Hubble Space Telescope ACS Coronagraphic Imaging of the Circumstellar Disk around HD 141569A
Open accessAbstract
Multicolor coronagraphic images of the circumstellar disk around HD 141569A have been obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys. The B , V , and I images show that the disk's previously described multiple-ring structure is actually a continuous distribution of dust with a tightly wound spiral structure. Extending from the disk are two, more open spiral arms, one of which appears to reach the nearby binary star HD 141569BC. Diffuse dust is seen up to 1200 AU from HD 141569A. Although planets may exist in the inner region of the disk, tidal interaction with HD 141569BC seems more likely to be the cause of these phenomena. The disk appears redder than the star ( B - V = 0.21 and V - I = 0.25), and its color is spatially uniform. A scattering asymmetry factor of g = 0.25–0.35 is derived. The azimuthal density distribution is asymmetric, varying by a factor of ∼3 at some radii.

The disk of HD 141569A may extend to its Roche radius when the secondary is at pericenter and approaches HD 141569A.
“the disk of HD 141569A (Clampin et al. 2003) may extend to its Roche radius when the secondary is at pericenter and approaches HD 141569A (Augereau & Papaloizou 2004;Quillen et al. 2005).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
