Gas Flows and Mass Accretion Rates in Eight Dippers: HD 142666, HD 143006, HD 145718, V935 Sco, DoAr 25, EPIC 204638512, EPIC 205151387, and EPIC 203850058

Michael L. Sitko, Ray W. Russell, Korash D. Assani +2

One of the scenarios used to explain the dipper phenomenon in stars is having the innermost disk regions being close to the line of sight to the star - inclined greater than 60 deg…

JWST Edge-on Disk Ice (JEDIce): Vibrationally hot, rotationally cold H in the outer disk of Oph 163131 non-thermally excited by UV and cosmic rays

Korash Assani, Zhi-Yun Li, Jennifer B. Bergner +19

Constraining ionization and excitation processes in protoplanetary disks is essential for understanding the chemical structure and evolution of disk material, shaping planet format…

JOYS: Launching and destruction of dust in protostellar jets. The case of BHR71-IRS1 with JWST/MIRI

Łukasz Tychoniec, Logan Francis, Maria Gabriela Navarro +24

Protostellar winds can theoretically lift solids from the planet-forming disks, but direct evidence for launched dust has been scarce so far. Numerous atomic lines that are unique…

JOYS: A JWST/MIRI survey of the evolution of H winds and jets from low-mass protostars

L. Francis, Ł. Tychoniec, E. F. van Dishoeck +20

Protostellar outflows display wide-angle winds and collimated jets, the magnetocentrifugal launching of which enables accretion onto the protostar. The majority of the outflow mass…

Mid-infrared extinction curve for protostellar envelopes from JWST-detected embedded jet emission: the case of TMC1A

K. D. Assani, Z. -Y. Li, J. P. Ramsey +15

Context: Dust grains are key components of the interstellar medium and play a central role in star formation, acting as catalysts for chemical reactions and as building blocks of p…

Dracula's Chivito: discovery of a large edge-on protoplanetary disk with Pan-STARRS

Ciprian T. Berghea, Ammar Bayyari, Michael L. Sitko +6

We report the serendipitous discovery of a large edge-on protoplanetary disk associated with the infrared source IRAS 23077+6707. The disk's apparent size in the Pan-STARRS (PS1) i…
