The X-Ray Environment During the Epoch of Terrestrial Planet Formation: Chandra Observations of h Persei

Thayne Currie, Nancy Remage Evans, Brad Spitzbart +5

We describe Chandra/ACIS-I observations of the massive ~ 13--14 Myr-old cluster, h Persei, part of the famous Double Cluster (h and chi Persei) in Perseus. Combining the list of Ch…

The TEXES Survey For H2 Emission From Protoplanetary Disks

M. A. Bitner, M. J. Richter, J. H. Lacy +9

We report the results of a search for pure rotational molecular hydrogen emission from the circumstellar environments of young stellar objects with disks using the Texas Echelon Cr…

A Spitzer Study of Debris Disks In The Young Nearby Cluster NGC 2232: Icy Planets Are Common Around ~ 1.5--3 Solar-Mass Stars

Thayne Currie, Peter Plavchan, Scott J. Kenyon

We describe Spitzer IRAC and MIPS observations of the nearby 25 Myr-old open cluster NGC 2232. Combining these data with ROSAT All-Sky Survey observations, proper motions, and opti…

Deep MIPS Observations of the IC 348 Nebula: Constraints on the Evolutionary State of Anemic Circumstellar Disks and the Primordial-to-Debris Disk Transition

Thayne Currie, Scott Kenyon

We describe new, deep MIPS photometry and new high signal-to-noise optical spectroscopy of the 2.5 Myr-old IC 348 Nebula. To probe the properties of the IC 348 disk population, we…

Discovery of Gas Accretion Onto Stars in 13 Myr old h and chi Persei

Thayne Currie, Scott Kenyon, Zoltan Balog +2

We report the discovery of accretion disks associated with ~ 13 Myr-old intermediate/low-mass stars in h and chi Persei. Optical spectroscopy of ~ 5000 stars in these clusters and…

The Rise and Fall of Debris Disks: MIPS Observations of h and chi Persei and the Evolution of Mid-IR Emission from Planet Formation

Thayne Currie, Scott Kenyon, Zoltan Balog +3

We describe Spitzer/MIPS observations of the double cluster, h and Persei, covering a 0.6 square-degree area surrounding the cores of both clusters. The data are combine…
