The widest H survey of accreting protoplanets around nearby transition disks
A. Zurlo, G. Cugno, M. Montesinos +6
The mechanisms of planet formation are still under debate. We know little about how planets form, even if more than 4000 exoplanets have been detected to date. Recent investigation…
NaCo polarimetric observations of Sz 91 transitional disk: a remarkable case of dust filtering
Karina Maucó, Johan Olofsson, Hector Canovas +10
We present polarized light observations of the transitional disk around Sz 91 acquired with VLT/NaCo at (1.7m) and (2.2m) bands. We resolve the disk and detect pola…
Flybys in protoplanetary discs: II. Observational signatures
Nicolás Cuello, Fabien Louvet, Daniel Mentiplay +14
Tidal encounters in star clusters perturb discs around young protostars. In Cuello et al. (2019a, Paper I) we detailed the dynamical signatures of a stellar flyby in both gas and d…
Signatures of an eccentric disc cavity: Dust and gas in IRS 48
Josh Calcino, Daniel J. Price, Christophe Pinte +5
We test the hypothesis that the disc cavity in the `transition disc' Oph IRS 48 is carved by an unseen binary companion. We use 3D dust-gas smoothed-particle hydrodynamics simulati…
Kinematic detection of a planet carving a gap in a protoplanetary disc
C. Pinte, G. van der Plas, F. Menard +10
We still do not understand how planets form, or why extra-solar planetary systems are so different from our own solar system. But the last few years have dramatically changed our v…
