Disk Evolution Study Through Imaging of Nearby Young Stars (DESTINYS): Dynamical Evidence of a Spiral-Arm-Driving and Gap-Opening Protoplanet from SAO 206462 Spiral Motion
Chen Xie, Chengyan Xie, Bin B. Ren +8
In the early stages of planetary system formation, young exoplanets gravitationally interact with their surrounding environments and leave observable signatures on protoplanetary d…
A New Look at Disk Winds and External Photoevaporation in the -Orionis Cluster
K. Maucó, C. F. Manara, A. Bayo +12
Disk winds play a crucial role in the evolution of protoplanetary disks. Typical conditions for star and planet formation are in regions with intermediate or strong UV radiation fi…
A tell-tale tracer for externally irradiated protoplanetary disks: comparing the [CI] 8727 A line and ALMA observations in proplyds
Mari-Liis Aru, Karina Mauco, Carlo F. Manara +15
The evolution of protoplanetary disks in regions with massive OB stars is influenced by externally driven winds that deplete the outer parts of disks. These winds have previously b…
Resolved ALMA observations of water in the inner astronomical units of the HL Tau disk
Stefano Facchini, Leonardo Testi, Elizabeth Humphreys +7
The water molecule is a key ingredient in the formation of planetary systems, with the water snowline being a favourable location for the growth of massive planetary cores. Here we…
Binary orbit and disks properties of the RW Aur system using ALMA observations
N. T. Kurtovic, S. Facchini, M. Benisty +8
The dynamical interactions between young binaries can perturb the material distribution of their circumstellar disks, and modify the planet formation process. In order to constrain…
ALMA high-resolution observations unveil planet formation shaping molecular emission in the PDS 70 disk
L. Rampinelli, S. Facchini, M. Leemker +7
With two directly detected protoplanets, the PDS 70 system is a unique source in which to study the complex interplay between forming planets and their natal environment. The large…
