Small vs large dust grains in transitional disks: do different cavity sizes indicate a planet?

Antonio Garufi, Sascha P Quanz, Henning Avenhaus +7

Transitional disks represent a short stage of the evolution of circumstellar material. Studies of dust grains in these objects can provide pivotal information on the mechanisms of…

Imaging diagnostics for transitional discs

M. de Juan Ovelar, M. Min, C. Dominik +4

Transitional discs are a special type of protoplanetary discs where planet formation is thought to be taking place. These objects feature characteristic inner cavities and/or gaps…

A Major Asymmetric Dust Trap in a Transition Disk

Nienke van der Marel, Ewine F. van Dishoeck, Simon Bruderer +9

The statistics of discovered exoplanets suggest that planets form efficiently. However, there are fundamental unsolved problems, such as excessive inward drift of particles in prot…

Explaining millimeter-sized particles in brown dwarf disks

P. Pinilla, T. Birnstiel, M. Benisty +5

Planets have been detected around a variety of stars, including low-mass objects, such as brown dwarfs. However, such extreme cases are challenging for planet formation models. Rec…

Lopsided dust rings in transition disks

T. Birnstiel, C. P. Dullemond, P. Pinilla

Context. Particle trapping in local or global pressure maxima in protoplanetary disks is one of the new paradigms in the theory of the first stages of planet formation. However, fi…
