Circumstellar Disks and Outflows in Turbulent Molecular Cloud Cores: Possible Formation Mechanism for Misaligned Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the formation of circumstellar disks and outflows subsequent to the collapse of molecular cloud cores with the magnetic field and turbulence.

CO2 Ocean Bistability on Terrestrial Exoplanets

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 127, Issue 10, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Cycling of carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and interior of rocky planets can stabilize global climate and enable planetary surface temperatures above freezing over geologic time. However, variations in global carbon budget and unstable feedback cycles between planetary sub‐systems may destabilize the climate of rocky exoplanets toward ...

The harsh environment where exoplanets live

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 343, Issue 4, May 2022., 2022
Abstract The X‐ray and Extreme Ultraviolet (XUV) actvity of the Sun has determined important effects on the planets around it. In particular, high doses of X‐rays, flares, and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) combined with masses and sizes of the planets and the shielding action of the planetary magnetic fields have determined the diverse habitability of ...

Magnetic Field and Early Evolution of Circumstellar Disks [PDF]

open access: yesPublications Astronomical Society of Australia, 2016
The magnetic field plays a central role in the formation and evolution of circumstellar disks. The magnetic field connects the rapidly rotating central region with the outer envelope and extracts angular momentum from the central region during ...

Visible to Mid‐Infrared Optical Constants of Orthopyroxenes

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Radiative transfer models of remotely acquired infrared spectra result in quantitative identification of minerals on planetary surfaces. Optical constants, or the real (n) and imaginary (k) indices of refraction are necessary inputs in such models.

Hot Jupiters: Origins, Structure, Atmospheres

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 126, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021
Abstract We provide a brief review of many aspects of the planetary physics of hot Jupiters. Our aim is to cover most of the major areas of current study while providing the reader with additional references for more detailed follow‐up. We first discuss giant planet formation and subsequent orbital evolution via disk‐driven torques or dynamical ...

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 ...

Magnetic fields in circumstellar disks: The potential of Zeeman observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Context. Recent high angular resolution polarimetric continuum observations of circumstellar disks provide new insights into their magnetic field. However, direct constraints are limited to the plane of sky component of the magnetic field.

Spiral Arms, Infall, and Misalignment of the Circumbinary Disk from the Circumstellar Disks in the Protostellar Binary System L1551 NE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We report the ALMA Cycle 2 observations of the Class I binary protostellar system L1551 NE in the 0.9 mm continuum, C18O (3–2), 13CO (3–2), SO (78–67), and CS (7–6) emission.

BANYAN. VIII. NEW LOW-MASS STARS AND BROWN DWARFS WITH CANDIDATE CIRCUMSTELLAR DISKS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present the results of a search for new circumstellar disks around low-mass stars and brown dwarfs with spectral types >K5 that are confirmed or candidate members of nearby young moving groups. Our search input sample was drawn from the BANYAN surveys
