A Genetic Algorithm-Based Exploration of Three Filament Models: A Case for the Magnetic Support of the G11.11-0.12 Infrared-Dark Cloud
Jason D. Fiege, Doug Johnstone, Russell O. Redman +1
The G11.11-0.12 infrared-dark cloud has a filamentary appearance, both in extinction against the diffuse infrared emission of the Galactic plane and in emission at 850 microns. We…
Destruction of Stellar Disks by Photoevaporation
D. Johnstone, I. Matsuyama, I. G. McCarthy +1
Photoevaporation may provide an explanation for the short lifetimes of disks around young stars. With the exception of neutral oxygen lines, the observed low-velocity forbidden lin…
Photoevaporation of Circumstellar Disks around Young Stars
Andreea S. Font, Ian G. McCarthy, Doug Johnstone +1
We examine the ability of photoevaporative disk winds to explain the low-velocity components observed in the forbidden line spectra of low-mass T Tauri stars. Using the analytic mo…
Halting planet migration by photoevaporation from the central source
Isamu Matsuyama, Doug Johnstone, Norman Murray
The recent discovery of Jupiter-mass planets orbiting at a few AU from their stars compliments earlier detections of massive planets on very small orbits. The short period orbits s…
Viscous diffusion and photoevaporation of stellar disks
Isamu Matsuyama, Doug Johnstone, Lee Hartmann
The evolution of a stellar disk under the influence of viscous evolution, photoevaporation from the central source, and photoevaporation by external stars is studied. We take the t…
A Submillimeter View of Star Formation Near the HII Region KR 140
C. R. Kerton, P. G. Martin, D. Johnstone +1
We present the results of 450 and 850 micron continuum mapping of the HII region KR 140 using the SCUBA instrument on the JCMT. KR 140 is a small (5.7 pc diameter) HII region at a…
