Multi-band ALMA Polarization Observations of BHB07-11 Reveal Aligned Dust Grains in Complex Spiral Arm Structures

Austen Fourkas, Leslie W. Looney, Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin +8

Polarization-mode observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) are powerful tools for studying the dust grain populations in circumstellar disks. Many…

L1448 IRS3B: Dust Polarization Aligned with Spiral Features, Tracing Gas Flows

Leslie W. Looney, Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Zhi-Yun Li +11

Circumstellar disk dust polarization in the (sub)millimeter is, for the most part, not from dust grain alignment with magnetic fields but rather indicative of a combination of dust…

Protoplanetary Disk Polarization at Multiple Wavelengths: Are Dust Populations Diverse?

Rachel E. Harrison, Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Leslie W. Looney +4

Millimeter and sub-millimeter observations of continuum linear dust polarization provide insight into dust grain growth in protoplanetary disks, which are the progenitors of planet…

Eccentric Dust Ring in the IRS 48 Transition Disk

Haifeng Yang, Manuel Fernandez-Lopez, Zhi-Yun Li +4

Crescent-shaped structures in transition disks hold the key to studying the putative companions to the central stars. The dust dynamics, especially that of different grain sizes, i…

Diagnosing FUor-like Sources: The Parameter Space of Viscously Heated Disks in the Optical and Near-IR

Hanpu Liu, Gregory J. Herczeg, Doug Johnstone +8

FU Ori type objects (FUors) are decades-long outbursts of accretion onto young stars that are strong enough to viscously heat disks so that the disk outshines the central star. We…

Thermal Emission and Scattering by Aligned Grains: Plane-Parallel Model and Application to Multiwavelength Polarization of the HL Tau Disk

Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Zhi-Yun Li, Haifeng Yang +4

Telescopes are now able to resolve dust polarization across circumstellar disks at multiple wavelengths, allowing the study of the polarization spectrum. Most disks show clear evid…
