Investigating the inner discs of Herbig Ae/Be stars with CO bandhead and Br Gamma emission
John D. Ilee, John Fairlamb, Rene D. Oudmaijer +4
Herbig Ae/Be stars lie in the mass range between low and high mass young stars, and therefore offer a unique opportunity to observe any changes in the formation processes that may…
The Science Case for the Planet Formation Imager (PFI)
Stefan Kraus, John Monnier, Tim Harries +16
Among the most fascinating and hotly-debated areas in contemporary astrophysics are the means by which planetary systems are assembled from the large rotating disks of gas and dust…
Planet Formation Imager (PFI): Introduction and Technical Considerations
John D. Monnier, Stefan Kraus, David Buscher +13
Complex non-linear and dynamic processes lie at the heart of the planet formation process. Through numerical simulation and basic observational constraints, the basics of planet fo…
The inner circumstellar disk of the UX Ori star V1026 Sco
J. Vural, A. Kreplin, M. Kishimoto +8
The UX Ori type variables (named after the prototype of their class) are intermediate-mass pre-main sequence objects. One of the most likely causes of their variability is the obsc…
An Observational Perspective of Transitional Disks
Catherine Espaillat, James Muzerolle, Joan Najita +7
Transitional disks are objects whose inner disk regions have undergone substantial clearing. The Spitzer Space Telescope produced detailed spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of t…
