Outward Motion of Porous Dust Aggregates by Stellar Radiation Pressure in Protoplanetary Disks

Ryo Tazaki, Hideko Nomura

We study the dust motion at the surface layer of protoplanetary disks. Dust grains in surface layer migrate outward due to angular momentum transport via gas-drag force induced by…

Complex organic molecules along the accretion flow in isolated and externally irradiated protoplanetary disks

Catherine Walsh, Eric Herbst, Hideko Nomura +2

(Abridged) The birth environment of the Sun will have influenced the conditions in the pre-solar nebula, including the attainable chemical complexity, important for prebiotic chemi…

ALMA hints at the presence of two companions in the disk around HD 100546

Catherine Walsh, Attila Juhasz, Paola Pinilla +10

HD 100546 is a well-studied Herbig Be star-disk system that likely hosts a close-in companion with compelling observational evidence for an embedded protoplanet at 68 AU. We presen…

Complex organic molecules in protoplanetary disks

Catherine Walsh, T. J. Millar, Hideko Nomura +5

(Abridged) Protoplanetary disks are vital objects in star and planet formation, possessing all the material which may form a planetary system orbiting the new star. We investigate…

Rotational Instability in the Outer Region of Protoplanetary Disks

Tomohiro Ono, Hideko Nomura, Taku Takeuchi

We analytically calculate the marginally stable surface density profile for rotational instability of protoplanetary disks. The derived profile can be utilized for considering the…

Physical and chemical structure of planet-forming disks probed by millimeter observations and modeling

Anne Dutrey, Dmitry Semenov, Edwige Chapillon +10

Protoplanetary disks composed of dust and gas are ubiquitous around young stars and are commonly recognized as nurseries of planetary systems. Their lifetime, appearance, and struc…
