JWST/MIRI Reveals the Evolution from Molecular to Atomic Disk Winds
Naman S. Bajaj, Ilaria Pascucci, Sylvie Cabrit +10
The evolution and dispersal of protoplanetary disks--governed by accretion, magnetically launched jets and winds, and photoevaporative winds--fundamentally shape planetary systems.…
Chemical Divergence and Water Depletion: Gas Properties of Evolved Upper Scorpius Disks Revealed by JWST/MIRI
Eshan Raul, Ke Zhang, Abygail Waggoner +25
Tracing the chemical evolution of protoplanetary disks over time requires observations of disks at different ages. However, most JWST/MIRI surveys published to date have targeted y…
Molecular Similarity and Water Diversity in Coeval Binary Disks: JWST/MIRI Observations of Sz 65 and Sz 66
Jinghuai Yao, Ke Zhang, Andrea Banzatti +10
We present JWST/MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrometer spectra of the wide-separation (projected separation au) binary protoplanetary disks Sz 65 (K7; ) and Sz…
Class I/II Jets with JWST: Mass loss rates, Asymmetries, and Binary induced Wigglings
Naman S. Bajaj, Ilaria Pascucci, Tracy L. Beck +11
We present JWST NIRSpec spectro-imaging observations of jets from four edge-on protoplanetary disks that exhibit clear signatures of MHD disk winds. Bipolar jets are detected and s…
JWST/NIRSpec Reveals the Nested Morphology of Disk Winds from Young Stars
Ilaria Pascucci, Tracy L. Beck, Sylvie Cabrit +15
Radially extended disk winds could be the key to unlocking how protoplanetary disks accrete and how planets form and migrate. A distinctive characteristic is their nested morpholog…
JWST captures a sudden stellar outburst and inner disk wall destruction
Chengyan Xie, Ilaria Pascucci, Dingshan Deng +6
We present JWST/MIRI observations of T~Cha, a highly variable (3-5\,mag) accreting Sun-like star surrounded by a disk with a large (\,au) dust gap. We find that t…
Modeling JWST MIRI-MRS Observations of T Cha: Mid-IR Noble Gas Emission Tracing a Dense Disk Wind
Andrew D. Sellek, Naman S. Bajaj, Ilaria Pascucci +8
[Ne II] 12.81 emission is a well-used tracer of protoplanetary disk winds due to its blueshifted line profile. MIRI-MRS recently observed T Cha, detecting this line a…
JWST MIRI/MRS Observations of T Cha: Discovery of a Spatially Resolved Disk Wind
Naman S. Bajaj, Ilaria Pascucci, Uma Gorti +8
Understanding when and how circumstellar disks disperse is crucial to constrain planet formation and migration. Thermal winds powered by high-energy stellar photons have long been…
FORCAST imaging of two small nearby Clusters: The Coronet and B59
G. Sandell, B. Reipurth, W. D. Vacca +1
We present mid infrared imaging of two young clusters, the Coronet in the CrA cloud core and B59 in the Pipe Nebula, using the FORCAST camera on the Stratospheric Observatory for I…
