Improved Neutron-Capture Element Abundances in Planetary Nebulae

N. C. Sterling, H. L. Dinerstein, S. Hwang +11

Spectroscopy of planetary nebulae (PNe) provides the means to investigate s-process enrichments of neutron(n)-capture elements that cannot be detected in asymptotic giant branch (A…

Kinematics of Stars in Kapteyn Selected Area 71: Sampling the Monoceros and Sagittarius Tidal Streams

Dana I. Casetti-Dinescu, Jeffrey L. Carlin, Terrence M. Girard +3

We present a 3D kinematical analysis of stars located in Kapteyn Selected Area 71 (l = 167.1, b = -34.7), where previously a stellar excess was found (Dinescu et al. 2002, Newberg…

Reflected Light from Sand Grains in the Terrestrial Zone of a Protoplanetary Disk

William Herbst, Catrina M. Hamilton, Katherine LeDuc +4

We show that grains have grown to ~mm size (sand sized) or larger in the terrestrial zone (within ~3 AU) of the protoplanetary disk surrounding the 3 Myr old binary star KH 15D. We…

HI content and other structural properties of galaxies in the Virgo cluster from the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey

Giuseppe Gavazzi, Riccardo Giovanelli, Martha P. Haynes +8

We report the results of an HI blind survey of 80deg^2 of the Virgo cluster, based on the 08deg < delta < 16 deg strip of ALFALFA, the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey. 187 HI sourc…
