The dry and carbon poor inner disk of TW Hya: evidence for a massive icy dust trap

Arthur D. Bosman, Andrea Banzatti

Gas giants accrete their envelopes from the gas and dust of proto-planetary disks, so it is important to determine the composition of the inner few AU, where most giant planets are…

Chemical and kinematic structure of extremely high-velocity molecular jets in the Serpens Main star-forming region

Łukasz Tychoniec, Charles L. H. Hull, Lars E. Kristensen +3

The fastest molecular component to the protostellar outflows -- extremely high-velocity (EHV) molecular jets -- are still puzzling since they are seen only rarely. The first aim is…
