Spitzer Spectroscopy of the Circumprimary Disk in the Binary Brown Dwarf 2MASS J04414489+2301513
Lucia Adame, Nuria Calvet, K. L. Luhman +6
Using the Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph, we have performed mid-infrared spectroscopy on the young binary brown dwarf 2MASS J04414489+2301513 (15 AU) in the Taurus star-forming regi…
Thermo-physical properties of 162173 (1999 JU3), a potential flyby and rendezvous target for interplanetary missions
T. G. Mueller, J. Durech, S. Hasegawa +15
Near-Earth asteroid 162173 (1999 JU3) is a potential flyby and rendezvous target for interplanetary missions because of its easy to reach orbit. The physical and thermal properties…
On the volatile enrichments and heavy element content in HD 189733b
O. Mousis, J. I. Lunine, J. -M. Petit +13
Favored theories of giant planet formation center around two main paradigms, namely the core accretion model and the gravitational instability model. These two formation scenarios…
Interior Models of Uranus and Neptune
Ravit Helled, John D. Anderson, Morris Podolak +1
'Empirical' models (pressure vs. density) of Uranus and Neptune interiors constrained by the gravitational coefficients J_2, J_4, the planetary radii and masses, and Voyager solid-…
A collision in 2009 as the origin of the debris trail of asteroid P/2010 A2
Colin Snodgrass, Cecilia Tubiana, Jean-Baptiste Vincent +15
The peculiar object P/2010 A2 was discovered by the LINEAR near-Earth asteroid survey in January 2010 and given a cometary designation due to the presence of a trail of material, a…
Radio Observations of HD 80606 Near Planetary Periastron
T. J. W. Lazio, P. D. Shankland, W. M. Farrell +1
This paper reports Very Large Array observations at 325 and 1425 MHz (90cm and 20cm) during and near the periastron passage of HD 80606b on 2007 November 20. We obtain flux density…
The PHASES Differential Astrometry Data Archive. III. Limits to Tertiary Companions
Matthew W. Muterspaugh, Benjamin F. Lane, S. R. Kulkarni +4
The Palomar High-precision Astrometric Search for Exoplanet Systems (PHASES) monitored 51 subarcsecond binary systems to evaluate whether tertiary companions as small as Jovian pla…
The Structure of the β Leonis Debris Disk
Nathan D. Stock, Kate Y. L. Su, Wilson Liu +6
We combine nulling interferometry at 10 μm using the MMT and Keck Telescopes with spectroscopy, imaging, and photometry from 3 to 100 μm using Spitzer to study the debris disk arou…
First Earth-based Detection of a Superbolide on Jupiter
R. Hueso, A. Wesley, C. Go +14
Cosmic collisions on planets cause detectable optical flashes that range from terrestrial shooting stars to bright fireballs. On June 3, 2010 a bolide in Jupiter's atmosphere was s…
Characterizing the Variability of Stars with Early-Release Kepler Data
David R. Ciardi, Kaspar von Braun, Geoff Bryden +6
We present a variability analysis of the early-release first quarter of data publicly released by the Kepler project. Using the stellar parameters from the Kepler Input Catalog, we…
Near-Infrared Spectroscopy of the Extrasolar Planet HR 8799 b
Brendan P. Bowler, Michael C. Liu, Trent J. Dupuy +1
[Abridged] We present 2.12-2.23 um high contrast integral field spectroscopy of the extrasolar planet HR 8799 b. Our observations were obtained with OSIRIS on the Keck II telescope…
Detecting Oceans on Extrasolar Planets Using the Glint Effect
Tyler D. Robinson, Victoria S. Meadows, David Crisp
Glint, the specular reflection of sunlight off Earth's oceans, may reveal the presence of oceans on an extrasolar planet. As an Earth-like planet nears crescent phases, the size of…
Measuring the mass of solar system planets using pulsar timing
D. J. Champion, G. B. Hobbs, R. N. Manchester +19
High-precision pulsar timing relies on a solar-system ephemeris in order to convert times of arrival (TOAs) of pulses measured at an observatory to the solar system barycenter. Any…
Modeling Kepler transit light curves as false positives: Rejection of blend scenarios for Kepler-9, and validation of Kepler-9d, a super-Earth-size planet in a multiple system
Guillermo Torres, François Fressin, Natalie M. Batalha +26
Light curves from the Kepler Mission contain valuable information on the nature of the phenomena producing the transit-like signals. To assist in exploring the possibility that the…
