The Different Evolution of Gas and Dust in Disks around Sun-like and Cool Stars
I. Pascucci, D. Apai, K. Luhman +5
We present the first comprehensive, comparative Spitzer/IRS study of the dust and gas properties of disks around young sun-like stars (K1-M5) and cool stars/brown dwarfs (M5-M9). T…
Medium-separation binaries do not affect the first steps of planet formation
I. Pascucci, D. Apai, E. E. Hardegree-Ullman +3
The first steps of planet formation are marked by the growth and crystallization of sub-micrometer-sized dust grains accompanied by dust settling toward the disk midplane. In this…
A Survey for Massive Giant Planets in Debris Disks with Evacuated Inner Cavities
D. Apai, M. Janson, A. Moro-Martin +9
The commonality of collisionally replenished debris around main sequence stars suggests that minor bodies are frequent around Sun-like stars. Whether or not debris disks in general…
Dust rings and filaments around the isolated young star V1331 Cygni
Sascha P. Quanz, Daniel Apai, Thomas Henning
We characterize the small and large scale environment of the young star V1331 Cygni with high resolution HST/WFPC2 and Digitized Sky Survey images. In addition to a previously know…
Nearby debris disk systems with high fractional luminosity reconsidered
A. Moor, P. Abraham, A. Derekas +5
By searching the IRAS and ISO databases we compiled a list of 60 debris disks which exhibit the highest fractional luminosity values (fd>10^-4) in the vicinity of the Sun (d<120pc)…
HST/NICMOS observations of a proto-brown dwarf candidate
D. Apai, L. V. Toth, Th. Henning +3
We present deep HST/NICMOS observations peering through the outflow cavity of the protostellar candidate IRAS 04381+2540 in the Taurus Molecular Cloud-1. A young stellar object as…
Grain growth and dust settling in a brown dwarf disk: Gemini/T-ReCS observations of CFHT-BD-Tau 4
D. Apai, I. Pascucci, M. F. Sterzik +4
We present accurate mid-infrared observations of the disk around the young, bona-fide brown dwarf CFHT-BD-Tau 4. We report GEMINI/T-ReCS measurements in the 7.9, 10.4 and 12.3 micr…
The hot core-ultracompact HII connection in G10.47+0.03
I. Pascucci, D. Apai, Th. Henning +2
We present infrared imaging and spectroscopic data of the complex massive star-forming region G10.47+0.03. The detection of seven mid-infrared (MIR) sources in our field combined w…
First Detection of Millimeter Dust Emission from Brown Dwarf Disks
R. Klein, D. Apai, I. Pascucci +2
We report results from the first deep millimeter continuum survey targeting Brown Dwarfs (BDs). The survey led to the first detection of cold dust in the disks around two young BDs…
The First Detailed Look at a Brown Dwarf Disk
I. Pascucci, D. Apai, Th. Henning +1
The combination of mid-infrared and recent submm/mm measurements allows us to set up the first comprehensive spectral energy distribution (SED) of the circumstellar material around…
Probing Dust around Brown Dwarfs: The naked LP 944-20 and the Disk of Cha Ha2
D. Apai, I. Pascucci, Th. Henning +5
We present the first mid-infrared (MIR) detection of a field brown dwarf (BD) and the first ground-based MIR measurements of a disk around a young BD candidate. We prove the absenc…
