Spectropolarimetry and the Study of Circumstellar Disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Circumstellar disks play an important role in many stages of the evolution of stars. However, it is only possible to directly image circumstellar disks for a few of the nearest stars. For massive stars, the situation is even more difficult, as they are on average further away than the more numerous low mass stars.

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.

Confined Chemistry in Space: Zeolite‐Supported Fe13 Nanoclusters Modulate CS Reactivity

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
The study explores how an Fe13 cluster confined in chabazite reshapes the reaction of CS and H2 under astrochemical conditions. Confinement promotes C–S bond cleavage over hydrogenation, directing chemistry toward CH4 and H2S formation. Additional CS enables CS2 and C2 species. Microkinetic analysis identifies protoplanetary environments where zeolites

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 ...

Modelling and observations of molecules in discs around young stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis contains a study of molecules within circumstellar discs around young stars. Firstly, the chemistry of a disc around a young, Class 0 protostar is modelled.

Exploring the Effects of Reduced Gravitational Field Impacts on Convective Heat Transfer: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesHeat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 764-774, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This review explores the impact of gravitational instability on convective heat transfer, integrating existing research results and theoretical models. Gravitational instability is vital in promoting or hindering convective actions in different systems, such as atmospheric events, ocean currents, and industrial processes.

Satellites and Small Bodies With ALMA: Insights Into Solar System Formation and Evolution

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Our understanding of the formation and evolution of planetary systems has made major advances in the past decade. This progress has been driven in large part by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), which has given us an unprecedented view of solar system bodies themselves, and of the structure and chemistry of forming ...
