Scattered light models of the dust shell around HD 179821
The dust shell around the evolved star HD 179821 has been detected in scattered light in near-IR imaging polarimetry observations. Here, we subtract the contribution of the unpolarized stellar light to obtain an intrinsic linear polarization of between 30 and 40 per cent in the shell which seems to increase with radial offset from the star. The J and K band data are modelled using a scattering ...
متن کاملFirst Scattered Light Images of Debris Disks around Hd 53143 and Hd 139664
We present the first scattered light images of debris disks around a K star (HD 53143) and an F star (HD 139664) using the coronagraphic mode of the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) aboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). With ages 0.3 1 Gyr, these are among the oldest optically detected debris disks. HD 53143, viewed ∼45 from edge-on, does not show radial variation in disk structure and has ...
متن کاملDust disks around old Pre Main - Sequence stars : HST / NICMOS 2 scattered light images and modeling
We present recent near-infrared detections of circumstellar disks around the two old PMS Herbig stars HD141569 and HD100546 obtained with the HST/NICMOS2 camera. They reveal extended structures larger than 350–400 AU in radius. While the HD100546 disk appears as a continuous disk down to 40AU, the HD141569 environment seems more complex, splitted at least into two dust populations. As a convinc...
متن کامل1 What next for the Likely Pre - Supernova , Hd 179821 ?
We have used the Owens Valley Radio Observatory Millimeter Array to obtain a map of the J = (1→0) CO emission from the circumstellar shell around HD 179821, a highly evolved G-type star which will probably explode as a supernova in the next 10 5 yr. Very approximately, the gas presents as a circular ring with an inner diameter of 3. ′′ 95, an outer diameter of ∼12 ′′ and with azimuthal variatio...
متن کاملMid - Infrared Imaging and Modelling of the Dust Shell around Post - AGB star HD 187885 ( IRAS 19500 - 1709 )
We present 10 and 20 μm images of IRAS 19500-1709 taken with the mid-infrared camera, OSCIR, mounted on the Gemini North Telescope. An extended circumstellar envelope is detected, with the N band image indicating an elongation in a NE-SW direction. We use a dust radiation transport code to fit the spectral energy distribution from UV to sub-mm wavelengths, with a detached dust shell model. A go...
