Abstract Understanding the material transport and mixing processes in the Solar protoplanetary disk provides important constraints on the origin of chemical and isotopic diversities of our planets. The limited extent of radial transport and mixing between the inner and outer Solar System has been suggested based on a fundamental isotopic dichotomy ...

Carbon In Protoplanetary Disks
The carbon and oxygen content of the solids in protoplanetary disks plays an important role in defining the composition of giant planet atmospheres. I will discuss what we know about the distribution of carbonaceous material in the solar system and discuss potential processes influencing its radial distribution. I will also present modeling results for

The Determination of Protoplanetary Disk Masses [PDF]
In this article we review the methods used to determine the gas and dust masses of protoplanetary disks, with an emphasis on the lesser characterized total gas mass. Our review encompasses all the indirect tracers and the methodology that is be used to isolate the hidden H2 via dust, CO, and HD emission.

exoALMA. I. Science Goals, Project Design, and Data Products
Planet formation is a hugely dynamic process requiring the transport, concentration, and assimilation of gas and dust to form the first planetesimals and cores.

Abstract Astrophysical accretion discs that carry a significant mass compared with their central object are subject to the effect of self‐gravity. In the context of circumstellar discs, this can, for instance, cause fragmentation of the disc gas, and—under suitable conditions—lead to the direct formation of gas‐giant planets.

Conditions for Gravitational Instability in Protoplanetary Disks
Gravitational instability is one of considerable mechanisms to explain the formation of giant planets. We study the gravitational stability for the protoplanetary disks around a protostar.

Debris Disks: Probing Planet Formation
Debris disks are the dust disks found around ~20% of nearby main sequence stars in far-IR surveys. They can be considered as descendants of protoplanetary disks or components of planetary systems, providing valuable information on circumstellar disk ...

Observations of inhomogeneities in protoplanetary disks
In this review I will give a brief overview of the latest observational constraints on the structure and dynamics of protoplanetary disks, with a particular emphasis on the topic of the conference: vortices.

Planetary Migration in Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]
The known exoplanet population displays a great diversity of orbital architectures, and explaining the origin of this is a major challenge for planet formation theories. The gravitational interaction between young planets and their protoplanetary disks provides one way in which planetary orbits can be shaped during the formation epoch.
