Systematic Variations of CO Gas Abundance with Radius in Gas-rich Protoplanetary Disks
Ke Zhang, Edwin A. Bergin, Kamber R. Schwarz +2
CO is the most widely used gas tracer of protoplanetary disks. Its abundance is usually assumed to be an interstellar ratio throughout the warm molecular layer of the disk. But rec…
Unlocking CO Depletion in Protoplanetary Disks II. Primordial C/H Predictions Inside the CO Snowline
Kamber R. Schwarz, Edwin A. Bergin, L. Ilsedore Cleeves +4
CO is thought to be the main reservoir of volatile carbon in protoplanetary disks, and thus the primary initial source of carbon in the atmospheres of forming giant planets. Howeve…
Realizing the Unique Potential of ALMA to Probe the Gas Reservoir of Planet Formation
L. Ilsedore Cleeves, Ryan Loomis, Richard Teague +21
Understanding the origin of the astonishing diversity of exoplanets is a key question for the coming decades. ALMA has revolutionized our view of the dust emission from protoplanet…
The Disk Gas Mass and the Far-IR Revolution
Edwin A. Bergin, Klaus M. Pontoppidan, Charles M. Bradford +13
The gaseous mass of protoplanetary disks is a fundamental quantity in planet formation. The presence of gas is necessary to assemble planetesimals, it determines timescales of gian…
The trail of water and the delivery of volatiles to habitable planets
Klaus M. Pontoppidan, Andrea Banzatti, Edwin Bergin +16
Water is fundamental to our understanding of the evolution of planetary systems and the delivery of volatiles to the surfaces of potentially habitable planets. Yet, we currently ha…
A high resolution mid-infrared survey of water emission from protoplanetary disks
Colette Salyk, John Lacy, Matt Richter +5
We present the largest survey of spectrally resolved mid-infrared water emission to date, with spectra for 11 disks obtained with the Michelle and TEXES spectrographs on Gemini Nor…
