FAUST XXXII. Chemically layered structures and ionisation in the disk and envelope of NGC 1333 IRAS 4C

Shota Notsu, Nami Sakai, Yichen Zhang +71

Recent molecular line observations with high spatial resolutions have revealed vertical chemical stratification in Class I/II disks (i.e. chemical composition changing with height…

The ALMA View of the Edge-on Gomez's Hamburger System: A Highly-Dynamic, Asymmetric Protoplanetary Disk Reveals the Earliest Phases of Giant Planet Formation

Charles J. Law, Jensen Lawrence, Richard Teague +18

Chemical tracers provide some of the strongest observational signatures of ongoing planet formation and localized dynamical perturbations in protoplanetary disks. In particular, su…

SMA Observations Reveal Abundant HNC Chemistry in Transition Disks

Kyle Gresko, Charles J. Law, Deryl E. Long +8

The physical and chemical conditions of protoplanetary disks shape the properties of nascent planetary systems. The line ratios and relative abundances of the HCN-HNC isomer pair a…

First Detection of HC5N in a Class II Disk around TW Hya

Steven C. Wampler, Ryan A. Loomis, Amina Diop +9

Over the last decade of ALMA's operation the molecular inventory of protoplanetary disks has expanded rapidly, revealing a diverse set of nitrogen-bearing organics and carbon-chain…

An SMA Molecular Inventory of the Edge-on Protoplanetary Disk Gomez's Hamburger

Erin M. Cusson, Lisa Wölfer, Richard Teague +10

Gomez's Hamburger (IRAS 18059-3211, GoHam) is a massive, edge-on protoplanetary disk that is potentially gravitationally unstable and hosts an overdensity that may be the site of a…

Compact Hydrogen Sulfide Emission Indicates Sulfur-bearing Ice Sublimation in the Inner Disk of HD 163296

Yoshihide Yamato, Yuri Aikawa, Kenji Furuya +8

The sulfur chemistry in protoplanetary disks directly affects the composition and potential habitability of nascent planets, but its volatile inventory remains highly uncertain. He…

Ortho-Para Chemistry of H2CO in the Protoplanetary Disk TW Hya

M. Gaillard, A. Faure, P. Hily-Blant +4

The spatial distribution of the chemical reservoirs in protoplanetary disks is key to elucidate the composition of planets, especially habitable ones. However, the partitioning of…

Tracing Pebble Drift History in Two Protoplanetary Disks with CO Enhancement

Tayt Armitage, Joe Williams, Ke Zhang +15

Pebble drift is an important mechanism for supplying the materials needed to build planets in the inner region of protoplanetary disks. Thus, constraining pebble drift's timescales…
