Spitzer Observations of Bok Globule B335: Isolated Star Formation Efficiency and Cloud Structure
Amelia M. Stutz,Mark Rubin,Michael W. Werner,George H. Rieke,John H. Bieging,Jocelyn Keene,Miju Kang,Yancy L. Shirley,Kate Y. L. Su,Thangasamy Velusamy,David J. Wilner +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, infrared and millimeter observations of Barnard 335, the prototypical isolated Bok globule with an embedded protostar, were used to measure the source luminosity accurately and constrain the density profile of the innermost globule material near the protostars using the observation of an 8.0 um shadow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatially Resolved Observations of the Galactic Center Source IRS 21
Angelle Tanner,Andrea M. Ghez,Mark Morris,Eric E. Becklin,Angela S. Cotera,Michael E. Ressler,Michael W. Werner,Peter Wizinowich +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, diffraction-limited 2-25 μm images were obtained with the W. M. Keck 10 m telescopes that spatially resolved the cool source IRS 21, one of a small group of enigmatic objects in the central parsec of our Galaxy that have eluded classification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do the Infrared Emission Features Need Ultraviolet Excitation
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of imaging spectroscopy of the reflection nebula vdB 133, obtained with the infrared camera and circular variable filter wheel on the Infrared Space Observatory, reveal the infrared emission features (IEFs), at 6.2, 7.7, 8.3, and 12.7 μm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mid-infrared images of the debris disk around HD 141569
K. A. Marsh,Murray D. Silverstone,E. E. Becklin,David W. Koerner,Michael W. Werner,Alycia J. Weinberger,Michael E. Ressler +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Keck II telescope to image the debris disk around the A0 Ve/B95 Ve star HD 141569 (D = 99 pc), at λ = 125, 179, and 208 μm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spitzer and heinrich hertz telescope observations of starless cores: masses and environments
Amelia M. Stutz,Amelia M. Stutz,George H. Rieke,John H. Bieging,Zoltan Balog,Zoltan Balog,Fabian Heitsch,Miju Kang,Miju Kang,Miju Kang,William L. Peters,Yancy L. Shirley,Michael W. Werner +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present Spitzer observations of a sample of 12 starless cores selected to have prominent 24?m shadows and conclude that these shadows are useful markers of cloud cores that are approaching collapse.
