The TW Hya Rosetta Stone Project III: Resolving the Gaseous Thermal Profile of the Disk

Jenny Calahan, Edwin Bergin, Ke Zhang +16

The thermal structure of protoplanetary disks is a fundamental characteristic of the system that has wide reaching effects on disk evolution and planet formation. In this study, we…

The TW Hya Rosetta Stone Project II: Spatially resolved emission of formaldehyde hints at low-temperature gas-phase formation

Jeroen Terwisscha van Scheltinga, Michiel R. Hogerheijde, L. Ilsedore Cleeves +15

Formaldehyde (HCO) is an important precursor to organics like methanol (CHOH). It is important to understand the conditions that produce HCO and prebiotic molecules dur…

The TW Hya Rosetta Stone Project I: Radial and vertical distributions of DCN and DCO+

Karin I. Oberg, L. Ilsedore Cleeves, Jennifer B. Bergner +16

Molecular D/H ratios are frequently used to probe the chemical past of Solar System volatiles. Yet it is unclear which parts of the Solar Nebula hosted an active deuterium fraction…

An unbiased ALMA spectral survey of the LkCa 15 and MWC 480 protoplanetary disks

Ryan A. Loomis, Karin I. Öberg, Sean M. Andrews +13

The volatile contents of protoplanetary disks both set the potential for planetary chemistry and provide valuable probes of defining disk system characteristics such as stellar mas…

An evolutionary study of volatile chemistry in protoplanetary disks

Jennifer B. Bergner, Karin I. Oberg, Edwin A. Bergin +11

The volatile composition of a planet is determined by the inventory of gas and ice in the parent disk. The volatile chemistry in the disk is expected to evolve over time, though th…

An ALMA Survey of HCO in Protoplanetary Disks

Jamila Pegues, Karin I. Öberg, Jennifer B. Bergner +13

HCO is one of the most abundant organic molecules in protoplanetary disks and can serve as a precursor to more complex organic chemistry. We present an ALMA survey of HCO t…
