High Resolution ALMA Data of the Fomalhaut Debris Disk Confirms Apsidal Width Variation
Jay S. Chittidi, Meredith A. MacGregor, Joshua Bennett Lovell +11
We present long-baseline observations of the Fomalhaut outer debris disk at 223 GHz (1.3 mm) from ALMA Cycle 5, which we use along with archival short-baseline observations to prod…
Searching for Planets Orbiting Vega with the James Webb Space Telescope
Charles Beichman, Geoffrey Bryden, Jorge Llop-Sayson +15
The most prominent of the IRAS debris disk systems, Lyrae (Vega), at a distance of 7.7 pc, has been observed by both the NIRCam and MIRI instruments on the James Webb Space Te…
Deep Search for a scattered light dust halo around Vega with the Hubble Space Telescope
Schuyler G. Wolff, András Gáspár, George H. Rieke +6
We present a provisory scattered light detection of the Vega debris disk using deep Hubble Space Telescope coronagraphy (PID 16666). At only 7.7 parsecs, Vega is immensely importan…
Imaging of the Vega Debris System using JWST/MIRI
Kate Y. L. Su, Andras Gaspar, George H. Rieke +6
We present images of the Vega planetary debris disk obtained at 15.5, 23, and 25.5 microns with the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on JWST. The debris system is remarkably symmetri…
