Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) V: CO gas distributions

Ke Zhang, Alice S. Booth, Charles J. Law +32

Here we present high resolution (15-24 au) observations of CO isotopologue lines from the Molecules with ALMA on Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) ALMA Large Program. Our analysis emplo…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) XIV: Revealing disk substructures in multi-wavelength continuum emission

Anibal Sierra, Laura M. Pérez, Ke Zhang +25

Constraining dust properties of planet-forming disks via high angular resolution observations is fundamental to understanding how solids are trapped in substructures and how dust g…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS XVIII): Kinematic Substructures in the Disks of HD 163296 and MWC 480

Richard Teague, Jaehan Bae, Yuri Aikawa +24

We explore the dynamical structure of the protoplanetary disks surrounding HD 163296 and MWC 480 as part of the Molecules with ALMA at Planet Forming Scales (MAPS) large program. U…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) I: Program Overview and Highlights

Karin I. Oberg, Viviana V. Guzman, Catherine Walsh +35

Planets form and obtain their compositions in dust and gas-rich disks around young stars, and the outcome of this process is intimately linked to the disk chemical properties. The…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS). XV. Tracing protoplanetary disk structure within 20 au

Arthur D. Bosman, Edwin A. Bergin, Ryan A. Loomis +25

Constraining the distribution of gas and dust in the inner 20 au of protoplanetary disks is difficult. At the same time, this region is thought to be responsible for most planet fo…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) III: Characteristics of Radial Chemical Substructures

Charles J. Law, Ryan A. Loomis, Richard Teague +32

The Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) Large Program provides a detailed, high resolution (10-20 au) view of molecular line emission in five protoplanetary…

Characterization of the dust content in the ring around Sz 91: indications for planetesimal formation?

Karina Maucó, Carlos Carrasco-González, Matthias R. Schreiber +6

One of the most important questions in the field of planet formation is how mm-cm sized dust particles overcome the radial drift and fragmentation barriers to form kilometer-sized…

A Circumplanetary Disk Around PDS70c

Myriam Benisty, Jaehan Bae, Stefano Facchini +14

PDS70 is a unique system in which two protoplanets, PDS70b and c, have been discovered within the dust-depleted cavity of their disk, at 22 and 34au respectively, by direct i…

Impact of Differential Dust Settling on the SED and Polarization: Application to the Inner Region of the HL Tau Disk

Takahiro Ueda, Akimasa Kataoka, Shangjia Zhang +3

The polarimetric observations on the protoplanetary disk around HL Tau have shown the scattering-induced polarization at ALMA Band 7, which indicates that the maximum dust size is…

Spiral Arms and a Massive Dust Disk with non-Keplerian Kinematics: Possible Evidence for Gravitational Instability in the Disk of Elias 2-27

T. Paneque-Carreño, L. M. Perez, M. Benisty +16

To determine the origin of the spiral structure observed in the dust continuum emission of Elias 2-27 we analyze multi-wavelength continuum ALMA data with a resolution of 0.2…
