A Search for Giant Planets Around Very Young Nearby Late-type Dwarfs
Very young late-type dwarfs at distances closer than 30 pc are excellent sites to provide a direct detection of extrasolar planets. The combination of youth and...
A search for hydrogenated fullerenes in fullerene-containing planetary nebulae
Detections of C60 and C70 fullerenes in planetary nebulae (PNe) of the Magellanic Clouds and of our own Galaxy have raised the idea that other forms of carbon...
A Search for Kinematic Evidence of Tidal Tails in Globular Clusters
Recent star count surveys of areas around globular star clusters have shown strong evidence of tidal tails stretching out many degrees beyond the cluster tidal...
A search for MG 2 H and K emission core variability in six main sequence stars
Spectra of six main sequence stars with spectral types from F0 to G8 were obtained with the IUE long wavelength spectrograph at high resolution. Four or more...
A search for new objects in the transition phase between AGB-stars and planetary nebulae
Preliminary results are presented from a spectroscopy survey of IRAS sources with colors similar to those of planetary nebulae. Two new planetary nebulae, some...
