Dust distribution in circumstellar disks harboring multi-planet systems

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Theoretical formation models and exoplanet detection surveys indicate that systems with multiple giant planets are common. Aims. We investigate how multiple super-thermal-mass planets embedded in a circumstellar disk shape the dust distribution ...

Atacama Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (AtLAST) science: Our Galaxy [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesOpen Research Europe
As we learn more about the multi-scale interstellar medium (ISM) of our Galaxy, we develop a greater understanding for the complex relationships between the large-scale diffuse gas and dust in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs), how it moves, how it is ...

Hα Emission among Evolved FGKM Stars: A Compendium from the Literature

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Emission in the wings of the H α line among late-type giant stars occurs as a consequence of conditions in their chromospheres. Data from the literature have been used to document the incidence of H α emission among Population I giant stars as a function

Ring-gap Structures in the Class I Circumstellar Disk of CrA IRS 2 Associated with the Magnetic Flux-driven Bubble

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Recent Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations with 0 $\mathop{.}\limits^{^{\prime\prime} }$ 1 resolution have revealed characteristic substructures in circumstellar disks around young Class I sources, providing clues to the ...

Deep Search for a Scattered Light Dust Halo Around Vega with the Hubble Space Telescope

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present a provisory scattered-light detection of the Vega debris disk using deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) coronagraphy (PID 16666). At only 7.7 pc, Vega is immensely important in debris disk studies both for its prominence and also because it ...

Azimuthal Dust Polarization from Aerodynamically Aligned Grains as Evidence for the Streaming Instability in Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
(Sub)millimeter dust polarization in protoplanetary disks has revealed the presence of large (∼100  μ m) dust grains that are aligned along their long axis following the azimuthal direction of the disk.

Resolution and calibration effects in high contrast polarimetric imaging of circumstellar scattering regions

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Many circumstellar dust scattering regions have been detected and investigated with polarimetric imaging. However, the quantitative determination of the intrinsic polarization and of dust properties is difficult because of complex observational ...

Probing Dust and Gas Properties Using Ringed Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
How rapidly a planet grows in mass and how far it may park from the host star depend sensitively on two nondimensional parameters: Stokes number St and turbulent α .
