A Spatially Resolved AU-scale Inner Disk around DM Tau
Tomoyuki Kudo, Jun Hashimoto, Takayuki Muto +5
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of the dust continuum emission at 1.3 mm and 12CO J=2-1 line emission of the transitional disk around DM…
Dust Growth and Dynamics in Protoplanetary Nebulae: Implications for Opacity, Thermal Profile and Gravitational Instability
Debanjan Sengupta, Sarah E. Dodson-Robinson, Yasuhiro Hasegawa +1
In spite of making a small contribution to total protoplanetary disk mass, dust affects the disk temperature by controlling absorption of starlight. As grains grow from their initi…
The Origin of Heavy Element Content Trend in Giant Planets via Core Accretion
Yasuhiro Hasegawa, Geoffrey Bryden, Masahiro Ikoma +2
We explore the origin of the trend of heavy elements in observed massive exoplanets. Coupling of better measurements of mass () and radius of exoplanets with planet structure…
Abundances of ordinary chondrites in thermally evolving planetesimals
S. Wakita, Y. Hasegawa, T. Nozawa
Chondrites are one of the most primitive objects in the solar system, and keep the record of the degree of thermal metamorphism experienced in their parent bodies. This thermal his…
The Eccentric Cavity, Triple Rings, Two-Armed Spirals, and Double Clumps of the MWC 758 Disk
Ruobing Dong, Sheng-yuan Liu, Josh Eisner +15
Spatially resolved structures in protoplanetary disks hint at unseen planets. Previous imaging observations of the transitional disk around MWC 758 revealed an inner cavity, a ring…
Detection of 40-48 GHz dust continuum linear polarization towards the Class 0 young stellar object IRAS 16293-2422
Hauyu Baobab Liu, Yasuhiro Hasegawa, Tao-Chung Ching +3
We performed the new JVLA full polarization observations at 40-48 GHz (6.3-7.5 mm) towards the nearby ( 1473.4 pc) Class 0 YSO IRAS 16293-2422, and compare with the prev…
Finding and Characterizing Other Worlds: the Thermal-IR ELT Opportunity
Michael R. Meyer, Thayne Currie, Olivier Guyon +7
The next generation ground-based extremely large telescopes (ELTs) present incredible opportunities to discover and characterize diverse planetary systems, even potentially habitab…
Differences in the gas and dust distribution in the transitional disk of a sun-like young star, PDS 70
Zachary C. Long, Eiji Akiyama, Michael Sitko +22
We present ALMA 0.87 mm continuum, HCO+ J=4--3 emission line, and CO J=3--2 emission line data of the disk of material around the young, Sun-like star PDS 70. These data reveal the…
A comprehensive understanding of planet formation is required for assessing planetary habitability and for the search for life
Dániel Apai, Fred Ciesla, Gijs D. Mulders +14
Dozens of habitable zone, approximately earth-sized exoplanets are known today. An emerging frontier of exoplanet studies is identifying which of these habitable zone, small planet…
Exoplanet Diversity in the Era of Space-based Direct Imaging Missions
Ravi Kopparapu, Eric Hebrard, Rus Belikov +55
This whitepaper discusses the diversity of exoplanets that could be detected by future observations, so that comparative exoplanetology can be performed in the upcoming era of larg…
