Observing transiting planets with JWST -- Prime targets and their synthetic spectral observations
Paul Mollière, Roy van Boekel, Jeroen Bouwman +3
The James Webb Space Telescope will enable astronomers to obtain exoplanet spectra of unprecedented precision. Especially the MIRI instrument may shed light on the nature of the cl…
A mid-IR interferometric survey with MIDI/VLTI: resolving the second-generation protoplanetary disks around post-AGB binaries
M. Hillen, H. Van Winckel, J. Menu +7
We present a mid-IR interferometric survey of the circumstellar environment of a specific class of post-Asymptotic Giant Branch (post-AGB) binaries. For this class the presence of…
Three radial gaps in the disk of TW Hydrae imaged with SPHERE
Roy van Boekel, Thomas Henning, Jonathan Menu +24
We present scattered light images of the TW Hya disk performed with SPHERE in PDI mode at 0.63, 0.79, 1.24 and 1.62 micron. We also present H2/H3-band ADI observations. Three disti…
BP Piscium: its flaring disk imaged with SPHERE/ZIMPOL
J. de Boer, J. H. Girard, H. Canovas +9
Whether BP Piscium (BP Psc) is either a pre-main sequence T Tauri star at d ~ 80 pc, or a post-main sequence G giant at d ~ 300 pc is still not clear. As a first-ascent giant, it i…
The abundance and thermal history of water ice in the disk surrounding HD142527 from the DIGIT Herschel Key Program
M. Min, J. Bouwman, C. Dominik +9
The presence or absence of ice in protoplanetary disks is of great importance for the formation of planets. By enhancing the solid surface density and increasing the sticking effic…
Determining the mid-plane conditions of circumstellar discs using gas and dust modelling: a study of HD 163296
Dominika M. Boneberg, Olja Panić, Thomas J. Haworth +2
The mass of gas in protoplanetary discs is a quantity of great interest for assessing their planet formation potential. Disc gas masses are, however, traditionally inferred from me…
Constraining turbulence mixing strength in transitional discs with planets using SPHERE and ALMA
M. de Juan Ovelar, P. Pinilla, M. Min +2
We investigate the effect that the turbulent mixing strength parameter plays on near-infrared polarimetric and sub-millimetre interferometric imaging observations o…
Shadows cast on the transition disk of HD 135344B. Multiwavelength VLT/SPHERE polarimetric differential imaging
T. Stolker, C. Dominik, H. Avenhaus +35
The protoplanetary disk around the F-type star HD 135344B (SAO 206462) is in a transition stage and shows many intriguing structures both in scattered light and thermal (sub-)milli…
