Study of protoplanetary nebulae [PDF]
AbstractWe have performed 3D hydrodynamic simulations of a symmetrical jet ejection following previous works (Raga et al. 2009, Riera et al. 2014, Velázquez et al. 2014). The jet is emitted from a binary system in elliptical orbit, and its direction changes describing a precession cone.

Fast outflows in protoplanetary nebulae and young planetary nebulae observed by Herschel/HIFI [PDF]
Context. Fast outflows and their interaction with slow shells (generally known as the fossil circumstellar envelope of asymptotic giant branch stars) play an important role in the structure and kinematics of protoplanetary and planetary nebulae (pPNe, PNe).

Lifetime of the Outer Solar System Nebula From Carbonaceous Chondrites [PDF]
The evolution and lifetime of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) play a central role in the formation and architecture of planetary systems. Astronomical observations suggest that PPDs evolve in two timescales, accreting onto the star for up to several million years (Myr) followed by gas dissipation within <1 Myr.

Evolution of protoplanetary nebulae
Model spectra of protoplanetary nebulae have been calculated assuming that mass loss on the asymptotic giant branch terminates when the hydrogen envelope is almost totally depleted. The models predict spectral characteristics of protoplanetary nebulae which can be used to search for new candidates of protoplanetary nebulae in the IRAS Low Resolution ...

Enstatite chondrites are a small clan of meteorites, only ~ 1% out of all meteorite collection. However, they are the most reduced meteorites and have almost identical isotopic compositions to those of the Earth, suggestive of significant contributions ...

Fast accretion of small planetesimals by protoplanetary cores [PDF]
We explore the dynamics of small planetesimals coexisting with massive protoplanetary cores in a gaseous nebula. Gas drag strongly affects the motion of small bodies leading to the decay of their eccentricities and inclinations, which are excited by the gravity of protoplanetary cores. Drag acting on larger ($\gtrsim 1$ km), high velocity planetesimals

A search for CO+ in planetary nebulae [PDF]
We have carried out a systematic search for the molecular ion CO+ in a sample of 8 protoplanetary and planetary nebulae in order to determine the origin of the unexpectedly strong HCO+ emission previously detected in these sources. An understanding of the HCO+ chemistry may provide direct clues to the physical and chemical evolution of planetary ...

Breathing Life Into Dead-Zones
The terrestrial planet formation regions of protoplanetary disks are generally sufficiently cold to be con- sidered non-magnetized and, consequently, dynamically inactive.

Isolating Dust and Free–Free Emission in ONC Proplyds with ALMA Band 3 Observations
The Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) hosts protoplanetary disks experiencing external photoevaporation by the cluster’s intense UV field. These “proplyds” are comprised of a disk surrounded by an ionization front.

Mechanical Modification of Chondrule Fine-grained Rims by Dusty Nebular Shocks
The mechanical processes that convert an initially fluffy chondrule fine-grained rim (FGR) into a more compact structure remain poorly characterized.
