Empirical Constraints on the CO Snowline Transition in HD 163296: The Local CO Column and $^{13}$C$^{18}$O Optical Depth

CO isotopologue emission is widely used to infer gas masses and volatile carbon abundances in protoplanetary disks, but converting line emission into a CO column depends on optical depth, temperature structure, linewidth, and isotope ratios. Inferring CO/H$_2$ additionally requires an independent constraint on the local hydrogen column. We use high-resolution $^{13}$C$^{18}$O $2$-$1$ observations of HD 163296 to derive a spatially localized empirical constraint on the CO column at the resolved CO snowline edge. We focus on the 70-75 au annulus, on the inner, high-column side of the observed profile steepening near 75 au. Using RADEX slab calculations conditioned on a two-dimensional temperature structure, we infer an effective beam-averaged CO column from the absolute integrated intensity. Across representative temperatures, isotope-ratio pairs, and effective local linewidths of 0.30 and 0.50 km s$^{-1}$, we find $N_{\rm CO}^{\rm beam}=(1.6-2.4)\times10^{20}$ cm$^{-2}$ and $^{13}$C$^{18}$O line-center optical depths $\tau=0.39-0.97$. Thus, even this rare isotopologue is not safely optically thin at the snowline edge. Adopting $N_{\rm H2}=2.5\times10^{24}$ cm$^{-2}$ from a published parametric gas surface-density profile gives the conditional abundance ${\rm CO/H_2}=(6.4-9.5)\times10^{-5}$. A beam-forward radial-profile analysis gives consistent columns, and a physical disk model with a near-canonical warm-layer CO abundance supplies a comparable CO column. The measurement is consistent with the higher C$^{17}$O-based MAPS estimate. For the adopted hydrogen column, the inferred CO/H$_2$ ratio is consistent with a near-canonical abundance on the warm side of the snowline.

Dust characterization of the HD 163296 disk with high-resolution multi-wavelength ALMA observations

Context. Planets form through the growth and accumulation of dust grains in protoplanetary disks. Characterizing dust properties such as size, surface density, and temperature is key to understanding planet formation. Aims. We characterize the dust properties of the protoplanetary disk around HD 163296 by performing spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting of multi-wavelength high-resolution observations. Methods. We present new high-resolution ALMA Band 9 (0.45 mm) observations, which are sensitive to the temperature. We performed SED fitting at a common resolution of 0.066 arcsec using these new Band 9 observations along with archival ALMA Band 3, 4, 6, and 7 observations. We compared the fitted results with VLA observations and explored multiple dust models with different optical constants and porosities. Results. The Band 9 image shows the central disk, two rings at 0.67 and 1.00 arcsec, and outer extended emission previously seen at other wavelengths. At higher frequencies, the rings appear wider, the gaps appear shallower, and the extended emission appears brighter, which can be explained by optical-depth effects and/or size segregation. We characterized the dust properties, including temperature, surface density, and dust size, for each dust model. However, the inferred dust properties are dependent on the dust model, and the ALMA data alone do not allow us to determine which dust model is preferred. We identified the DSHARP Zubko (porous) model as the preferred model based on VLA profiles and physical and observational constraints. The outer ring temperature is lower than predicted by a passively irradiated disk model, suggesting shadowing by the inner ring. Although the surface density and dust size depend on the dust model, the preferred model indicates that the central disk, both rings, and the extended disk each contain more than a few Earth masses of dust.

Interpreting ALMA Multiwavelength Continuum Observations of PDS 70 c: An Optically Thick Dust Ring in the Circumplanetary Disk

Giant planets form small gas disks, called circumplanetary disks (CPDs), during gas accretion. The CPD of PDS 70 c has been detected by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in (sub)millimeter continuum emission, which is interpreted as thermal emission from dust in the CPD. The resulting spectral index suggests that the disk is optically thick over a wide range of wavelengths. However, this is inconsistent with previous CPD dust models, which predict that the disk is optically thin because of radial dust drift. Here, we present a new interpretation of the multiwavelength observations: the CPD hosts an optically thick dust ring, whose existence has been discussed in the context of satellite formation. We demonstrate that a dust-ring model that incorporates gas accretion, dust evolution, and dust thermal emission, is consistent with the observations under reasonable conditions, whereas a conventional ring-less model requires more stringent conditions. We also show that the dust ring inferred from the observations potentially satisfies the conditions for exomoon formation via streaming instability and subsequent gravitational instability.

