Emission from Multiple Molecular Isotopologues in a High-inclination Protoplanetary Disk

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present a MIRI-MRS spectrum of the high-inclination protoplanetary disk around the solar-mass (K0) star MY Lup, obtained as part of the JWST Disk Infrared Spectral Chemistry Survey (JDISCS). The spectrum shows an unusually weak water emission spectrum

Structure and evolution of protoplanetary disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present here a few thoughts on how high-angular resolution observations can give clues to some properties of protoplanetary disks that are fundamental to theories of planet formation.

Search for pre‐accretionary irradiation effects in calcium‐aluminum inclusions from the CV3 chondrite Allende

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 2, Page 247-272, February 2025.
Abstract Calcium‐aluminum‐rich inclusions (CAIs) are the first objects that formed in the solar accretion disk and therefore provide valuable insights into the evolution of the early solar system. A long‐standing question regarding this earliest formative period relates to the storage of CAIs in the 1–4 Myr time period between their formation and later

Dust Coagulation Reconciles Protoplanetary Disk Observations with the Vertical Shear Instability. I. Dust Coagulation and the VSI Dead Zone

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Protoplanetary disks exhibit a vertical gradient in angular momentum, rendering them susceptible to the vertical shear instability (VSI). The most important condition for the onset of this mechanism is a short timescale of thermal relaxation (≲0.1 ...

Orbital Evolution of Moons in Weakly Accreting Circumplanetary Disks

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the formation of hot and massive circumplanetary disks (CPDs) and the orbital evolution of satellites formed in these disks. Because of the comparatively small size-scale of the sub-disk, quick magnetic diffusion prevents the ...

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.

Zirconium isotope composition indicates s‐process depletion in samples returned from asteroid Ryugu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 1, Page 3-16, January 2025.
Abstract Nucleosynthetic isotope variations are powerful tracers to determine genetic relationships between meteorites and planetary bodies. They can help to link material collected by space missions to known meteorite groups. The Hayabusa 2 mission returned samples from the Cb‐type asteroid (162173) Ryugu.

Uncertainties in water chemistry in disks: An application to TW Hya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Context. This paper discusses the sensitivity of water lines to chemical processes and radiative transfer for the protoplanetary disk around TW Hya. The study focuses on the Herschel spectral range in the context of new line detections with the PACS ...

Evidence for Magnetically‐Driven Accretion in the Distal Solar System

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2024.
Abstract Paleomagnetic measurements of meteorites indicate that magnetic fields existed in the inner solar nebula capable of driving accretion at rates similar to those observed for young stellar objects with protoplanetary disks. However, the field strength in the solar system beyond ∼7 astronomical units (AU) and its role in accretion remain poorly ...

Exploring the Complex Ionization Environment of the Turbulent DM Tau Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Ionization drives important chemical and dynamical processes within protoplanetary disks, including the formation of organics and water in the cold midplane and the transportation of material via accretion and magnetohydrodynamic flows.
