  • Adaptive Optics Imaging of Circumstellar Environments
    Star Formation at High Angular Resolution IAU Symposium, Vol. 221, 2004 M. G. Burton, R. Jayawardhana & T.L. Bourke, eds. Adaptive Optics Imaging of Circumstellar Environments Daniel Apai, Ilaria Pascucci, Hongchi Wang, Wolfgang Brandner and Thomas Henning Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, Kimiqsiuhl 17., Heidelberg, Germany D-69117 Carol Grady NOAO/STIS, Goddard Space Flight Center, Code 681, NASA/GSFC, Greenbelt, MD 20771, USA Dan Potter Steward Observatory, University of Arizona, 933 N. Cherry Avenue, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA Abstract. We present results from our high-resolution, high-contrast imaging campaign targeting the circumstellar environments of young, nearby stars of different masses. The observations have been conducted using the ALFA/CA 3.5m and NACO UT4/VLT adaptive optics systems. In order to enhance the contrast we applied the methods PSF-subtraction and polarimetric differential imaging (PDI). The observations of young stars yielded the identification of numerous new companion candidates, the most interesting one being rv 0.5" from FU Ori. We also obtained high-resolution near-infrared imaging of the circumstellar envelope of SU Aur and AB Aur. Our PDI of the TW Hya circumstellar disk traced back the disk emission as close as 0.1" ~ 6 AU from the star, the closest yet. Our results demonstrate the potential of the adaptive optics systems in achieving high-resolution and high-contrast imaging and thus in the study of circumstellar disks, envelopes and companions. 1. Introduction Young, nearby stars are our prime source of information to study the circum- stellar disk structure and evolution. They are also the ideal targets for adaptive optics (AO) observations, as they are usually bright enough to provide excellent wavefront reference.

  • Iván Almár Is Professor of Astronomy at the Konkoly Observatory of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences
    Iván Almár is professor of astronomy at the Konkoly Observatory of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. He has worked in space research (specifically, upper-atmospheric research and satellite geodesy) for more than 50 years. Prof. Almár has been a Member of the IAA since 1984, and was chairman of its Space and Society Commission from 2003 to 2005. He began presenting and publishing papers on planetary protection in 1989. Charles Cockell is professor of geomicrobiology at the Open University, UK. He obtained his PhD from the University of Oxford and held an NRC Associateship at the NASA Ames Research Centre. His interests are in microbe-mineral interactions and life in extreme environments. He is author of several books, including 'Space on Earth' (Macmillan), which explores the links between environmentalism and space exploration. His publications on ethics have focused on the place of microorganisms in environmental ethics and the protection of the space environment. He is Chair of the Earth and Space Foundation. Catharine A. Conley has served as the NASA Planetary Protection Officer since 2006. Prior to this, Conley's research at NASA Ames Research Center focused on the biochemistry and evolution of muscle tissue. Conley has been involved in several spaceflight experiments using the nematode worm, Caenorhabditis elegans, the first of which was flown on the last mission of the Space Shuttle Columbia. Flight hardware was recovered after the tragic accident, and when opened it was found that some spaceflown experimental animals were still alive, a finding of considerable relevance to Planetary Protection. Gernot Groemer has a background in astronomy and astrobiology.
