Deep HST/STIS Coronagraphic Imaging of the Pictoris Debris Disk: On the Scattered Light Component of the Cat's Tail

Arin M. Avsar, Kevin Wagner, Daniel Apai +6

The Pictoris debris disk is a unique system where mid-infrared coronagraphic imaging with JWST/MIRI revealed a new spatially resolved substructure known as the Cat's Tail. We p…

JWST/NIRCam Detection of the Fomalhaut C Debris Disk in Scattered Light

Kellen Lawson, Joshua E. Schlieder, Jarron M. Leisenring +20

Observations of debris disks offer important insights into the formation and evolution of planetary systems. Though M dwarfs make up approximately 80% of nearby stars, very few M-d…

Spatially resolved imaging of the inner Fomalhaut disk using JWST/MIRI

Andras Gaspar, Schuyler Grace Wolff, George H. Rieke +9

Planetary debris disks around other stars are analogous to the Asteroid and Kuiper belts in the Solar System. Their structure reveals the configuration of small bodies and provides…