Substructures in Planet-Forming Disks with the SKAO

Disks of gas and dust orbiting young stars are the arenas and material reservoirs for planet formation. Over the past decade, multiwavelength observations, from infrared to radio, have resolved the spatial distribution of hundreds of protoplanetary disks in nearby star-forming regions, revealing a diverse zoo of substructures. These substructures are morphological features such as rings, gaps, spirals, vortices, asymmetries, warps, or clumps that trace variations in density, temperature, or composition relative to an otherwise smooth distribution of gas and dust. Many unknowns persist as to the origin of these substructures, their role in planet assembly, and their true properties. SKA-Mid Band 5b continuum observations, offering angular resolutions of $\sim 0.05''$ ($\sim 0.15''$) with AA4 (AA*) at $12.5$ GHz / $2.4$ cm, will enable new progress at this frontier. In this chapter, we outline the open questions in the field of disk substructure that SKA-Mid is uniquely poised to address, with a lens on dust thermal emission.

Thermal instability and rocky planetesimal formation in the inner regions of protoplanetary disks

The inner regions of protoplanetary disks are promising formation sites of rocky planetesimals. Theoretical studies have proposed that dust trapping at the magnetorotational instability (MRI) activation boundary, or the dead-zone inner edge, promotes planetesimal formation. However, the inner disk may be thermally unstable, in which case the dead-zone inner edge may not remain steady, and the associated pressure maximum and dust trap may not be maintained. In this study, we propose a scenario in which planetesimals form in a thermally unstable inner disk through dust self-accumulation driven by the coevolution of dust and disk temperature. To this end, we simultaneously calculate the non-equilibrium thermal evolution, the evolution of the gas and dust surface densities, dust growth, and planetesimal formation. Our results show that thermal instability triggers cyclic MRI activation and deactivation, during which planetesimals form. The MRI is activated in the inner disk, and thermal instability causes the active region to expand outward and then return to an inactive state, producing a periodic cycle. Triggered by a local enhancement in the dust surface density, dust undergoes self-accumulation while migrating inward during the MRI-inactive phase, resulting in planetesimal formation. Once the MRI is reactivated at a smaller radius, the next cycle begins. For a typical accretion rate of $10^{-8}M_{\odot}~{\rm yr^{-1}}$, a planetesimal belt forms near 1 au. Depending on the model parameters, approximately 10$-$80% of the dust flowing into the planetesimal-forming region is converted into planetesimals. This mechanism produces sufficient planetesimal mass for the formation of multiple super-Earths. The resulting planetesimal distribution can serve as a physically motivated initial condition for subsequent planet formation simulations.

Two-loop quarkonium Hamiltonian in annihilation channel

We calculate the two-loop quarkonium Hamiltonian in the annihilation channel within the framework of potential-NRQCD effective field theory. The result agrees with the previous calculation of the corresponding four-quark operator in NRQCD for SU(N) color gauge group. We further obtain an expression with a more general color structure applicable to other gauge groups. Combined with the recently calculated two-loop Hamiltonian in the non-annihilation channel, this completes the full two-loop quarkonium Hamiltonian.

Multi-wavelength ALMA Imaging of HD 34282: Dust-trapping Signatures of a Vortex Candidate

Azimuthal arcs in millimeter continuum emission from protoplanetary disks are often attributed to dust-trapping vortices, but definitive observational confirmation of vortices remains lacking. We present sub-0.1" resolution ALMA continuum observations of the HD 34282 disk at 0.9, 1.3, 2.1, and 3.1 mm. These observations resolve a bright azimuthal arc superposed on a compact double-gap, triple-ring morphology, most clearly at shorter wavelengths, and enable us to probe the physical origin of the arc. It exhibits a lower spectral index than the surrounding rings, consistent with enhanced grain growth and/or higher dust surface density of a dust-trapping vortex. Its azimuthal width decreases with increasing wavelength, consistent with tighter confinement of larger grains, or lower optical depths at longer wavelengths. These observations probe dust with Stokes numbers St < 0.03. Vortex models predict negligible peak shifts in this regime, consistent with the 1.3 to 3.1 mm data. At 0.9 mm, however, the arc peak is offset by 15 +/- 4 degree in the direction of disk rotation relative to longer wavelengths, and the near-side ring emission is locally dimmer compared to the far-side, likely reflecting optical-depth or temperature effects. These observations are consistent with azimuthal dust trapping, potentially associated with a vortex-induced pressure maximum.

