AB Aur, a Rosetta stone for studies of planet formation (IV): C/O estimates from CS and SO interferometric observations
Pablo Rivière-Marichalar, Asunción Fuente, Romane le Gal +5
Context. Protoplanetary disks are the birthplace of planets. As such, they set the initial chemical abundances available for planetary atmosphere formation. Thus, studying elementa…

MINDS: Detection of an inner gas disk caused by evaporating bodies around HD 172555
M. Samland, T. Henning, A. Caratti o Garatti +23
Mechanisms such as collisions of rocky bodies or cometary activity give rise to dusty debris disks. Debris disks trace the leftover building blocks of planets, and thus also planet…

On Linking Planet Formation Models, Protoplanetary Disk Properties, and Mature Gas Giant Exoplanet Atmospheres
Adina D. Feinstein, Richard A. Booth, Jennifer B. Bergner +34
Measuring a single elemental ratio (e.g., carbon-to-oxygen) provides insufficient information for understanding the formation mechanisms and evolution that affect our observations…
