Title:	Ten Micron Imaging and Spectroscopy of Orion Nebula Silhouette Disks
PI:	Tom Hayward
Co-I(s):

Abstract

We propose to take 10 and 20-micron images of four Orion Nebula silhouette disks using T-ReCS on Gemini South. Images taken through the 8-13 micron narrow-band filters and the broad-band 20.8 micron filter will define the disks' mid-IR spectral energy distribution and reveal the presence of any silicate emission.
