A 40 Myr OLD GASEOUS CIRCUMSTELLAR DISK AT 49 CETI: MASSIVE CO-RICH COMET CLOUDS AT YOUNG A-TYPE STARS [PDF]

, 2012
The gaseous molecular disk that orbits the main-sequence A-type star 49 Ceti has been known since 1995, but the stellar age and the origin of the observed carbon monoxide molecules have been unknown.

L1448 IRS3B: Dust Polarization Aligned with Spiral Features, Tracing Gas Flows

The Astrophysical Journal
Circumstellar disk dust polarization in the (sub)millimeter is, for the most part, not from dust grain alignment with magnetic fields but rather indicative of a combination of dust self-scattering with a yet unknown alignment mechanism that is consistent

Exocomets in the circumstellar gas disk of HD 172555 [PDF]

, 2014
The source HD 172555 is a young A7V star surrounded by a debris disk with a gaseous component. Here, we present the detection of variable absorption features detected simultaneously in the Ca II K and H doublet lines (at λ3933 A and λ3968 A).

Modeling Circumstellar Gas Emission around a White Dwarf Using cloudy

The Astronomical Journal
The chemical composition of an extrasolar planet is fundamental to its formation, evolution, and habitability. In this study, we explore a new way to measure the chemical composition of the building blocks of extrasolar planets by measuring the gas ...

Tracing large-scale structures in circumstellar disks with ALMA

, 2012
Planets are supposed to form in circumstellar disks. The gravitational potential of a planet perturbs the disk and leads to characteristic structures, i.e. spiral waves and gaps, in the disk's density profile.

VLTI/GRAVITY Provides Evidence the Young, Substellar Companion HD 136164 Ab Formed Like a “Failed Star”

The Astronomical Journal
Young, low-mass brown dwarfs orbiting early-type stars, with low mass ratios ( q ≲ 0.01), appear to be intrinsically rare and present a formation dilemma: could a handful of these objects be the highest-mass outcomes of “planetary” formation channels ...

Sites of Planet Formation in Binary Systems. II. Double the Disks in DF Tau

The Astronomical Journal
This article presents the latest results of our Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) program to study circumstellar disk characteristics as a function of orbital and stellar properties in a sample of young binary star systems known to host

Dynamics of Circumstellar Disks III: The case of GG Tau A

, 2016
(abridged) We present 2-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations using the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic (SPH) code, VINE, to model a self-gravitating binary system similar to the GG Tau A system.

The Disks In Scorpius–Centaurus Survey (DISCS). I. Four Newly Resolved Debris Disks in Polarized Intensity Light

The Astronomical Journal
The presence of infrared excesses around stars directly correlates with spatially resolved imaging detections of circumstellar disks at both millimeter and optical/near-infrared wavelengths.
