Temperature Structure in the Inner Regions of Protoplanetary Disks: Inefficient Accretion Heating Controlled by Nonideal Magnetohydrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
The gas temperature in protoplanetary disks (PPDs) is determined by a combination of irradiation heating and accretion heating, with the latter conventionally attributed to turbulent dissipation. However, recent studies have suggested that the inner disk

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.

The ALMA Survey of Gas Evolution of PROtoplanetary Disks (AGE-PRO). X. Dust Substructures, Disk Geometries, and Dust-disk Radii

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We perform visibility fitting to the dust continuum Band 6 1.3 mm data of the 30 protoplanetary disks in the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Survey of Gas Evolution of PROtoplanetary Disks (AGE-PRO) Large Program.

Modeling and interpretation of images*

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Imaging protoplanetary disks is a challenging but rewarding task. It is challenging because of the glare of the central star outshining the weak signal from the disk at shorter wavelengths and because of the limited spatial resolution at longer ...

Photoprocesses in protoplanetary disks

open access: yes, 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 ...

Effect of dust grain porosity on the appearance of protoplanetary disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We theoretically analyze protoplanetary disks consisting of porous dust grains. In the analysis of observations of protoplanetary disks the dust phase is often assumed to consist of spherical grains, allowing one to apply the Mie scattering formalism ...

Evolution of protoplanetary disks from their taxonomy in scattered light: spirals, rings, cavities, and shadows [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Context. Dozens of protoplanetary disks have been imaged in scattered light during the last decade. Aims. The variety of brightness, extension, and morphology from this census motivates a taxonomical study of protoplanetary disks in polarimetric light to

The Qingzhen reaction, a fine‐grained mineral assemblage associated with djerfisherite in some EH3 chondrites: Alteration on the EH parent body

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Enstatite chondrites formed under extremely reducing conditions in the protoplanetary disk. They are derived from two or more parent bodies, EH and EL, and both EH and EL groups contain petrologic type 3–6 samples. The rare lithophile‐ and halogen‐bearing sulfide, djerfisherite, occurs in low abundance in enstatite chondrites, most frequently ...

Light Echoes of Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Light echoes offer a means of studying protoplanetary disks, including their geometry and composition, even when they are not spatially resolved. We present a test of this approach applied specifically to optically thick, geometrically flared disks ...

Radiation hydrodynamics including irradiation and adaptive mesh refinement with AZEuS. I. Methods

open access: yes, 2014
Aims. The importance of radiation to the physical structure of protoplanetary disks cannot be understated. However, protoplanetary disks evolve with time, and so to understand disk evolution and by association, disk structure, one should solve the ...
