The Tartu Observatory Fiber-fed Echelle Spectrograph (TOFES) Data Reduction Pipeline
Sandipan P. D. Borthakur, Tõnis Eenmäe, Nikolai Piskunov +9
We introduce the data reduction pipeline for the Tartu Observatory Fiber-fed Echelle Spectrograph (TOFES). TOFES is installed in the Coudé room and will be connected to the 1.5 m…
Detectability of deuterium in spectra of early-type stars
Veronika Mitrokhina, Colin P. Folsom, Mihkel Kama +1
Context: Deuterium is easily destroyed in stellar interiors through nuclear fusion. It is therefore usually not expected to be present in stellar photospheres. Early-type stars, wi…
sponchpop: Population synthesis to investigate volatile sulfur as a fingerprint of gas giant formation histories
Anna Sommerville-Thomas, Mihkel Kama, Oliver Shottle +1
Planet population synthesis is an integral tool for linking exoplanets to their formation environments. Most planet population synthesis studies have focused on the carbon-to-oxyge…
Planet-induced Gas and Dust Substructure Feedbacks on Disk Thermal Structure
Kan Chen, Paola Pinilla, Mihkel Kama
Protoplanets can interact with their natal disks and generate gas and dust substructures such as gaps and rings. However, how these planet-induced substructures affect the disk tem…
Refractory phosphorus in the HD 100546 protoplanetary disk
Mihkel Kama, Oliver Shorttle, Sandipan P. D. Borthakur +5
The phosphorus budget of planets is intertwined with their formation history and is thought to influence their habitability. The chemical reservoirs and volatile \emph{vs} refracto…
Volatile composition of the HD 169142 disk and its embedded planet
Luke Keyte, Mihkel Kama, Alice S. Booth +2
The composition of a planet's atmosphere is intricately linked to the chemical makeup of the protoplanetary disk in which it formed. Determining the elemental abundances from key v…
