Recovering the structure of debris disks non-parametrically from images

Yinuo Han, Mark C. Wyatt, Sebastian Marino

Debris disks common around Sun-like stars carry dynamical imprints in their structure that are key to understanding the formation and evolution history of planetary systems. In thi…

Low CI/CO Abundance Ratio Revealed by HST UV Spectroscopy of CO-rich Debris Disks

Aoife Brennan, Luca Matrà, Sebastián Marino +6

The origin and evolution of CO gas in debris disks has been debated since its initial detection. The gas could have a primordial origin, as a remnant of the protoplanetary disk or…

Atacama Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (AtLAST) Science: Our Galaxy

Pamela Klaassen, Alessio Traficante, Maria T. Beltrán +38

As we learn more about the multi-scale interstellar medium (ISM) of our Galaxy, we develop a greater understanding for the complex relationships between the large-scale diffuse gas…

The effect of sculpting planets on the steepness of debris-disc inner edges

Tim D. Pearce, Alexander V. Krivov, Antranik A. Sefilian +6

Debris discs are our best means to probe the outer regions of planetary systems. Many studies assume that planets lie at the inner edges of debris discs, akin to Neptune and the Ku…

A Primordial Origin for the Gas-Rich Debris Disks Around Intermediate-Mass Stars

Riouhei Nakatani, Neal J. Turner, Yasuhiro Hasegawa +4

While most debris disks consist of dust with little or no gas, a fraction has significant amounts of gas detected via emission lines of CO, ionized carbon, and/or atomic oxygen. Al…

An ALMA Survey of M-dwarfs in the Beta Pictoris Moving Group with Two New Debris Disc Detections

Patrick F. Cronin-Coltsmann, Grant M. Kennedy, Quentin Kral +4

Previous surveys in the far-infrared have found very few, if any, M-dwarf debris discs among their samples. It has been questioned whether M-dwarf discs are simply less common than…

Radio-continuum decrements associated to shadowing from the central warp in transition disc DoAr44

Carla Arce-Tord, Simon Casassus, William R. F. Dent +8

Warps have often been used to explain disc properties, but well characterised examples are important due to their role in disc evolution. Scattered light images of discs with centr…
