MOA-2010-BLG-073L: An M-Dwarf with a Substellar Companion at the Planet/Brown Dwarf Boundary
R. A. Street, J. -Y. Choi, Y. Tsapras +129
We present an analysis of the anomalous microlensing event, MOA-2010-BLG-073, announced by the Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics survey on 2010-03-18. This event was remark…
On the formation and evolution of asteroid belts and their potential significance for life
Rebecca G. Martin, Mario Livio
Suggestions have been made that asteroid belts may be important both for the existence of life and perhaps even for the evolution of complex life on a planet. Using numerical model…
Measuring the Abundance of sub-kilometer sized Kuiper Belt Objects using Stellar Occultations
Hilke E. Schlichting, Eran O. Ofek, Re'em Sari +6
We present here the analysis of about 19,500 new star hours of low ecliptic latitude observations (|b| < 20 deg) obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope's FGS over a time span of mo…
Direct Imaging Confirmation and Characterization of a Dust-Enshrouded Candidate Exoplanet Orbiting Fomalhaut
Thayne Currie, John Debes, Timothy J. Rodigas +6
We present Subaru/IRCS J band data for Fomalhaut and a (re)reduction of archival 2004--2006 HST/ACS data first presented by Kalas et al. (2008). We confirm the existence of a candi…
The Discovery of HD 37605c and a Dispositive Null Detection of Transits of HD 37605b
Sharon Xuesong Wang, Jason T. Wright, William Cochran +15
We report the radial-velocity discovery of a second planetary mass companion to the K0 V star HD 37605, which was already known to host an eccentric, P~55 days Jovian planet, HD 37…
Mapping Directly Imaged Giant Exoplanets
Veselin B. Kostov, Dániel Apai
With the increasing number of directly imaged giant exoplanets the current atmosphere models are often not capable of fully explaining the spectra and luminosity of the sources. A…
