First Detection of the Simplest Organic Acid in a Protoplanetary Disk [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
The formation of asteroids, comets, and planets occurs in the interior of protoplanetary disks during the early phase of star formation. Consequently, the chemical composition of the disk might shape the properties of the emerging planetary system.

Kinematic Evidence of an Embedded Protoplanet in HD 142666 Identified by Machine Learning

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Observations of protoplanetary disks have shown that forming exoplanets leave characteristic imprints on the gas and dust of the disk. In the gas, these forming exoplanets cause deviations from Keplerian motion, which can be detected through molecular ...

An ALMA Survey of Protoplanetary Disks in the $\sigma$ Orionis Cluster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The $\sigma$ Orionis cluster is important for studying protoplanetary disk evolution, as its intermediate age ($\sim$3-5 Myr) is comparable to the median disk lifetime. We use ALMA to conduct a high-sensitivity survey of dust and gas in 92 protoplanetary

Planetesimal formation during protoplanetary disk buildup [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Context. Models of dust coagulation and subsequent planetesimal formation are usually computed on the backdrop of an already fully formed protoplanetary disk model.

The Radial Distribution of Dust Particles in the HL Tau Disk from ALMA and VLA Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Understanding planet formation requires one to discern how dust grows in protoplanetary disks. An important parameter to measure in disks is the maximum dust grain size present.

Midplane temperature and outer edge of the protoplanetary disk around HD 163296 [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Knowledge of the midplane temperature of protoplanetary disks is one of the key ingredients in theories of dust growth and planet formation. However, direct measurement of this quantity is complicated, and often depends on the fitting of complex models ...

Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.

Development of 1D Non-ideal MHD Simulation Code Towards understanding Long-term Evolution of Protoplanetary Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We developed a one-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation code to investigate the long-term evolution of protoplanetary disks with low computational cost.

Upper limits on CH3OH in the HD 163296 protoplanetary disk [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Context. Methanol (CH3OH) is at the root of organic ice chemistry in protoplanetary disks. Its connection to prebiotic chemistry and its role in the chemical environment of the disk midplane make it an important target for disk chemistry studies. However,

Parent body thermal metamorphism of enstatite chondrites: Disentangling the effects of shock melting

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Enstatite chondrites (ECs) formed on at least two parent bodies, EH and EL. After the accretion of the EC parent bodies, EC material was subjected to varying degrees of parent body thermal metamorphism (measured by petrologic types 3–6), due to heat released by radioactive isotope decay.
