We present measurements of key protoplanetary disk properties inferred from parametric models of ALMA 12CO spectral line visibilities. We derive gas-disk radii, integrated fluxes,…
Key Physical Parameters Influencing Fragmentation and Multiplicity in Dense Cores of Orion A
Jo-Shui Kao, Hsi-Wei Yen, Shih-Ping Lai
When dense cores in molecular clouds or filamentary structures collapse and form protostars, they may undergo fragmentation and form binary or multiple systems. In this paper, we i…

We present high-resolution (0.05"; 8 au) dust continuum and molecular line observations toward the Class I protostellar system IRAS 04169+2702 in the Taurus B213 region, as p…
ExoALMA XIII. gas masses from N2H+ and C18O: a comparison of protoplanetary gas disk mass measurement techniques
Leon Trapman, Cristiano Longarini, Giovanni P. Rosotti +37
The gas masses of protoplanetary disks are important but elusive quantities. In this work we present new ALMA observations of N2H+ (3-2) for 11 exoALMA disks. N2H+ is a molecule se…
exoALMA. VI. Rotating under Pressure: Rotation curves, azimuthal velocity substructures, and pressure variations
Jochen Stadler, Myriam Benisty, Andrew J. Winter +36
The bulk motion of the gas in protoplanetary disks around newborn stars is nearly Keplerian. By leveraging the high angular and spectral resolution of ALMA, we can detect small-sca…
exoALMA. XVII. Characterizing the Gas Dynamics around Dust Asymmetries
Lisa Wölfer, Marcelo Barraza-Alfaro, Richard Teague +31
The key planet-formation processes in protoplanetary disks remain an active matter of research. One promising mechanism to radially and azimuthally trap millimeter-emitting dust gr…
