Debris disks around Sun-like stars
D. E. Trilling, G. Bryden, C. A. Beichman +7
We have observed nearly 200 FGK stars at 24 and 70 microns with the Spitzer Space Telescope. We identify excess infrared emission, including a number of cases where the observed fl…
An Unbiased Survey of 500 Nearby Stars for Debris Disks: A JCMT Legacy Program
B. C. Matthews, J. S. Greaves, W. S. Holland +28
We present the scientific motivation and observing plan for an upcoming detection survey for debris disks using the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. The SCUBA-2 Unbiased Nearby Stars…
Far Infrared Prperties of M Dwarfs
Thomas. N. Gautier, G. H. Rieke, John Stansberry +9
We report the mid- and far-infrared properties of nearby M dwarfs. Spitzer/MIPS measurements were obtained for a sample of 62 stars at 24 um, with subsamples of 41 and 20 stars obs…
SIM PlanetQuest Key Project Precursor Observations to Detect Gas Giant Planets Around Young Stars
Angelle Tanner, Charles Beichman, Rachel Akeson +10
We present a review of precursor observing programs for the SIM PlanetQuest Key project devoted to detecting Jupiter mass planets around young stars. In order to ensure that the st…
SIM PlanetQuest: The Most Promising Near-Term Technique to Detect, Find Masses, and Determine Three-Dimensional Orbits of Nearby Habitable Planets
M. Shao, G. Marcy, S. Unwin +21
The past two Decadal Surveys in Astronomy and Astrophysics recommended the completion of a space-based interferometry mission, known today as SIM PlanetQuest, for its unique abilit…
Predicting the frequencies of diverse exo-planetary systems
J. S. Greaves, D. A. Fischer, M. C. Wyatt +2
Extrasolar planetary systems range from hot Jupiters out to icy comet belts more distant than Pluto. We explain this diversity in a model where the mass of solids in the primordial…
