A search for accreting young companions embedded in circumstellar disks: High-contrast H imaging with VLT/SPHERE

G. Cugno, S. P. Quanz, S. Hunziker +37

Aims: We want to detect and quantify observables related to accretion processes occurring locally in circumstellar disks, which could be attributed to young forming planets. We foc…

Mapping of shadows cast on a protoplanetary disk by a close binary system

V. D'Orazi, R. Gratton, S. Desidera +47

For a comprehensive understanding of planetary formation and evolution, we need to investigate the environment in which planets form: circumstellar disks. Here we present high-cont…

PynPoint: a modular pipeline architecture for processing and analysis of high-contrast imaging data

Tomas Stolker, Markus J. Bonse, Sascha P. Quanz +4

The direct detection and characterization of planetary and substellar companions at small angular separations is a rapidly advancing field. Dedicated high-contrast imaging instrume…

Evolution of protoplanetary disks from their taxonomy in scattered light: spirals, rings, cavities, and shadows

Antonio Garufi, Myriam Benisty, Paola Pinilla +11

The variety of observed protoplanetary disks in polarimetric light motivates a taxonomical study to constrain their evolution and establish the current framework of this type of ob…

Discovery of a planetary-mass companion within the gap of the transition disk around PDS 70

M. Keppler, M. Benisty, A. Müller +123

Young circumstellar disks are of prime interest to understand the physical and chemical conditions under which planet formation takes place. Only very few detections of planet cand…

First scattered light detection of a nearly edge-on transition disk around the T Tauri star RY Lup

M. Langlois, A. Pohl, A. -M. Lagrange +41

Transition disks are considered sites of ongoing planet formation, and their dust and gas distributions could be signposts of embedded planets. The transition disk around the T Tau…
