Filament Formation due to Diffusive Instabilities in Dusty Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the finding of a new, local diffusion instability in a protoplanetary disk which can operate in a dust fluid, subject to mass diffusion, shear viscosity, and dust–gas drag, provided the diffusivity, viscosity, or both, decrease sufficiently ...

SCExAO/CHARIS Near-infrared Scattered-light Imaging and Integral Field Spectropolarimetry of the AB Aurigae Protoplanetary System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze near-infrared integral field spectropolarimetry of the AB Aurigae protoplanetary disk and protoplanet (AB Aur b), obtained with SCExAO/CHARIS in 22 wavelength channels covering the J , H , and K passbands ( λ _0 = 1.1–2.4 μ m) over angular ...

JWST MIRI MRS Images of Disk Winds, Water, and CO in an Edge-on Protoplanetary Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present JWST MIRI MRS observations of the edge-on protoplanetary disk around the young subsolar-mass star Tau 042021, acquired as part of the Cycle 1 GO program “Mapping Inclined Disk Astrochemical Signatures.” These data resolve the mid-IR spatial ...

Low-mass Stars: Their Protoplanetary Disk Lifetime Distribution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
While most protoplanetary disks lose their gas within less than 10 Myr, individual disk lifetimes vary from 5 Myr. The next challenge is to quantitatively link the diversity of disk lifetimes to the diversity in planets.
