Geometry of dust rings in protoplanetary disks: the case of LkCa 15
Yansong Qian, Yanqin Wu
Dust properties in proto-planetary disks shape the pathways for planet formation. Here, we present a method to measure these properties in moderately inclined dust rings. Our metho…
Expanding the High-z Supernova Frontier: "Wide-Area" JWST Discoveries from the First Two Years of COSMOS-Web
Ori D. Fox, Armin Rest, Justin D. R. Pierel +48
Transient astronomy in the early Universe (z > 2) remains largely unexplored, lying beyond the rest-frame optical spectroscopic reach of most current observatories. Yet this regime…
Bouncing Grains Keep Protoplanetary Disks Bright
Yansong Qian, Yanqin Wu
Proto-planetary disks display the so-called size-luminosity relation, where their mm-wavelength fluxes scale linearly with their emitting areas. This suggests that these disks are…
Shadows Wreak Havocs in Transition Disks
Yansong Qian, Yanqin Wu
We demonstrate that shadows cast on a proto-planetary disk can drive it eccentric. Stellar irradiation dominates heating across much of these disks, so an uneven illumination can h…
Argon in beta Pictoris -- entrapment and release of volatile in disks
Yanqin Wu, Kadin Worthen, Alexis Brandeker +1
Chemical compositions of planets reveal much about their formation environments. Such information is well sought-after in studies of Solar System bodies and extra-solar ones. Here,…
Repelling Planet pairs by Ping-pong Scattering
Yanqin Wu, Renu Malhotra, Yoram Lithwick
The Kepler mission reveals a peculiar trough-peak feature in the orbital spacing of close-in planets near mean-motion resonances: a deficit and an excess that are a couple percent…
