The Taurus Spitzer Survey: New Candidate Taurus Members Selected Using Sensitive Mid-Infrared Photometry

L. M. Rebull, D. L. Padgett, C. -E. McCabe +31

We report on the properties of pre-main-sequence objects in the Taurus molecular clouds as observed in 7 mid- and far-infrared bands with the Spitzer Space Telescope. There are 215…

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…

The circumstellar disc in the Bok globule CB 26: Multi-wavelength observations and modelling of the dust disc and envelope

J. Sauter, S. Wolf, R. Launhardt +10

Circumstellar discs are expected to be the nursery of planets. Grain growth within such discs is the first step in the planet formation process. The Bok globule CB 26 harbours such…

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…

The Star Formation Camera

Paul A. Scowen, Rolf Jansen, Matthew Beasley +21

The Star Formation Camera (SFC) is a wide-field (~15'x19, >280 arcmin^2), high-resolution (18x18 mas pixels) UV/optical dichroic camera designed for the Theia 4-m space-borne space…

Primordial Circumstellar Disks in Binary Systems: Evidence for Reduced Lifetimes

Lucas A. Cieza, Deborah L. Padgett, Lori E. Allen +9

We combine the results from several multiplicity surveys of pre-main-sequence stars located in four nearby star-forming regions with Spitzer data from three different Legacy Projec…

Far-infrared Observations of the Very Low-Luminosity Embedded Source L1521F-IRS in the Taurus Star-Forming Region

Susan Terebey, Michel Fich, Alberto Noriega-Crespo +14

We investigate the environment of the very low-luminosity object L1521F IRS using data from the Taurus Spitzer Legacy Survey. The MIPS 160 micron image shows both extended emission…
