The SAGE-Spec Spitzer Legacy program: The life-cycle of dust and gas in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Point source classification I

Paul M. Woods, J. M. Oliveira, F. Kemper +55

We present the classification of 197 point sources observed with the Infrared Spectrograph in the SAGE-Spec Legacy program on the Spitzer Space Telescope. We introduce a decision-t…

Rusty old stars: a source of the missing interstellar iron?

Iain McDonald, Gregory C. Sloan, Albert A. Zijlstra +5

Iron, the Universe's most abundant refractory element, is highly depleted in both circumstellar and interstellar environments, meaning it exists in solid form. The nature of this s…

Line-profile tomography of exoplanet transits -- II. A gas-giant planet transiting a rapidly-rotating A5 star

A. Collier Cameron, E. Guenther, B. Smalley +16

Most of our knowledge of extrasolar planets rests on precise radial-velocity measurements, either for direct detection or for confirmation of the planetary origin of photometric tr…

The SAGE-Spec Spitzer Legacy program: The life-cycle of dust and gas in the Large Magellanic Cloud

F. Kemper, Paul M. Woods, V. Antoniou +53

The SAGE-Spec Spitzer Legacy program is a spectroscopic follow-up to the SAGE-LMC photometric survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud carried out with the Spitzer Space Telescope. We…

Discovery of long-period variable stars in the very-metal-poor globular cluster M15

Iain McDonald, Jacco Th. van Loon, Andrea K. Dupree +1

We present a search for long-period variable (LPV) stars among giant branch stars in M15 which, at [Fe/H] ~ -2.3, is one of the most metal-poor Galactic globular clusters. We use m…

Is Dust Forming on the Red Giant Branch in 47 Tuc?

M. L. Boyer, J. Th. van Loon, I. McDonald +13

Using Spitzer IRAC observations from the SAGE-SMC Legacy program and archived Spitzer IRAC data, we investigate dust production in 47 Tuc, a nearby massive Galactic globular cluste…
