Chemical Processes in Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2010
We have developed a high resolution combined physical and chemical model of a protoplanetary disk surrounding a typical T Tauri star. Our aims were to use our model to calculate the chemical structure of disks on small scales (sub-milli-arcsecond in the ...

Chemistry in Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2013
This comprehensive review summarizes our current understanding of the evolution of gas, solids and molecular ices in protoplanetary disks. Key findings related to disk physics and chemistry, both observationally and theoretically, are highlighted.

Photoprocesses in protoplanetary disks [PDF]

open access: yesFaraday Discussions, 2006
Circumstellar disks are exposed to intense ultraviolet radiation from the young star. In the inner disks, the UV radiation can be enhanced by more than seven orders of magnitude compared with the average interstellar field, resulting in a physical and chemical structure that resembles that of a dense photon-dominated region (PDR). This intense UV field

HNC IN PROTOPLANETARY DISKS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2015
The distributions and abundances of small organics in protoplanetary disks are potentially powerful probes of disk physics and chemistry. HNC is a common probe of dense interstellar regions and the target of this study. We use the Submillimeter Array (SMA) to observe HNC 3--2 towards the protoplanetary disks around the T Tauri star TW Hya and the ...

Volatiles in Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Volatiles are compounds with low sublimation temperatures, and they make up most of the condensible mass in typical planet-forming environments. They consist of relatively small, often hydrogenated, molecules based on the abundant elements carbon, nitrogen and oxygen.

The Inner Regions of Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2010
To understand how planetary systems form in the dusty disks around pre-main-sequence stars, a detailed knowledge of the structure and evolution of these disks is required. Although this is reasonably well understood for the regions of the disk beyond about 1 AU, the structure of these disks inward of 1 AU remains a puzzle. This is partly because it is

Demographics of Protoplanetary Disks: A Simulated Population of Edge-on Systems

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The structure of protoplanetary disks plays an essential role in planet formation. A disk that is highly inclined, or “edge-on,” is of particular interest since its geometry provides a unique opportunity to study the disk’s vertical structure and radial ...

The effect of a planet on the dust distribution in a 3D protoplanetary disk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Aims: We investigate the behaviour of dust in protoplanetary disks under the action of gas drag in the presence of a planet. Our goal is twofold: to determine the spatial distribution of dust depending on grain size and planet mass, and therefore to ...
