Ring formation by coagulation of dust aggregates in early phase of disk evolution around a protostar

Satoshi Ohashi, Hiroshi Kobayashi, Riouhei Nakatani +6

Ring structures are observed by (sub-)millimeter dust continuum emission in various circumstellar disks from early stages of Class 0 and I to late stage of Class II young stellar o…

Formation of multiple-planet systems in resonant chains around M dwarfs

Yu-Chia Lin, Yuji Matsumoto, Pin-Gao Gu

Recent observations have revealed the existence of multiple-planet systems composed of Earth-mass planets around late M dwarfs. Most of their orbits are close to commensurabilities…

Stability analysis of three exoplanet systems

J. P. Marshall, J. Horner, R. A. Wittenmyer +2

The orbital solutions of published multi-planet systems are not necessarily dynamically stable on timescales comparable to the lifetime of the system as a whole. For this reason, d…

Stratified and vertically-shearing streaming instabilities in protoplanetary disks

Min-Kai Lin

Under the right conditions, the streaming instability between imperfectly coupled dust and gas is a powerful mechanism for planetesimal formation as it can concentrate dust grains…

An enhanced slope in the transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-104b

G. Chen, E. Palle, H. Parviainen +25

We present the optical transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-104b based on one transit observed by the blue and red channels of the DBSP spectrograph at the Palomar 200-inc…

Dynamics of Small Bodies in Orbits Between Jupiter and Saturn

Andrew C. Roberts, Marco A. Muñoz-Gutiérrez

We examine the dynamics of small bodies in orbits similar to that of comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1, i.e. near-circular orbits between Jupiter and Saturn. As of late 2019, there…

Kinematical signs of dust trapping and feedback in a local pressure bump in the protoplanetary disk around HD 142527 revealed with ALMA

Hsi-Wei Yen, Pin-Gao Gu

We analyzed the archival data of the continuum emission at six wavelengths from 3 to 0.4 mm and 13CO and C18O (1-0, 2-1, and 3-2) lines in the protoplanetary disk around HD 142527…

Detection of Cyclopropenylidene on Titan with ALMA

Conor A. Nixon, Alexander E. Thelen, Martin A. Cordiner +7

We report the first detection on Titan of the small cyclic molecule cyclopropenylidene (c-C3H2) from high sensitivity spectroscopic observations made with the Atacama Large Millime…

Inner dusty regions of protoplanetary discs -- II. Dust dynamics driven by radiation pressure and disc winds

Dejan Vinković, Miljenko Čemeljić

We explore dust flow in the hottest parts of protoplanetary discs using the forces of gravity, gas drag and radiation pressure. Our main focus is on the optically thin regions of d…

ALMA Observations of the Inner Cavity in the Protoplanetary Disk around Sz 84

Jun Hashimoto, Takayuki Muto, Ruobing Dong +5

We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of a protoplanetary disk around the T Tauri star Sz~84 and analyses of the structures of the inner cavit…

Ejection of close-in super-Earths around low-mass stars in the giant impact stage

Yuji Matsumoto, Pin-Gao Gu, Eiichiro Kokubo +2

Earth-sized planets were observed in close-in orbits around M dwarfs. While more and more planets are expected to be uncovered around M dwarfs, theories of their formation and dyna…

The Transient Jupiter Trojan-Like Orbit of P/2019 LD2 (ATLAS)

Henry H. Hsieh, Alan Fitzsimmons, Bojan Novakovic +2

Comet P/2019 LD2 has orbital elements currently resembling those of a Jupiter Trojan, and therefore superficially appears to represent a unique opportunity to study the volatile co…

A Machine Learning model to infer planet masses from gaps observed in protoplanetary disks

Sayantan Auddy, Min-Kai Lin

Observations of bright protoplanetary disks often show annular gaps in their dust emission. One interpretation of these gaps is disk-planet interaction. If so, fitting models of pl…

Migrating Low-Mass Planets in Inviscid Dusty Protoplanetary Discs

He-Feng Hsieh, Min-Kai Lin

Disc-driven planet migration is integral to the formation of planetary systems. In standard, gas-dominated protoplanetary discs, low-mass planets or planetary cores undergo rapid i…

Multi-wavelength, spatially resolved modelling of HD 48682's debris disc

S. Hengst, J. P. Marshall, J. Horner +1

Asteroids and comets (planetesimals) are created in gas- and dust-rich protoplanetary discs. The presence of these planetesimals around main-sequence stars is usually inferred from…

Dust Populations in the Iconic Vega Planetary System Resolved by ALMA

Luca Matrà, William R. F. Dent, David J. Wilner +9

The Vega planetary system hosts the archetype of extrasolar Kuiper belts, and is rich in dust from the sub-au region out to 100's of au, suggesting intense dynamical activity. We p…

Dust masses of young disks: constraining the initial solid reservoir for planet formation

Łukasz Tychoniec, Carlo F. Manara, Giovanni P. Rosotti +7

In recent years evidence has been building that planet formation starts early, in the first 0.5 Myr. Studying the dust masses available in young disks enables understanding…
