Three-dimensional, Time-dependent MHD Simulation of Disk–Magnetosphere–Stellar Wind Interaction in a T Tauri, Protoplanetary System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a three-dimensional, time-dependent MHD simulation of the short-term interaction between a protoplanetary disk and the stellar corona in a T Tauri system.

The Disk Substructures at High Angular Resolution Project (DSHARP). VI. Dust Trapping in Thin-ringed Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
A large fraction of the protoplanetary disks observed with ALMA display multiple well-defined and nearly perfectly circular rings in the continuum, in many cases with substantial peak-to-valley contrast.

Contacts of Water Ice in Protoplanetary Disks—Laboratory Experiments [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Water ice is abundant in protoplanetary disks. Its sticking properties are therefore important during phases of collisional growth. In this work, we study the sticking and rolling of 1.1 mm ice grains at different temperatures.

Kinematic Evidence of an Embedded Protoplanet in HD 142666 Identified by Machine Learning

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Observations of protoplanetary disks have shown that forming exoplanets leave characteristic imprints on the gas and dust of the disk. In the gas, these forming exoplanets cause deviations from Keplerian motion, which can be detected through molecular ...

ALMA Survey of Lupus Protoplanetary Disks. II. Gas Disk Radii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/Sub-Millimeter Array (ALMA) Band 6 observations of a complete sample of protoplanetary disks in the young (∼1–3 Myr) Lupus star-forming region, covering the 1.33 mm continuum and the 12CO, 13CO, and C18O J = 2–1 lines.

Why do protoplanetary disks appear not massive enough to form the known exoplanet population? [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
When and how planets form in protoplanetary disks is still a topic of discussion. Exoplanet detection surveys and protoplanetary disk surveys are now providing results that are leading to new insights.

Systematic Variations of CO Gas Abundance with Radius in Gas-rich Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
CO is the most widely used gas tracer of protoplanetary disks. Its abundance is usually assumed to be an interstellar ratio throughout the warm molecular layer of the disk.

Photoevaporation of Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2008
We present HST/NICMOS Paschen alpha images and low and high resolution IRS spectra of photoevaporating disk-tail systems originally detected at 24 micron near O stars. We find no Paschen alpha emission in any of the systems. The resulting upper limits correspond to about 0.000002-0.000003 solar mass of mass in hydrogen in the tails suggesting that the ...

Streaming Instability in Turbulent Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
The streaming instability for solid particles in protoplanetary disks is reexamined assuming the familiar alpha (α) model for isotropic turbulence. Turbulence always reduces the growth rates of the streaming instability relative to values calculated for ...

Protoplanetary Disks as (Possibly) Viscous Disks [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2017
Abstract Protoplanetary disks are believed to evolve on megayear timescales in a diffusive (viscous) manner as a result of angular momentum transport driven by internal stresses. Here we use a sample of 26 protoplanetary disks resolved by ALMA with measured (dust-based) masses and stellar accretion rates to derive the dimensionless α ...
