HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT
Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174
This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…
Planet formation in chemically diverse and evolving discs II. Chemical fingerprints in planetary atmospheres
E. Pacetti, D. Turrini, E. Schisano +13
Giant planets form in protoplanetary discs, where the coupled dynamical and chemical evolution of gas and solids determines the composition of the material they accrete. We investi…
Substructures in Planet-Forming Disks with the SKAO
Yinhao Wu, Jessica Speedie, Sebastián Pérez +33
Disks of gas and dust orbiting young stars are the arenas and material reservoirs for planet formation. Over the past decade, multiwavelength observations, from infrared to radio,…
Unveiling Complex Chemistry in Planet-forming Disks with the SKAO
Linda Podio, Lisa Giani, Catherine Walsh +38
The chemical composition of planets is inherited from that of the natal protoplanetary disk at the time of planet formation. In recent years, we have made huge progress in characte…
The Origins of Planets for ArieL (OPAL) Key Science Project: the end-to-end planet formation campaign for the ESA space mission Ariel
Danae Polychroni, Diego Turrini, Romolo Politi +7
The growing body of atmospheric observations of exoplanets from space and ground-based facilities showcases how the great diversity of the planetary population is not limited to th…
Planet formation in chemically diverse and evolving discs -- I. Composition of planetary building blocks
E. Pacetti, E. Schisano, D. Turrini +12
Protoplanetary discs are dynamic environments where the interplay between chemical processes and mass transport shapes the composition of gas and dust available for planet formatio…
