Explorations of Dusty Debris Disk Geometry

E. Dennihy, John H. Debes, J. C. Clemens

As the sample of white dwarfs with signatures of planetary systems has grown, statistical studies have begun to suggest our picture of compact debris disk formation from disrupted…

A subtle IR excess associated with a young White Dwarf in the Edinburgh-Cape Blue Object Survey

E. Dennihy, John H. Debes, B. H. Dunlap +3

We report the discovery of a subtle infrared excess associated with the young white dwarf EC\,05365--4749 at 3.35 and 4.6\,m. Follow-up spectroscopic observations are consistent…

Deep HST/STIS Visible-Light Imaging of Debris Systems around Solar Analog Hosts

Glenn Schneider, Carol A. Grady, Christopher C. Stark +11

We present new Hubble Space Telescope observations of three a priori known starlight-scattering circumstellar debris systems (CDSs) viewed at intermediate inclinations around nearb…

A Search for short-period Rocky Planets around WDs with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS)

P. H. Sandhaus, J. H. Debes, J. Ely +2

The search for transiting habitable exoplanets has broadened to include several types of stars that are smaller than the Sun in an attempt to increase the observed transit depth an…

The inner structure of the TW Hya Disk as revealed in scattered light

J. H. Debes, H. Jang-Condell, G. Schneider

We observe a significant change in the TW Hya disk interior to 40~AU via archival unpolarized multi-wavelength Hubble Space Telescope/STIS and NICMOS images with an inner working a…

The Matryoshka Disk: Keck/NIRC2 Discovery of a Solar System-Scale, Radially Segregated Residual Protoplanetary Disk Around HD 141569A

Thayne Currie, Carol Grady, Ryan Cloutier +7

Using Keck/NIRC2 (3.78 ) data, we report the direct imaging discovery of a scattered light-resolved, solar system-scale residual protoplanetary disk around the young…
