VLTI/GRAVITY Provides Evidence the Young, Substellar Companion HD 136164 Ab formed like a "Failed Star"
William O. Balmer, L. Pueyo, S. Lacour +93
Young, low-mass Brown Dwarfs orbiting early-type stars, with low mass ratios (), appear intrinsically rare and present a formation dilemma: could a handful of these…
VLTI/GRAVITY Observations and Characterization of the Brown Dwarf Companion HD 72946 B
W. O. Balmer, L. Pueyo, T. Stolker +96
Tension remains between the observed and modeled properties of substellar objects, but objects in binary orbits, with known dynamical masses can provide a way forward. HD 72946 B i…
Establishing Oph as a Prototype Rotator: Precision Orbit with new Keck, CHARA, and RV Observations
Tyler Gardner, John D. Monnier, Francis C. Fekel +11
Alpha Ophiuchi (Rasalhague) is a nearby rapidly rotating A5IV star which has been imaged by infrared interferometry. Oph is also part of a known binary system, with a companion…
A triple star system with a misaligned and warped circumstellar disk shaped by disk tearing
Stefan Kraus, Alexander Kreplin, Alison K. Young +29
Young stars are surrounded by a circumstellar disk of gas and dust, within which planet formation can occur. Gravitational forces in multiple star systems can disrupt the disk. The…
Irregular dust features around intermediate-mass young stars with GPI: signs of youth or misaligned disks?
Anna S. E. Laws, Tim J. Harries, Benjamin R. Setterholm +14
We are undertaking a large survey of over thirty disks using the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) to see whether the observed dust structures match spectral energy distribution (SED) pre…
The Effect of Binarity on Circumstellar Disk Evolution
Scott A. Barenfeld, John M. Carpenter, Anneila I. Sargent +6
We present new results on how the presence of stellar companions affects disk evolution based on a study of the 5-11 Myr old Upper Scorpius OB Association. Of the 50 G0-M3 Upper Sc…
