The James Webb Space Telescope Mission
Jonathan P. Gardner, John C. Mather, Randy Abbott +1004
Twenty-six years ago a small committee report, building on earlier studies, expounded a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy, calling for an infrared-optimized…
Evidence for a Turnover in the IMF of Low Mass Stars and Sub-stellar Objects: Analysis from an Ensemble of Young Clusters
M. Andersen, M. R. Meyer, J. Greissl +1
We present a combined analysis of the low-mass Initial Mass Function (IMF) for seven star forming regions. We first demonstrate that the ratios of stars to brown dwarfs are consist…
HST/NICMOS Observations of NGC 1333: The Ratio of Stars to Sub-Stellar Objects
Julia Greissl, Michael R. Meyer, Bruce A. Wilking +4
We present an analysis of NICMOS photometry and low-resolution grism spectroscopy of low-mass stars and sub-stellar objects in the young star-forming region NGC 1333. Our goal is t…
Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems: Placing Our Solar System in Context with Spitzer
Michael R. Meyer, the FEPS Legacy Science Team
We summarize the progress to date of our Legacy Science Program entitled "The Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems" (FEPS) based on observations obtained with the Spitzer S…
Spitzer Observations of G Dwarfs in the Pleiades: Circumstellar Debris Disks at 100 Myr Age
J. R. Stauffer, L. Rebull, J. Carpenter +12
Fluxes and upper limits in the wavelength range from 3.6 to 70 microns from the Spitzer Space Telescope are provided for twenty solar-mass Pleiades members. One of these stars show…
HST/NICMOS Observations of the Embedded Cluster in NGC 2024: Constraints on the IMF and Binary Fraction
Wilson M. Liu, Michael R. Meyer, Angela S. Cotera +1
We present an analysis of NICMOS observations of the embedded cluster associated with NGC 2024. An analysis of the cluster color-magnitude diagram (CMD) using the models of D'Anton…
