Far-infrared properties of M dwarfs (2008)
Gautier, Thomas N. III, Rieke, G. H., Stansberry, John, Bryden, Geoffrey C., Stapelfeldt, Karl R., Werner, Michael W., ...
We report the mid- and far-infrared properties of nearby M dwarfs. Spitzer/MIPS measurements were obtained for a sample of 62 stars at 24 μm, with subsamples of 41 and 20 stars observed at 70 μm...
Origin of the Near-Ecliptic Circumsolar Dust Band (2008)
Nesvorný, David, Bottke, William F., Vokrouhlický, David, Sykes, Mark, Lien, David J., Stansberry, John
The zodiacal dust bands are bright infrared (IR) strips produced by thermal emission from circumsolar rings of particles. Two of the three principal dust bands, known as β and γ, were previously...
Planetary Science Goals for the Spitzer Warm Era (2007)
Lisse, Carey, Sykes, Mark, Trilling, David, Emery, Josh, Fernandez, Yanga, Hammel, Heidi, ...
The overarching goal of planetary astronomy is to deduce how the present collection of objects found in our Solar System were formed from the original material present in the proto-solar nebula. As...
Far Infrared Prperties of M Dwarfs (2007)
Gautier III, Thomas. N., Rieke, G. H., Stansberry, John, Bryden, Geoffrey C., Stapelfeldt, Karl R., Werner, Michael W., ...
We report the mid- and far-infrared properties of nearby M dwarfs. Spitzer/MIPS measurements were obtained for a sample of 62 stars at 24 um, with subsamples of 41 and 20 stars observed at 70 um and...
Gordon, Karl D., Engelbracht, Charles W., Fadda, Dario, Stansberry, John, Wachter, Stefanie, Frayer, Dave T., ...
The absolute calibration and characterization of the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) 70 micron coarse- and fine-scale imaging modes are presented based on over 2.5 years of...
Stansberry, John, Grundy, Will, Brown, Mike, Cruikshank, Dale, Spencer, John, Trilling, David, ...
Detecting heat from minor planets in the outer solar system is challenging, yet it is the most efficient means for constraining the albedos and sizes of Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) and their progeny,...
Candidates for asteroid dust trails (2006)
Nesvorný, David, Sykes, Mark, Lien, David J., Stansberry, John, Reach, William T., Vokrouhlický, David, ...
The contribution of different sources to the circumsolar dust cloud (known as the zodiacal cloud) can be deduced from diagnostic observations. We used the Spitzer Space Telescope to observe the...
