Planet Gap-opening Feedback on Disk Thermal Structure and Composition
Kan Chen, Mihkel Kama, Paola Pinilla +1
(Exo-)planets inherit their budget of chemical elements from a protoplanetary disk. The disk temperature determines the phase of each chemical species, which sets the composition o…
Azimuthal C/O Variations in a Planet-Forming Disk
Luke Keyte, Mihkel Kama, Alice S. Booth +8
The elemental carbon-to-oxygen ratio (C/O) in the atmosphere of a giant planet is a promising diagnostic of that planet's formation history in a protoplanetary disk. Alongside effo…
Inferring the Gas-to-Dust Ratio in the Main Planet-Forming Region of Disks
Adam S. Jermyn, Mihkel Kama
Measuring the amount of gas and dust in protoplanetary disks is a key challenge in planet formation studies. Here we provide a new set of dust depletion factors and relative mass s…
A rare phosphorus-rich star in an eclipsing binary from TESS
Colin P. Folsom, Mihkel Kama, Tõnis Eenmäe +6
Context: Few exoplanets around hot stars with radiative envelopes have been discovered, although new observations from the TESS mission are improving this. Stars with radiative env…
Robustness of N2H+ as tracer of the CO snowline
Merel L. R. van 't Hoff, Catherine Walsh, Mihkel Kama +2
[Abridged] Snowlines in protoplanetary disks play an important role in planet formation and composition. Since the CO snowline is difficult to observe directly with CO emission, it…
Dusty tails of evaporating exoplanets. II. Physical modelling of the KIC 12557548b light curve
R. van Lieshout, M. Min, C. Dominik +7
Evaporating rocky exoplanets, such as KIC 12557548b, eject large amounts of dust grains, which can trail the planet in a comet-like tail. When such objects occult their host star,…
