A SOFIA FORCAST Grism Study of the Mineralogy of Dust in the Winds of Proto-planetary Nebulae: RV Tauri Stars and SRd Variables
R. A. Arneson, R. D. Gehrz, C. E. Woodward +10
We present a SOFIA FORCAST grism spectroscopic survey to examine the mineralogy of the circumstellar dust in a sample of post-asymptotic giant branch yellow supergiants that are be…
Mid-Infrared Imaging of the Bipolar Planetary Nebula M2-9 from SOFIA
M. W. Werner, R. Sahai, J. Davis +10
We have imaged the bipolar planetary nebula M2-9 using SOFIA's FORCAST instrument in six wavelength bands between 6.6 and 37.1 . A bright central point source, unresolved with…
Mid-IR FORCAST/SOFIA Observations of M82
T. Nikola, T. L. Herter, W. D. Vacca +9
We present 75"x75" size maps of M82 at 6.4 micron, 6.6 micron, 7.7 micron, 31.5 micron, and 37.1 micron with a resolution of ~4" that we have obtained with the mid-IR camera FORCAS…
Crystalline silicates and dust processing in the protoplanetary disks of the Taurus young cluster
Dan M. Watson, Jarron M. Leisenring, Elise Furlan +15
We characterize the crystalline silicate content and spatial distribution of small dust grains in a large sample of protoplanetary disks in the Taurus-Auriga young cluster, using S…
A Survey and Analysis of Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph Spectra of T Tauri Stars in Taurus
E. Furlan, L. Hartmann, N. Calvet +9
We present mid-infrared spectra of T Tauri stars in the Taurus star-forming region obtained with the Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph (IRS). For the first time, the 5-36 micron spectr…
Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy of Disks around Classical T Tauri Stars
W. J. Forrest, B. Sargent, E. Furlan +18
We present the first Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph (IRS; The IRS was a collaborative venture between Cornell University and Ball Aerospace Corporation funded by NASA through the Je…
