The HOSTS Survey: Suspected variable dust emission and constraints on companions around θ Boo

G. Garreau, D. Defrère, S. Ertel +23

During the HOSTS survey by the LBTI, an excess emission from the main sequence star θ Boo (F7V spectral type, 14.5pc distance) was observed. This excess indicates the presence of…
