Deep Search for a Scattered Light Dust Halo Around Vega with the Hubble Space Telescope

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present a provisory scattered-light detection of the Vega debris disk using deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) coronagraphy (PID 16666). At only 7.7 pc, Vega is immensely important in debris disk studies both for its prominence and also because it ...

Light Echoes of Time-resolved Flares and Application to Kepler Data

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics
Light echoes of stellar flares provide an intriguing option for exploring protoplanetary disks in young stellar systems. Previous work on light echoes of circumstellar disks made use of delta-function flares for modeling.

A JWST MIRI MRS View of the η Tel Debris Disk and Its Brown Dwarf Companion

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report JWST Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) Medium Resolution Spectrograph (MRS) observations of the β Pic moving-group member, η Tel A, along with its brown dwarf binary companion, η Tel B.

Exploring the Complex Ionization Environment of the Turbulent DM Tau Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Ionization drives important chemical and dynamical processes within protoplanetary disks, including the formation of organics and water in the cold midplane and the transportation of material via accretion and magnetohydrodynamic flows.

Spectropolarimetry and the Study of Circumstellar Disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Circumstellar disks play an important role in many stages of the evolution of stars. However, it is only possible to directly image circumstellar disks for a few of the nearest stars. For massive stars, the situation is even more difficult, as they are on average further away than the more numerous low mass stars.

The First JWST View of a 30-Myr-old Protoplanetary Disk Reveals a Late-stage Carbon-rich Phase

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present a JWST MIRI/MRS spectrum of the inner disk of WISE J044634.16–262756.1B (hereafter J0446B), an old (∼34 Myr) M4.5 star but with hints of ongoing accretion. The spectrum is molecule-rich and dominated by hydrocarbons.
