A survey of C2H, HCN, and C18O in protoplanetary disks

Jennifer B. Bergner, Karin I. Oberg, Edwin A. Bergin +3

Molecular lines observed towards protoplanetary disks carry information about physical and chemical processes associated with planet formation. We present ALMA Band 6 observations…

Increased HCO production in the outer disk around HD 163296

M. T. Carney, M. R. Hogerheijde, R. A. Loomis +4

Three formaldehyde lines were observed (HCO 3--2, HCO 3--2, and HCO 3--2) in the protoplanetary disk around the Herbig Ae star…

An ALMA survey of DCN/HCN and DCO/HCO in protoplanetary disks

Jane Huang, Karin I. Oberg, Chunhua Qi +7

The deuterium enrichment of molecules is sensitive to their formation environment. Constraining patterns of deuterium chemistry in protoplanetary disks is therefore useful for prob…

Nitrogen Fractionation in Protoplanetary Disks from the H13CN/HC15N Ratio

V. V. Guzmán, K. I. Öberg, J. Huang +2

Nitrogen fractionation is commonly used to assess the thermal history of Solar System volatiles. With ALMA it is for the first time possible to directly measure 14N/15N ratios in c…

First detection of gas-phase methanol in a protoplanetary disk

Catherine Walsh, Ryan A. Loomis, Karin I. Oberg +7

The first detection of gas-phase methanol in a protoplanetary disk (TW Hya) is presented. In addition to being one of the largest molecules detected in disks to date, methanol is a…

SET-E: The Search for Extraterrestrial Environmentalism

Benjamin Montet, Ryan Loomis

There is currently no evidence for life on any known exoplanet. Here, we propose a form of "galactic anthropology" to detect not only the existence of life on transiting exoplanets…
