Scientific paper

We present high resolution near infrared images of the young triple system HV Tau which clearly reveal a circumstellar disk around HV Tau C. The disk is seen nearly edge-on (i ~ 84o), and has a radius of ~ 50 AU. HV Tau AB, a 74 mas binary (Simon et al. 1996), is resolved as well. If HV Tau C is bound to HV Tau AB, these are the first near-IR images of a circumtertiary disk in a young multiple system. Based on observations made at Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope
