Tracing episodic accretion with NOEMA: FU Orionis-type stars and their millimeter environment [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
The earliest phases of star formation are characterised by intense mass accretion from the circumstellar disk to the central star. One group of lowmass young stellar objects, FU Orionis-type stars (FUors) exhibit accretion rate peaks accompanied by ...

Grain Growth and Dust Segregation Revealed by Multiwavelength Analysis of the Class I Protostellar Disk WL 17

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The first step toward planet formation is grain growth from (sub)micrometer to millimeter/centimeter sizes. Grain growth has been reported not only in Class II protoplanetary disks but also in Class 0/I protostellar envelopes.

Avalanches and the Distribution of Reconnection Events in Magnetized Circumstellar Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Cosmic rays produced by young stellar objects can potentially alter the ionization structure, heating budget, chemical composition, and accretion activity in circumstellar disks.

Mass Accretion Processes in Young Stellar Objects: Role of Intense Flaring Activity

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
According to the magnetospheric accretion scenario, young low-mass stars are surrounded by circumstellar disks which they interact with through accretion of mass. The accretion builds up the star to its nal mass and is also believed to power the mass out

The Apparent Absence of Forward Scattering in the HD 53143 Debris Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
HD 53143 is a mature Sun-like star and host to a broad disk of dusty debris, including a cold outer ring of planetesimals near 90 au. Unlike most other inclined debris disks imaged at visible wavelengths, the cold disk around HD 53143 appears as ...

Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). XIII. Aligned Disks with Nonsettled Dust around the Newly Resolved Class 0 Protobinary R CrA IRAS 32

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Young protostellar binary systems, with expected ages less than ∼10 ^5 yr, are little modified since birth, providing key clues to binary formation and evolution. We present a first look at the young, Class 0 binary protostellar system R CrA IRAS 32 from

Long-term optical variability of high-mass X-ray binaries

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Systems known as Be/X-ray binaries form the most numerous group of high-mass X-ray binaries. Their long-term optical and infrared variability reflects the evolution of the circumstellar disk around the luminous companion.

Polarization in the GG Tau Ring—Confronting Dust Self-scattering, Dust Mechanical and Magnetic Alignment, Spirals, and Dust Grain Drift

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We report Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) polarization observations at 3 and 0.9 mm toward the GG Tau A system. In the ring, the percentage is relatively homogeneous at 3 mm, being 1.2%, while it exhibits a clear radial variation at 0.

The ALMA Survey of Gas Evolution of PROtoplanetary Disks (AGE-PRO). VIII. The Impact of External Photoevaporation on Disk Masses and Radii in Upper Scorpius

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Protoplanetary disk evolution can be deeply influenced by the UV radiation emitted by neighboring massive stars (mainly of spectral types O and B). We show that the process of external photoevaporation , which causes an outside-in depletion of disk ...

Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). XVII. A Compact but Structured Keplerian Disk and Large-scale Streamers Revealed in the Class I Protostellar System IRAS 04169+2702

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present high-resolution (∼0 $\mathop{.}\limits^{^{\prime\prime} }$ 05; 8 au) dust continuum and molecular line observations toward the Class I protostellar system IRAS 04169+2702 in the Taurus B213 region, as part of the Atacama Large Millimeter ...
