The inner environment of protoplanetary disks with near infrared spectro-interferometry
Eric Tatulli
In this paper, I review how optical spectro-interferometry has become a particularly well suited technique to study the close environment of young stars, by spatially resolving bot…
Collisional Grooming of Debris Disks
Marc J. Kuchner, Christopher C. Stark
Debris disk images show clumps, rings, warps, and other structures, many of which have been interpreted as perturbations from hidden planets. But so far, no models of these structu…
Initial Conditions of Planet Formation: Lifetimes of Primordial Disks
Eric E. Mamajek
The statistical properties of circumstellar disks around young stars are important for constraining theoretical models for the formation and early evolution of planetary systems. I…
Search for Life on Exoplanets: Toward an International Institutional Coordination
Jean Schneider, Vincent Coude du Foresto, Marc Ollivier
Searching for life in the universe will make use of several large space missions in the visible and thermal infrared, each with increasing spectral and angular resolution. They wil…
Gifts from Exoplanetary Transits
Norio Narita
The discovery of transiting extrasolar planets has enabled us a number of interesting stduies. Transit photometry reveals the radius and the orbital inclination of transiting plane…
Gas accretion by planetary cores
Ben A. Ayliffe, Matthew R. Bate
We present accretion rates obtained from three-dimensional self-gravitating radiation hydrodynamical models of giant planet growth. We investigate the dependence of accretion rates…
