Dust Substructures and Line Perturbations driven by a Forming Planet in J16120

Anibal Sierra, Andrés F. Izquierdo, Paola Pinilla +18

Hints of planet formation have been independently reported within the gap of the disc around 2MASS J16120668-301027 from millimetre continuum, infrared, and H-alpha observations. I…

Transformational astrophysics and exoplanet science with Habitable Worlds Observatory's High Resolution Imager

Vincent Van Eylen, Richard Massey, Saeeda Awan +167

Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will be NASA's flagship space telescope of the 2040s, designed to search for life on other planets and to transform broad areas of astrophysics.…

Planet-induced Gas and Dust Substructure Feedbacks on Disk Thermal Structure

Kan Chen, Paola Pinilla, Mihkel Kama

Protoplanets can interact with their natal disks and generate gas and dust substructures such as gaps and rings. However, how these planet-induced substructures affect the disk tem…

Mind the kinematics simulation of planet-disk interactions: time evolution and numerical resolution

Kan Chen, Ruobing Dong

Planet-disk interactions can produce kinematic signatures in protoplanetary disks. While recent observations have detected non-Keplerian gas motions in disks, their origins are sti…

Planet Gap-opening Feedback on Disk Thermal Structure and Composition

Kan Chen, Mihkel Kama, Paola Pinilla +1

(Exo-)planets inherit their budget of chemical elements from a protoplanetary disk. The disk temperature determines the phase of each chemical species, which sets the composition o…
