Isolating Dust and Free-Free Emission in ONC Proplyds with ALMA Band 3 Observations

Nicholas P. Ballering, L. Ilsedore Cleeves, Thomas J. Haworth +6

The Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) hosts protoplanetary disks experiencing external photoevaporation by the cluster's intense UV field. These ``proplyds" are comprised of a disk surrou…

On the underestimation of dust mass in protoplanetary disks: Effects of disk structure and dust properties

Yao Liu, Hendrik Linz, Min Fang +6

The total amount of dust grains in protoplanetary disks is one of the key properties that characterize the potential for planet formation. With (sub-)millimeter flux measurements,…

Millimeter Gap Contrast as a Probe for Turbulence Level in Protoplanetary Disks

Yao Liu, Gesa H. -M. Bertrang, Mario Flock +7

Turbulent motions are believed to regulate angular momentum transport and influence dust evolution in protoplanetary disks. Measuring the strength of turbulence is challenging thro…

Modeling the arc and ring structures in the HD 143006 disk

Yao Liu, Mario Flock, Min Fang

Rings and asymmetries in protoplanetary disks are considered as signposts of ongoing planet formation. In this work, we conduct three-dimensional radiative transfer simulations to…

Hubble Space Telescope UV and H Measurements of the Accretion Excess Emission from the Young Giant Planet PDS 70 b

Yifan Zhou, Brendan P. Bowler, Kevin R. Wagner +6

Recent discoveries of young exoplanets within their natal disks offer exciting opportunities to study ongoing planet formation. In particular, a planet's mass accretion rate can be…

CKS IX: Revisiting the Minimum-Mass Extrasolar Nebula with Precise Stellar Parameters

Fei Dai, Joshua N. Winn, Kevin Schlaufman +5

We investigate a possible correlation between the solid surface density of the minimum-mass extrasolar nebulae (MMEN) and the host star mass and metallicity [Fe/H]. L…
