  • Lurking in the Shadows: Wide-Separation Gas Giants As Tracers of Planet Formation
    Lurking in the Shadows: Wide-Separation Gas Giants as Tracers of Planet Formation Thesis by Marta Levesque Bryan In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Pasadena, California 2018 Defended May 1, 2018 ii © 2018 Marta Levesque Bryan ORCID: [0000-0002-6076-5967] All rights reserved iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I would like to thank Heather Knutson, who I had the great privilege of working with as my thesis advisor. Her encouragement, guidance, and perspective helped me navigate many a challenging problem, and my conversations with her were a consistent source of positivity and learning throughout my time at Caltech. I leave graduate school a better scientist and person for having her as a role model. Heather fostered a wonderfully positive and supportive environment for her students, giving us the space to explore and grow - I could not have asked for a better advisor or research experience. I would also like to thank Konstantin Batygin for enthusiastic and illuminating discussions that always left me more excited to explore the result at hand. Thank you as well to Dimitri Mawet for providing both expertise and contagious optimism for some of my latest direct imaging endeavors. Thank you to the rest of my thesis committee, namely Geoff Blake, Evan Kirby, and Chuck Steidel for their support, helpful conversations, and insightful questions. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Brendan Bowler. His talk at Caltech my second year of graduate school introduced me to an unexpected population of massive wide-separation planetary-mass companions, and lead to a long-running collaboration from which several of my thesis projects were born.

In this work we derive new precise and homogeneous parameters for 37 stars with planets. For this purpose, we analyze high resolution spectra obtained by the NARVAL spectrograph for a sample composed of bright planet host stars in the northern hemisphere. The new parameters are included in the SWEET-Cat online catalogue. Methods. To ensure that the catalogue is homogeneous, we use our standard spectroscopic analysis procedure, ARES+MOOG, to derive effective temperatures, surface gravities, and metallicities. These spectroscopic stellar parameters are then used as input to compute the stellar mass and radius, which are fundamental for the derivation of the planetary mass and radius.

  • The Solar Neighborhood VI: New Southern Stars Identified by Optical
    To appear in the April 2002 issue of the Astronomical Journal The Solar Neighborhood VI: New Southern Nearby Stars Identified by Optical Spectroscopy Todd J. Henry1 Department of Physics and Astronomy, Georgia State University, Atlanta, GA 30303 Lucianne M. Walkowicz Department of Physics and Astronomy, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD 21218 Todd C. Barto1 Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company, Boulder, CO 80306 and David A. Golimowski Department of Physics and Astronomy, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD 21218 ABSTRACT Broadband optical spectra are presented for 34 known and candidate nearby stars in the southern sky. Spectral types are determined using a new method that compares the entire spectrum with spectra of more than 100 standard stars. We estimate distances to 13 candidate nearby stars using our spectra and new or published photometry. Six of these stars are probably within 25 pc, and two are likely to be within the RECONS horizon of 10 pc. arXiv:astro-ph/0112496v1 20 Dec 2001 Subject headings: stars: distances — stars: low mass, brown dwarfs — white dwarfs — surveys 1. Introduction The nearest stars have received renewed scrutiny because of their importance to fundamental astrophysics (e.g., stellar atmospheres, the mass content of the Galaxy) and because of their poten- tial for harboring planetary systems and life (e.g., the NASA Origins and Astrobiology initiatives). 1Visiting Astronomer, Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory.

Called “Cool Stars, Stellar Systems, and the Sun,” the meeting empha- sized the solar stellar connection and focused discussion on “several topics … in which the similarity is manifest: the structures of chromospheres and coronae, stellar activity, and the phenomena of mass loss,” according to the preface of the resulting, “Special Report of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory.” We could easily have chosen the same topics for this meeting. Over the summer of 1980, the group met again in Bonas, France and then back in Cambridge in 1981. Nearly 40 years on, I am comfortable saying these workshops have evolved to be the premier conference series for cool star research. Cool Stars has been held largely biennially, alternating between North America and Europe. Over that time, the field of stellar astro- physics has been upended several times, first by results from Hubble, then ROSAT, then Keck and other large aperture ground-based adaptive optics telescopes.

    Handbook of Star Forming Regions Vol. II Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2008 Bo Reipurth, ed. Chamaeleon Kevin L. Luhman Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics The Pennsylvania State University University Park, PA 16802, USA Abstract. The dark clouds in the constellation of Chamaeleon have distances of 160-180pc from the Sun and a total mass of ∼5000 M⊙. The three main clouds, Cha I, II, and III, have angular sizes of a few square degrees and maximum extinctions of AV ∼ 5-10. Most of the star formation in these clouds is occurring in Cha I, with the remainder in Cha II. The current census of Cha I contains 237 known members, 33 of which have spectral types indicative of brown dwarfs (>M6). Approximately 50 members of Cha II have been identified, including a few brown dwarfs. When interpreted with the evolutionary models of Chabrier and Baraffe, the H-R diagram for Cha I exhibits a median age of ∼2 Myr, making it coeval with IC 348 and slightly older than Taurus (∼1 Myr). TheIMF ofChaI reachesa maximumat a massof0.1-0.15 M⊙, and thus closely resembles the IMFs in IC 348 and the Orion Nebula Cluster. The disk fraction in Cha I is roughly constant at ∼ 50% from 0.01 to 0.3 M⊙ and increases to ∼ 65% at higher masses. In comparison, IC 348 has a similar disk fraction at low masses but a much lower disk fraction at M ∼> 1 M⊙, indicating that solar-type stars have longer disk lifetimes in Cha I. 1. Introduction The southern constellation of Chamaeleon contains one of the nearest groups of dark clouds to the Sun (d ∼ 160-180 pc).
