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…
Vanishing Refractories: Tracing Dust Evolution in the BP Tau Protoplanetary Disk
Marbely Micolta, Justin Svarc, Nuria Calvet +4
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the dust of BP Tau's protoplanetary disk. We use new optical spectra of BP Tau, taken with the Magellan/MIKE spectrograph in tandem with a…
A New Look at Disk Winds and External Photoevaporation in the -Orionis Cluster
K. Maucó, C. F. Manara, A. Bayo +12
Disk winds play a crucial role in the evolution of protoplanetary disks. Typical conditions for star and planet formation are in regions with intermediate or strong UV radiation fi…
High Mass Inner Regions Found in Five Outbursting Sources
Jenny K. Calahan, Edwin A. Bergin, Merel van't Hoff +3
Young stellar objects are thought to commonly undergo sudden accretion events that result in a rise in bolometric luminosity. These outbursts likely coincide with the onset of plan…
Evidence for Dust Depletion in a Misaligned Protoplanetary Disk with JWST
C. C. Espaillat, T. Thanathibodee, Z. Zhu +12
Here we report the detection of dust depletion in a misaligned inner disk around UX Tau A using JWST MIRI spectra. Mid-infrared (MIR) continuum "seesaw" variability was detected in…
Rotational Evolution of Classical T Tauri Stars: Models and Observations
Javier Serna, Giovanni Pinzón, Jesús Hernández +17
We developed a grid of stellar rotation models for low-mass and solar-type Classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) (). These models incorporate the star-…
JWST Detects Neon Line Variability in a Protoplanetary Disk
C. C. Espaillat, T. Thanathibodee, C. V. Pittman +6
We report the first detection of variability in the mid-infrared neon line emission of a protoplanetary disk by comparing a JWST MIRI MRS spectrum of SZ Cha taken in 2023 with a Sp…
