Clarifying the Status of HD 100546 as Observed by the Gemini Planet Imager

Thayne Currie, Sean Brittain, Carol Grady +2

HD 100546 is a young, early-type star and key laboratory for studying gas giant planet formation. GPI data taken in 2015 and reported by Currie et al. (2015) recover the previously…

Dust-trapping vortices and a potentially planet-triggered spiral wake in the pre-transitional disk of V1247 Orionis

Stefan Kraus, Alexander Kreplin, Misato Fukagawa +8

The radial drift problem constitutes one of the most fundamental problems in planet formation theory, as it predicts particles to drift into the star before they are able to grow t…

1000 AU Exterior Arcs Connected to the Protoplanetary Disk around HL Tau

Hsi-Wei Yen, Shigehisa Takakuwa, You-Hua Chu +13

The protoplanetary disk around HL Tau is so far the youngest candidate of planet formation, and it is still embedded in a protostellar envelope with a size of thousands of au. In t…

The evidence of radio polarization induced by the radiative grain alignment and self-scattering of dust grains in a protoplanetary disk

Akimasa Kataoka, Takashi Tsukagoshi, Adriana Pohl +5

The mechanisms causing millimeter-wave polarization in protoplanetary disks are under debate. To disentangle the polarization mechanisms, we observe the protoplanetary disk around…

Effect of dust radial drift on viscous evolution of gaseous disk

Kazuhiro D. Kanagawa, Takahiro Ueda, Takayuki Muto +1

The total amount of dust (or "metallicity") and the dust distribution in protoplanetary disks are crucial for planet formation. Dust grains radially drift due to gas--dust friction…

Planet Formation in AB Aurigae: Imaging of the inner gaseous Spirals observed inside the Dust Cavity

Ya-Wen Tang, Stephane Guilloteau, Anne Dutrey +13

We report the results of ALMA observations of a protoplanetary disk surrounding the Herbig Ae star AB Aurigae. We obtained high-resolution (0.1"; 14 au) images in CO (J=2-1)…
