Photoevaporation of Circumstellar Disks by FUV, EUV and X-ray Radiation from the Central Star

Uma Gorti, David Hollenbach

We calculate the rate of photoevaporation of a circumstellar disk by energetic radiation (FUV, 6eV 13.6eV; EUV, 13.6eV 0.1keV; and Xrays, keV) from its central…

Line Emission from Gas in Optically Thick Dust Disks around Young Stars

Uma Gorti, David Hollenbach

We present self-consistent models of gas in optically-thick dusty disks and calculate its thermal, density and chemical structure. The models focus on an accurate treatment of the…

Detection of [Ne II] Emission from Young Circumstellar Disks

I. Pascucci, D. Hollenbach, J. Najita +9

We report the detection of [Ne II] emission at 12.81 micron in four out of the six optically thick dust disks observed as part of the FEPS Spitzer Legacy program. In addition, we d…

The Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems: Placing Our Solar System in Context with Spitzer

Michael R. Meyer, Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Dana Backman +32

We provide an overview of the Spitzer Legacy Program ``Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems" (FEPS) which was proposed in 2000, begun in 2001, and executed aboard the Spitz…

Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems: Upper Limits to the Gas Mass in Disks Around Sun-like Stars

I. Pascucci, U. Gorti, D. Hollenbach +17

We have carried out a sensitive search for gas emission lines at infrared and millimeter wavelengths for a sample of 15 young sun-like stars selected from our dust disk survey with…

Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems: Upper Limits the Gas Mass in HD105

D. Hollenbach, U. Gorti, M. Meyer +13

We report infrared spectroscopic observations of HD 105, a nearby ( pc) and relatively young ( Myr) G0 star with excess infrared continuum emission, which has bee…
