Chemistry on solar system scales
Catherine Walsh, Maria Drozdovskaya, Dmitry Semenov +33
The initial chemical composition of planets, primitive bodies in our solar system, and exoplanets is ultimately set by their nascent protoplanetary disks. Yet observing key carbon-…
A Critical Review of Grid Integration Challenges and Flexibility Opportunities for Large-Scale Data Centers
Bibek Dhakal, Manohar Chamana, Biswambhar Gayen +8
The rapid proliferation of cloud computing and artificial intelligence workloads is fundamentally reshaping the magnitude, spatial concentration, and electrical characteristics of…
GREX-PLUS Science Book v2
PLUS Science Team, Shunsuke Baba, Sirio Belli +52
GREX-PLUS (Galaxy Reionization EXplorer and PLanetary Universe Spectrometer) is a mission candidate for a JAXA strategic L-class mission to be launched in the 2030s. Its primary sc…
Gender equality activities in Astronomical Society of Japan
Aya Bamba, Ayumi Asai, Ryohko Ishikawa +6
The female ratio in science field, including astronomy, is still quite low in Japan. We, the Astronomical Society of Japan, are making efforts to equalise the gender balance. In th…
A Protoplanet Candidate in the PDS 66 Disk Indicated by Silicon Sulfide Isotopologues
Tomohiro C. Yoshida, Felipe Alarcón, Jaehan Bae +11
Despite observational progress in planet formation, the stage in which planetesimals grow into planets remains poorly understood. During this phase, protoplanets may develop gaseou…
ALMA Band 7 Observations of Water Lines in the Protoplanetary Disk of V883 Ori
Hiroto Nakasone, Shota Notsu, Tomohiro C. Yoshida +8
The FU Orionis star V883 Ori provides a unique opportunity to probe the water snowline in a protoplanetary disk. During an accretion burst, the enhanced stellar luminosity heats th…
The Origins & Reservoirs of Exocomets
Michele Bannister, Susanne Pfalzner, Tim Pearce +11
Small bodies exist in distinct populations within their planetary systems. These reservoir populations hold a range of compositions, which to first order are dependent on formation…
Measuring the and isotopic ratios of volatile sulfur during planet formation
Alice S. Booth, Maria N. Drozdovskaya, Milou Temmink +9
Stable isotopic ratios constitute powerful tools for unraveling the thermal and irradiation history of volatiles. In particular, we can use our knowledge of the isotopic fractionat…
