Wave-like warp propagation in circumbinary discs II. Application to KH 15D

Giuseppe Lodato, Stefano Facchini

KH 15D is a protostellar binary system that shows a peculiar light curve. In order to model it, a narrow circumbinary precessing disc has been invoked, but a proper dynamical model…

Wave-like warp propagation in circumbinary discs I. Analytic theory and numerical simulations

Stefano Facchini, Giuseppe Lodato, Daniel J. Price

In this paper we analyse the propagation of warps in protostellar circumbinary discs. We use these systems as a test environment in which to study warp propagation in the bending-w…

The Hot and Energetic Universe: A White Paper presenting the science theme motivating the Athena+ mission

Kirpal Nandra, Didier Barret, Xavier Barcons +237

This White Paper, submitted to the recent ESA call for science themes to define its future large missions, advocates the need for a transformational leap in our understanding of tw…

Protoplanetary Disk Masses from Stars to Brown Dwarfs

Subhanjoy Mohanty, Jane Greaves, Daniel Mortlock +6

We present SCUBA-2 850um observations for 7 very low mass stars (VLMS) and brown dwarfs (BDs): 3 in Taurus, 4 in the TWA, and all classical T Tauri (cTT) analogs. We detect 2 of th…

The GAPS programme with HARPS-N at TNG. I: Observations of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect and characterisation of the transiting system Qatar-1

E. Covino, M. Esposito, M. Barbieri +67

A long-term multi-purpose observational programme has started with HARPS-N@TNG aimed to characterise the global architectural properties of exoplanetary systems. In this first pape…
