IPA. Accretion rate of a low-mass Class 0 protostar, measured via mid-infrared fluorescent OH emission
Dan M. Watson, Mayank Narang, Caeley V. Pittman +41
The earliest stages of star formation are highlighted by complex interactions between accretion, outflow, and radiative processes, which shape the chemical and physical environment…
Measuring Dust Masses of Protoplanetary Disks in Serpens and L1641/L1647 with ALMA
Luisa F. Zamudio-Ruvalcaba, Catherine C. Espaillat, Álvaro Ribas +1
Protoplanetary disks are an essential component of the planet-formation process. The amount of dust and gas in the disk constrains the number and size of planets that can form in a…
JWST Reveals Carbon-rich Chemistry in a Transitional Disk
M. Volz, C. C. Espaillat, C. V. Pittman +6
We present JWST-MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrometer (MRS) observations of the Classical T Tauri stars GM Aur and RX J1615.3-3255 (J1615), both hosting transitional disks. Despite t…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
The ODYSSEUS Survey. Spatial correlation of magnetospheric inclinations points to parsec-scale star-cloud connection
Caeley V. Pittman, Catherine C. Espaillat, Thanawuth Thanathibodee +3
The properties of stars and planets are shaped by the initial conditions of their natal clouds. However, the spatial scales over which the initial conditions can exert a significan…
The ODYSSEUS Survey. Using accretion and stellar rotation to reveal the star-disk connection in T Tauri stars
Caeley V. Pittman, C. C. Espaillat, Zhaohuan Zhu +4
Classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) exhibit strong variability over timescales of minutes to decades. However, much theoretical work assumes that CTTS are in stable spin states. Here, w…
