CO Ro-vibrational Spectroscopy of AB Aurigae -- A Potential Point Source is Present
Janus Kozdon, Jeffrey Fung, Sean D. Brittain +4
The Herbig Ae star AB Aurigae hosts a vast, low-inclination protoplanetary disk that exhibits a plethora of substructures, including the protoplanet candidate AB Aur b. We present…
On Eccentric Protoplanetary Disks I -- How Eccentric are Planet-Perturbed Disks?
Cory Padgett, Jeffrey Fung
Protoplanetary disks can become eccentric when planets open deep gaps within, but how eccentric are they? We answer this question by analyzing two-dimensional hydrodynamical simula…
Spectroastrometric Survey of Protoplanetary Disks with Inner Dust Cavities
Stanley K. Jensen, Sean D. Brittain, Andrea Banzatti +6
We present high-resolution spectra and spectroastrometric (SA) measurements of fundamental rovibrational CO emission from nine nearby (300 pc) protoplanetary disks where…
A Systematic Study of Planetary Envelope Growth with 3D Radiation-Hydrodynamics Simulations
Avery Bailey, Jim Stone, Jeffrey Fung
In the core accretion model of planet formation, envelope cooling regulates the accretion of material and ultimately sets the timescale to form a giant planet. Given the diversity…
