Water-Rich Disks around Late M-stars Unveiled: Exploring the Remarkable Case of Sz114

Chengyan Xie, Ilaria Pascucci, Feng Long +18

We present an analysis of the JDISC JWST/MIRI-MRS spectrum of Sz~114, an accreting M5 star surrounded by a large dust disk with a shallow gap at au. The spectrum is molec…

How large is a disk -- what do protoplanetary disk gas sizes really mean?

Leon Trapman, Giovanni Rosotti, Ke Zhang +1

It remains unclear what mechanism is driving the evolution of protoplanetary disks. Direct detection of the main candidates, either turbulence driven by magnetorotational instabili…

A gap-sharing planet pair shaping the crescent in HD 163296: a disk sculpted by a resonant chain

Juan Garrido-Deutelmoser, Cristobal Petrovich, Carolina Charalambous +2

ALMA observations of the disk around HD 163296 have resolved a crescent-shape substructure at around 55 au, inside and off-center from a gap in the dust that extends from 38 au to…

New Constraints on Protoplanetary Disk Gas Masses in Lupus

Dana E. Anderson, L. Ilsedore Cleeves, Geoffrey A. Blake +4

Gas mass is a fundamental quantity of protoplanetary disks that directly relates to their ability to form planets. Because we are unable to observe the bulk H content of disks…

A novel way of measuring the gas disk mass of protoplanetary disks using N2H+ and C18O

L. Trapman, K. Zhang, M. R. L. van 't Hoff +2

Measuring the gas mass of protoplanetary disks, the reservoir available for giant planet formation, has proven to be difficult. We currently lack a far-infrared observatory capable…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) V: CO gas distributions

Ke Zhang, Alice S. Booth, Charles J. Law +32

Here we present high resolution (15-24 au) observations of CO isotopologue lines from the Molecules with ALMA on Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) ALMA Large Program. Our analysis emplo…
