Protoplanetary disk masses in NGC 2024: Evidence for two populations

Sierk E. van Terwisga, Ewine F. van Dishoeck, Rita K. Mann +8

Protoplanetary disks in dense, massive star-forming regions are strongly affected by their environment. How this environmental impact changes over time is an important constraint o…

Disk Masses for Embedded Class I Protostars in the Taurus Molecular Cloud

Patrick D. Sheehan, Josh A. Eisner

Class I protostars are thought to represent an early stage in the lifetime of protoplanetary disks, when they are still embedded in their natal envelope. Here we measure the disk m…
