Preliminary Orbit of the Young Binary Haro 1-14c
Using the Keck Interferometer, we spatially resolved the orbit of thepre-main-sequence (PMS) binary, Haro 1-14c, for the first time. Wepresent these interferometric observations along with additionalspectroscopic radial velocity measurements of the components. Weperformed a simultaneous orbit fit to the interferometric visibilitiesand the radial velocities of Haro 1-14c. Based on a statistical analysisof the possible orbital solutions that fit the data, we determinedcomponent masses of M 1 = 0.96+0.27 0.08 M sun and M 2 = 0.33+0.09 0.02 M sun for the primary and secondary,respectively, and a distance to the system of 111+19 18 pc. The distance measurement is consistent with the closedistance estimates of the Ophiuchus molecular cloud. Comparing ourresults with evolutionary tracks suggests an age of 3-4 Myr for Haro1-14c. With additional interferometric measurements to improve theuncertainties in the masses and distance, we expect the low-masssecondary to provide important empirical data for calibrating thetheoretical evolutionary tracks for PMS stars.

Near-Infrared Spectra of Centaurs and Kuiper Belt Objects
We present here an extensive survey of near-infrared (NIR) spectra ofKuiper belt objects (KBOs) and Centaurs taken with the Keck I Telescope.We find that most spectra in our sample are well characterized by acombination of water ice and a featureless continuum. A comparativeanalysis reveals that the NIR spectral properties have littlecorrelation to the visible colors or albedo, with the exception of thefragment KBOs produced from the giant impact on 2003 EL61. The resultssuggest that the surface composition of KBOs is heterogeneous, thoughthe exposure of water ice may be controlled by geophysical processes.The Centaurs also display diverse spectral properties, but the source ofthe variability remains unclear. The results for both the KBOs and theCentaurs point to inherent heterogeneity in either the processes actingon these objects or materials from which they formed.
