Lack of PAH emission toward low-mass embedded young stellar objects
V. C. Geers, E. F. van Dishoeck, K. M. Pontoppidan +4
PAHs have been detected toward molecular clouds and some young stars with disks, but have not yet been associated with embedded young stars. We present a sensitive mid-IR spectrosc…
Spatially extended PAHs in circumstellar disks around T Tauri and Herbig Ae stars
V. C. Geers, E. F. van Dishoeck, R. Visser +4
Our aim is to determine the presence and location of the emission from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) towards low and intermediate mass young stars with disks using large…
Spatial separation of small and large grains in the transitional disk around the young star IRS 48
V. C. Geers, K. M. Pontoppidan, E. F. van Dishoeck +5
We present spatially resolved mid-infrared images of the disk surrounding the young star IRS 48 in the Ophiuchus cloud complex. The disk exhibits a ring-like structure at 18.7 micr…
PAH chemistry and IR emission from circumstellar disks
R. Visser, V. C. Geers, C. P. Dullemond +3
Aims. The chemistry of, and infrared (IR) emission from, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in disks around Herbig Ae/Be and T Tauri stars are investigated. The equilibrium di…
Modeling Spitzer observations of VV Ser. II. an extended quantum heated nebula and a disk shadow
Klaus M. Pontoppidan, Cornelis P. Dullemond, Geoffrey A. Blake +4
We present mid-infrared Spitzer IRAC and MIPS images of the UX Orionis star VV Ser and the surrounding cloud. The 5.6--70 micron images show bright, localized and nebulous emission…
Spitzer-IRS spectra of disks around T Tauri stars II. PAH emission features
V. C. Geers, J. -C. Augereau, K. M. Pontoppidan +10
Aims: We search for PAH features towards T Tauri stars and compare them with surveys of Herbig Ae/Be stars. The presence and strength of the PAH features are interpreted with disk…
