Identifying Young Stellar Objects in the Outer Galaxy: l = 224 deg Region in Canis Major
Marta Sewiło, Barbara A. Whitney, Bosco H. K. Yung +14
We study a very young star-forming region in the outer Galaxy that is the most concentrated source of outflows in the Spitzer Space Telescope GLIMPSE360 survey. This region, dubbed…
Spectroscopic Assessment of WISE-based Young Stellar Object Selection
Xavier Koenig, Lynne Hillenbrand, Deborah Padgett +1
We have conducted a sensitive search down to the hydrogen burning limit for unextincted stars over 200 square degrees around Lambda Orionis and 20 square degrees around Sigma…
The Most Luminous Galaxies Discovered by WISE
Chao-Wei Tsai, Peter Eisenhardt, Jingwen Wu +25
We present 20 WISE-selected galaxies with bolometric luminosities L_bol > 10^14 L_sun, including five with infrared luminosities L_IR = L(rest 8-1000 micron) > 10^14 L_sun. These "…
B- and A-Type Stars in the Taurus-Auriga Star Forming Region
Kunal P. Mooley, Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Luisa M. Rebull +2
We describe the results of a search for early-type stars associated with the Taurus-Auriga molecular cloud complex, a diffuse nearby star-forming region noted as lacking young star…
The First Ultra-Cool Brown Dwarf Discovered by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer
A. Mainzer, Michael C. Cushing, M. Skrutskie +17
We report the discovery of the first new ultra-cool brown dwarf found with the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). The object's preliminary designation is WISEPC J045853.90…
The Mass Distributions of Starless and Protostellar Cores in Gould Belt Clouds
S. I. Sadavoy, J. Di Francesco, S. Bontemps +12
Using data from the SCUBA Legacy Catalogue (850 um) and Spitzer Space Telescope (3.6 - 70 um), we explore dense cores in the Ophiuchus, Taurus, Perseus, Serpens, and Orion molecula…
The Dust Emissivity Spectral Index in the Starless Core TMC-1C
Scott Schnee, Melissa Enoch, Alberto Noriega-Crespo +10
In this paper we present a dust emission map of the starless core TMC-1C taken at 2100 microns. Along with maps at 160, 450, 850 and 1200 microns, we study the dust emissivity spec…
Evidence for dust evolution within the Taurus Complex from Spitzer images
N. Flagey, A. Noriega-Crespo, F. Boulanger +9
We present Spitzer images of the Taurus Complex (TC) and take advantage of the sensitivity and spatial resolution of the observations to characterize the diffuse IR emission across…
From Protostars to Planetary Systems : FUV Spectroscopy of YSOs, Protoplanetary Disks, and Extrasolar Giant Planets
Paul A. Scowen, Rolf Jansen, Matthew Beasley +7
The last two decades have seen remarkable progress in our long-standing goal of determining the abundance and diversity of worlds in the Galaxy. Understanding of this subject invol…
Understanding Global Galactic Star Formation
Paul A. Scowen, Rolf Jansen, Matthew Beasley +9
We propose to the community a comprehensive UV/optical/NIR imaging survey of Galactic star formation regions to probe all aspects of the star formation process. The primary goal of…
