Violent environment of the inner disk of RW Aur A probed by the 2010 and 2015 dimming events
S. Facchini, C. F. Manara, P. C. Schneider +5
RW Aur is a young binary system showing strong signatures of a recent tidal encounter between the circumprimary disk and the secondary star. The primary star has recently undergone…
A photo-evaporative gap in the closest planet forming disc
Barbara Ercolano, Giovanni P. Rosotti, Giovanni Picogna +1
The dispersal of the circumstellar discs of dust and gas surrounding young low- mass stars has important implications for the formation of planetary systems. Photo- evaporation fro…
The origin of the eccentricity of the hot Jupiter in CI Tau
Giovanni P. Rosotti, Richard A. Booth, Cathie J. Clarke +3
Following the recent discovery of the first radial velocity planet in a star still possessing a protoplanetary disc (CI Tau), we examine the origin of the planet's eccentricity (e…
Planet Formation Imager (PFI): science vision and key requirements
Stefan Kraus, John D. Monnier, Michael J. Ireland +75
The Planet Formation Imager (PFI) project aims to provide a strong scientific vision for ground-based optical astronomy beyond the upcoming generation of Extremely Large Telescopes…
Evidence for a correlation between mass accretion rates onto young stars and the mass of their protoplanetary disks
C. F. Manara, G. Rosotti, L. Testi +13
A relation between the mass accretion rate onto the central young star and the mass of the surrounding protoplanetary disk has long been theoretically predicted and observationally…
The minimum mass of detectable planets in protoplanetary discs and the derivation of planetary masses from high resolution observations
Giovanni P. Rosotti, Attila Juhasz, Richard A. Booth +1
We investigate the minimum planet mass that produces observable signatures in infrared scattered light and submm continuum images and demonstrate how these images can be used to me…
