Dust-trapping vortices and a potentially planet-triggered spiral wake in the pre-transitional disk of V1247 Orionis

Stefan Kraus, Alexander Kreplin, Misato Fukagawa +8

The radial drift problem constitutes one of the most fundamental problems in planet formation theory, as it predicts particles to drift into the star before they are able to grow t…

Variable dynamics in the inner disk of HD 135344B revealed with multi-epoch scattered light imaging

Tomas Stolker, Mike Sitko, Bernard Lazareff +12

We present multi-epoch VLT/SPHERE observations of the protoplanetary disk around HD 135344B (SAO 206462). The -band scattered light imagery reveal, with high spatial resolution…

On the inner disk structure of MWC480: evidence for asymmetries?

Narges Jamialahmadi, Bruno Lopez, Philippe Berio +7

Studying the physical conditions structuring the young circumstellar disks is required for understanding the onset of planet formation. Of particular interest is the protoplanetary…

Infrared Spectroscopy of HR 4796A's Bright Outer Cometary Ring + Tenuous Inner Hot Dust Cloud

Carey M. Lisse, Mike L. Sitko, Massimo Marengo +4

We have obtained new NASA IRTF SpeX spectra of the HR 4796A debris ring system. We find a unique red excess flux that extends out to ~9 um in Spitzer IRS spectra, where thermal emi…

The Fundamental Stellar Parameters of FGK Stars in the SEEDS Survey

Evan A. Rich, John P. Wisniewski, Michael W. McElwain +59

Large exoplanet surveys have successfully detected thousands of exoplanets to-date. Utilizing these detections and non-detections to constrain our understanding of the formation an…

Spectral Evidence for an Inner Carbon-Rich Circumstellar Dust Belt in the Young HD36546 A-Star System

Carey M. Lisse, Mike L. Sitko, Ray W. Russell +5

Using the NASA/IRTF SpeX & BASS spectrometers we have obtained novel 0.7 - 13 um observations of the newly imaged HD36546 debris disk system. The SpeX spectrum is most consistent w…
