Badminton Birdie-Like Aerodynamic Alignment of Drifting Dust Grains by Subsonic Gaseous Flows in Protoplanetary Disks
Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Zhi-Yun Li, Haifeng Yang +4
Recent (sub)millimeter polarization observations of protoplanetary disks reveal toroidally aligned, effectively prolate dust grains large enough (at least ~100 m) to efficiently…
Turbulent vortex with moderate dust settling probed by scattering-induced polarization in the IRS 48 system
Haifeng Yang, Manuel Fernández-López, Zhi-Yun Li +4
We investigate the crescent-shaped dust trap in the transition disk, Oph IRS 48, using well-resolved (sub)millimeter polarimetric observations at ALMA Band 7 (870 m). The dust p…
Panchromatic (Sub)millimeter Polarization Observations of HL Tau Unveil Aligned Scattering Grains
Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Zhi-Yun Li, Ian W. Stephens +14
Polarization is a unique tool to study the properties of dust grains of protoplanetary disks and detail the initial conditions of planet formation. Polarization around HL Tau was p…
UV-Optical Emission of AB Aur b is Consistent with Scattered Stellar Light
Yifan Zhou, Brendan P. Bowler, Haifeng Yang +12
The proposed protoplanet AB Aur b is a spatially concentrated emission source imaged in the mm-wavelength disk gap of the Herbig Ae/Be star AB Aur. Its near-infrared spectrum and a…
(Sub)millimeter Dust Polarization of Protoplanetary Disks from Scattering by Large Millimeter-Sized Irregular Grains
Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Zhi-Yun Li, Haifeng Yang +6
The size of dust grains, , is key to the physical and chemical processes in circumstellar disks, but observational constraints of grain size remain challenging. (Sub)millimeter…
Probing Magnetic Fields in Protoplanetary Disk Atmospheres through Polarized Optical/IR Light Scattered by Aligned Grains
Haifeng Yang, Zhi-Yun Li
Magnetic fields play essential roles in protoplanetary disks. Magnetic fields in the disk atmosphere are of particular interest, as they are connected to the wind-launching mechani…
