Surprising detection of an equatorial dust lane on the AGB star IRC+10216

S. V. Jeffers, M. Min, L. B. F. M. Waters +6

Understanding the formation of planetary nebulae remains elusive because in the preceding asymtotic giant branch (AGB) phase these stars are heavily enshrouded in an optically thic…

Imaging the circumstellar environment of the young T Tauri star SU Aurigae

S. V. Jeffers, M. Min, H. Canovas +2

The circumstellar environments of classical T Tauri stars are challenging to directly image because of their high star-to-disk contrast ratio. One method to overcome this is by usi…

The Extreme Polarimeter: Design, Performance, First Results & Upgrades

M. Rodenhuis, H. Canovas, S. V. Jeffers +4

Well over 700 exoplanets have been detected to date. Only a handful of these have been observed directly. Direct observation is extremely challenging due to the small separation an…

Can habitable planets form in clustered environments?

M. de Juan Ovelar, J. M. D. Kruijssen, E. Bressert +3

We present observational evidence of environmental effects on the formation and evolution of planetary systems. We combine catalogues of resolved protoplanetary discs (PPDs) and yo…

Constraining the Circumbinary Envelope of Z CMa via imaging polarimetry

H. Canovas, M. Min, S. V. Jeffers +2

Z CMa is a complex binary system, composed of a Herbig Be and an FU Ori star. The Herbig star is surrounded by a dust cocoon of variable geometry, and the whole system is surrounde…

Direct imaging of a massive dust cloud around R Coronae Borealis

S. V. Jeffers, M. Min, L. B. F. M. Waters +5

We present recent polarimetric images of the highly variable star R CrB using ExPo and archival WFPC2 images from the HST. We observed R CrB during its current dramatic minimum whe…
