We present multi-epoch infrared photometry and spectroscopy obtained with warm Spitzer, Subaru and SOFIA to assess variability for the young ($\sim$20 Myr) and dusty debris systems around HD 172555 and HD 113766A. No variations (within 0.5%) were fou

Near-Infrared Variability of Low Mass Stars in IC 1396A and TR 37

Autor: Meng, Huan Y. A., Rieke, G. H., Kim, Jinyoung Serena, Sicilia-Aguilar, Aurora, Cross, N. J. G., Esplin, Taran, Rebull, L. M., Hodapp, Klaus W.

We have monitored nearly a square degree in IC 1396A/Tr 37 over 21 epochs extending over 2014 - 2016 for sources variable in the JHK bands. In our data, 65 +\- 8 % of previously identified cluster members show variations, compared with < 0.3% of fiel

We present a photometric detection of the first brightness dips of the unique variable star KIC 8462852 since the end of the Kepler space mission in 2013 May. Our regular photometric surveillance started in October 2015, and a sequence of dipping beg

To test alternative hypotheses for the behavior of KIC 8462852, we obtained measurements of the star over a wide wavelength range from the UV to the mid-infrared from October 2015 through December 2016, using Swift, Spitzer and at AstroLAB IRIS. The

Theoretical models and spectroscopic observations of newborn stars suggest that protoplantary disks have an inner "wall" at a distance set by the disk interaction with the star. Around T Tauri stars, the size of this disk hole is expected to be on a
