Polarimetric and radiative transfer modelling of HD 172555

Jonathan P. Marshall, Daniel V. Cotton, Peter Scicluna +3

The debris disc around HD 172555 was recently imaged in near-infrared polarised scattered light by the Very Large Telescope's Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch…

Systematic errors in dust mass determinations: Insights from laboratory opacity measurements

Lapo Fanciullo, Francisca Kemper, Peter Scicluna +2

The thermal emission of dust is one of the most important tracers of the interstellar medium: multi-wavelength photometry in the far-infrared (FIR) and submillimeter (submm) can be…

CHIMPS2: Survey description and CO emission in the Galactic Centre

D. J. Eden, T. J. T. Moore, M. J. Currie +103

The latest generation of Galactic-plane surveys is enhancing our ability to study the effects of galactic environment upon the process of star formation. We present the first data…

Betelgeuse fainter in the sub-millimetre too: an analysis of JCMT and APEX monitoring during the recent optical minimum

Thavisha E. Dharmawardena, Steve Mairs, Peter Scicluna +5

Betelgeuse is the nearest Red Supergiant star and it underwent an unusually deep minimum at optical wavelengths during its most recent pulsation cycle. We present submillimetre obs…

Magnetic Fields Studies in the Next Decade: EAO Submillimetre Futures White Paper Series, 2019

Ray S. Furuya, Kate Pattle, Simon Coudé +7

Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in our Universe, but remain poorly understood in many branches of astrophysics. A key tool for inferring astrophysical magnetic field properties is d…
