
Near-Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of LkCa 15: A Possible Warped Inner Disk
Daehyeon Oh, Jun Hashimoto, Motohide Tamura +48
We present high-contrast H-band polarized intensity images of the transitional disk around the young solar-like star LkCa 15. By utilizing Subaru/HiCIAO for polarimetric differenti…
