The 1600 Angstrom Emission Bump in Protoplanetary Disks: A Spectral Signature of HO Dissociation

Kevin France, Evelyne Roueff, Herve Abgrall

The FUV continuum spectrum of many accreting pre-main sequence stars, Classical T Tauri Stars (CTTSs), does not continue smoothly from the well-studied Balmer continuum emission in…

High-resolution Ultraviolet Radiation Fields of Classical T Tauri Stars

Kevin France, Rebecca Schindhelm, Edwin Bergin +2

The far-ultraviolet (FUV; 912--1700 Å) radiation field from accreting central stars in Classical T Tauri systems influences the disk chemistry during the period of giant planet for…

Hot Gas Lines in T Tauri Stars

David R. Ardila, Gregory J. Herczeg, Scott G. Gregory +20

For Classical T Tauri Stars (CTTSs), the resonance lines of N V, Si IV, and C IV, as well as the He II 1640 A line, act as diagnostics of the accretion process. Here we assemble a…

A Hubble Space Telescope Survey of H2 Emission in the Circumstellar Environments of Young Stars

Kevin France, Rebecca Schindhelm, Gregory J. Herczeg +8

The formation timescale and final architecture of exoplanetary systems are closely related to the properties of the molecular disks from which they form. Observations of the spatia…

NUV Excess in Slowly Accreting T Tauri Stars: Limits Imposed by Chromospheric Emission

Laura Ingleby, Nuria Calvet, Edwin Bergin +20

Young stars surrounded by disks with very low mass accretion rates are likely in the final stages of inner disk evolution and therefore particularly interesting to study. We presen…

CO and H2 Absorption in the AA Tauri Circumstellar Disk

Kevin France, Eric B. Burgh, Gregory J. Herczeg +7

The direct study of molecular gas in inner protoplanetary disks is complicated by uncertainties in the spatial distribution of the gas, the time-variability of the source, and the…
