The Wavelength Dependence of Interstellar Extinction from 1.25 to 8.0 microns Using GLIMPSE Data

TL;DR: In this article, the extinction ratio between two filters, e.g. A(J)/A(K), is calculated from the color distributions of observed stars, and the mean values of the color excess ratios (A(λ)-A(k))/(A(J)-A (K)) are calculated from those measured ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spitzer Space Telescope study of disks in the young $\sigma$ Orionis cluster

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral energy distribution (SED) slopes in the IRAC spectral range were used to place objects in several classes: non-excess stars, stars with optically thick disks, class I (protostellar) candidates, and stars with ''evolved disks''.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Spitzer Space Telescope Survey of the Orion A & B Molecular Clouds - Part I: A Census of Dusty Young Stellar Objects and a Study of their Mid-IR Variability

TL;DR: In this article, a survey of the Orion A and B molecular clouds undertaken with the IRAC and MIPS instruments onboard Spitzer is presented, which includes the Orion Nebula Cluster, the Lynds 1641, 1630 and 1622 dark clouds, and the NGC 2023, 2024, 2068 and 2071 nebulae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strong water absorption in the dayside emission spectrum of the planet HD 189733b.

TL;DR: The detection of strong water absorption in a high-signal-to-noise, mid-infrared emission spectrum of the planet itself is reported, finding both a strong downturn in the flux ratio below 10 µm and discrete spectral features that are characteristic of strong absorption by water vapour.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Spitzer view of protoplanetary disks in the gamma Velorum cluster

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented new Spitzer Space Telescope observations of stars in the young ~5 Myr gamma Velorum stellar cluster, and selected 579 stars as candidate members of the cluster.
