Chasing Shadows: Rotation of the Azimuthal Asymmetry in the TW Hya Disk

John H. Debes, Charles A. Poteet, Hannah Jang-Condell +8

We have obtained new images of the protoplanetary disk orbiting TW Hya in visible, total intensity light with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on the Hubble Space Te…

Peering into the Giant Planet Forming Region of the TW Hydrae Disk with the Gemini Planet Imager

Valerie A. Rapson, Joel H. Kastner, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +1

We present Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) adaptive optics near-infrared images of the giant planet-forming regions of the protoplanetary disk orbiting the nearby (D = 54 pc), pre-main…

Proposed Nomenclature for Surface Features on Pluto and Its Satellites and Names for Newly Discovered Satellites

Eric E. Mamajek, Valerie A. Rapson, David A. Cameron +8

In anticipation of the July 2015 flyby of the Pluto system by NASA's New Horizons mission, we propose naming conventions and example names for surface features on Pluto and its sat…

Scattered Light from Dust in the Cavity of the V4046 Sgr Transition Disk

Valerie A. Rapson, Joel H. Kastner, Sean M. Andrews +4

We report the presence of scattered light from dust grains located in the giant planet formation region of the circumbinary disk orbiting the ~20-Myr-old close (~0.045 AU separatio…

V4046 Sgr: Touchstone to Investigate Spectral Type Discrepancies for Pre-main Sequence Stars

Joel H. Kastner, Valerie Rapson, Benjamin Sargent +2

Determinations of the fundamental properties (e.g., masses and ages) of late-type, pre-main sequence (pre-MS) stars are complicated by the potential for significant discrepancies b…

A Spitzer IRS Survey of NGC 1333: Insights into disk evolution from a very young cluster

L. A. Arnold, Dan M. Watson, K. H. Kim +11

We report on the λ = 5-36μm Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph spectra of 79 young stellar objects in the very young nearby cluster NGC 1333. NGC 1333's youth enables the study of early…
