Azimuthal C/O Variations in a Planet-Forming Disk
Luke Keyte, Mihkel Kama, Alice S. Booth +8
The elemental carbon-to-oxygen ratio (C/O) in the atmosphere of a giant planet is a promising diagnostic of that planet's formation history in a protoplanetary disk. Alongside effo…
Relation between metallicities and spectral energy distributions of Herbig Ae/Be stars. A potential link with planet formation
J. Guzman-Diaz, B. Montesinos, I. Mendigutia +5
(Abridged) The stellar metallicity, [M/H], may have important implications for planet formation. In particular, Kama et al. proposed that the deficit of refractory elements in the…
KELT-9 and its ultra-hot Jupiter: stellar parameters, composition, and planetary pollution
Mihkel Kama, Colin P. Folsom, Adam S. Jermyn +1
KELT-9b is an ultra-hot Jupiter observed to be undergoing extreme mass loss. Its A0-type host star has a radiative envelope, which makes its surface layers prone to retaining recen…
The first interferometric measurements of NHD/NH ratio in hot corinos
Yoshihide Yamato, Kenji Furuya, Yuri Aikawa +4
The nitrogen chemical evolution during star and planet formation is still not fully understood. Ammonia (NH) is a key specie in the understanding of the molecular evolution in…
Sulphur monoxide emission tracing an embedded planet in the HD 100546 protoplanetary disk
Alice S. Booth, John D. Ilee, Catherine Walsh +4
Molecular line observations are powerful tracers of the physical and chemical conditions across the different evolutionary stages of star, disk and planet formation. Using the high…
Inferring the Gas-to-Dust Ratio in the Main Planet-Forming Region of Disks
Adam S. Jermyn, Mihkel Kama
Measuring the amount of gas and dust in protoplanetary disks is a key challenge in planet formation studies. Here we provide a new set of dust depletion factors and relative mass s…
