MINDS: Complementary inclinations in the binary system HK Tau reveal gas- and ice-phase chemistry

Alice Somigliana, Giulia Perotti, Nicolás T. Kurtovic +18

[Abridged] HK Tau is a roughly equal mass pre-main sequence binary system consisting of a low-inclination primary (57 deg) and an edge-on (83 deg) secondary. We present JWST/MIRI o…

MINDS survey of silicates in T Tauri disks: Correlation between dust and gas

J. Varga, Th. Henning, L. B. F. M. Waters +20

Context. Silicates are key constituents of planet-forming disks and major building blocks of rocky planets. Mid-infrared spectral features of micron-sized silicate grains trace gra…

An archival summary: 15 years of ALMA observations on disks and planet formation

Nicolas T. Kurtovic, Lizxandra Flores-Rivera, Laura M. Perez +15

The Atacama Large (sub-)millimeter Array (ALMA) has been in scientific operations for almost 15 years. We celebrate this achievement by providing a summary of the ``Disks and plane…

The asymmetric carbon-rich chemistry of the planet-forming disk of HD 142527 triggered by late infall

Milou Temmink, Ewine F. van Dishoeck, Alice S. Booth +3

The planet-forming disk of HD 142527 is known for its azimuthally asymmetric dust trap, shadows, and spiral arms. We use new ALMA observations to investigate the molecular composit…

MINDS: Intertwined evolution of dust and gas in large planet-forming disks. A diversity driven by halted pebble drift?

Benoît Tabone, Milou Temmink, Laurens B. F. M. Waters +25

(Abridged) We aim to investigate the inner regions of large and massive disks orbiting T Tauri stars, thought to be progenitors of systems with wide-orbit planets and possible case…

The chemical diversity of giant-planet nurseries as revealed by ALMA

Alice S. Booth, Jenny Calahan, Milou Temmink +9

With the giant exoplanet occurrence rate peaking around stars of 1.5-2 solar masses, there is strong motivation to characterize the disks that set their formation conditions. Obser…
