Transition disks: the observational revolution from SEDs to imaging
N van der Marel - The European Physical Journal Plus, 2023 - epjplus.epj.org
Protoplanetary disks surrounding young stars are the birth place of planets. Of particular
interest are the transition disks with large inner dust cavities of tens of au, hinting at the …

Dust-depleted inner disks in a large sample of transition disks through long-baseline ALMA observations
L Francis, N van der Marel - The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
Transition disks with large inner dust cavities are thought to host massive companions.
However, the disk structure inside the companion orbit and how material flows toward an …

ALMA unveils rings and gaps in the protoplanetary system HD 169142: signatures of two giant protoplanets
The protoplanetary system HD 169142 is one of the few cases where a potential candidate
protoplanet has recently been detected by direct imaging in the near-infrared. To study the …

Millimeter-wave polarization of protoplanetary disks due to dust scattering
We present a new method to constrain the grain size in protoplanetary disks with
polarization observations at millimeter wavelengths. If dust grains are grown to the size …

Global simulations of protoplanetary disks with net magnetic flux-i. non-ideal mhd case
W Béthune, G Lesur, J Ferreira - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2017 - aanda.org
Context. The planet-forming region of protoplanetary disks is cold, dense, and therefore
weakly ionized. For this reason, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is thought to be …

Shadows cast by a warp in the HD 142527 protoplanetary disk
Detailed observations of gaps in protoplanetary disks have revealed structures that drive
current research on circumstellar disks. One such feature is the two intensity nulls seen …

Observational signatures of planets in protoplanetary disks. I. Gaps opened by single and multiple young planets in disks
It has been suggested that the gaps and cavities recently discovered in transitional disks are
opened by planets. To explore this scenario, we combine two-dimensional two fluid (gas+ …

Multiwavelength analysis for interferometric (sub-) mm observations of protoplanetary disks-Radial constraints on the dust properties and the disk structure
Context. The growth of dust grains from sub-μm to mm and cm sizes is the first step towards
the formation of planetesimals. Theoretical models of grain growth predict that dust …