Grain growth in protoplanetary disks in the Upper Scorpius revealed by millimeter-wave spectral indices

The measurement of dust size from millimeter-wavelength spectra provides direct constraints on grain growth in protoplanetary disks. The spectral indices between 0.88 mm and 2.9 mm have been measured in multiple young star-forming regions, such as Taurus, Ophiuchus, and Lupus, which have ages of 1-3 Myr. These spectral indices are as low as 2-3, suggesting that grains in disks are much larger than those in the interstellar medium. In this study, we analyze the ALMA archival data of 23 disks in the Upper Scorpius region. The observed wavelength is 2.9 mm in Band 3, the angular resolution is 3.3 arcsec x 2.1 arcsec, which is not high enough to resolve the targets, and the rms noise is below 0.075 mJy beam$^{-1}$ for almost all sources. Together with the literature values of the Band 7 fluxes of the same targets, we find that the average spectral index of the disks in the Upper Scorpius region is $\alpha_\mathrm{mm}=2.09 \pm 0.10$, which is equal to or slightly smaller than those at the other younger regions. To explain the relationship between the fluxes and spectral indices of the disks in the Taurus, Ophiuchus, Lupus, and Upper Scorpius regions, we construct simple disk evolution models. The observations are best reproduced by models in which the inner radius of the disk increases. This suggests that a substantial amount of dust mass must persist in the outer disk regions where the dust temperature is lower than 20 K even at late evolutionary stages. These findings offer key insights into the grain growth and the temporal evolution of protoplanetary disks.

Multi dust species inner rim in magnetized protoplanetary disks

The inner regions of protoplanetary disks, within ten astronomical units, are where terrestrial planets are born. By developing a new class of multi-dust radiative magnetized inner rim models, we can gain valuable insights into the conditions during planet formation. Our goal is twofold: to study the influence of highly refractory dust species on the inner rim shape and to determine how the magnetic field affects the inner disk structure. The resulting temperature and density structures are analyzed and compared to observations. The comparison focuses on a median SED of Herbig stars and interferometric constraints from the H, K, and N-band of three Herbig-type star-disk systems: HD 100546, HD 163296, and HD 169142. We investigate 1) the influence of a large-scale magnetic field on the inner disk structure and 2) the effect of having the four most important dust species (corundum, iron, forsterite, and enstatite) shaping the rim. We use frequency-dependent irradiation and the effect of accretion heating. With the Optool package, we obtain frequency-dependent opacities for each dust grain family and calculate the corresponding temperature-dependent Planck and Rosseland opacities. Our models with multiple dust species show a smoother and radially more extended inner rim. Strongly magnetized disks show a substantial increase in the emission flux between the L and N-bands. Weakly magnetized disk models with large-scale vertical magnetic fields < 0.3 Gauss at 1 au best fit with NIR interferometric observations. Our model comparison supports the existence of moderate magnetic fields ($\beta$ > $10^4$), which could still drive a magnetic wind in the inner disk. Our results show that multi-dust models, including magnetic fields, still lack NIR emission, especially in the H-band. One potential solution might be a heated gas disk or evaporating objects like planetesimals close to the star.

Predictions of dust continuum observations of circumplanetary disks with ngVLA: A case study of PDS 70 c

A gas giant forms a small gas disk called a "circumplanetary disk (CPD)" around the planet during its gas accretion process. The small gas disk contains dust particles like those in a protoplanetary disk, and these particles could be the building material of large moons. A young T Tauri star PDS 70 has two gas accreting planets, and continuum emission from one of the forming planets, PDS 70 c, has been detected by ALMA Bands 6 and 7, which is considered as the dust thermal emission from its CPD. We reproduce the emission with both bands and predict how the dust emission will be observed by ngVLA by expanding the range of the wavelength from submillimeter to centimeter. We find that the flux density of the dust thermal emission can be detected with ngVLA at Band 6 (3 mm) and probably with Band 5 (7 mm) as well. We also find that the size and shape of the CPD can be constrained by observations of ngVLA Band 6 with reasonable observation time.

Detailed Microwave Continuum Spectra from Bright Protoplanetary Disks in Taurus

We present new observations that densely sample the microwave (4-360 GHz) continuum spectra from eight young systems in the Taurus region. Multi-component, empirical model prescriptions were used to disentangle the contributions from their dust disks and other emission mechanisms. We found partially optically thick, free-free emission in all these systems, with positive spectral indices (median $\alpha_{\rm c} \approx 1$ at 10 GHz) and contributing 5-50% of the 43 GHz fluxes. There is no evidence for synchrotron or spinning dust grain emission contributions for these targets. The inferred dust disk spectra all show substantial curvature: their spectral indices decrease with frequency, from $\alpha_{\rm d} \approx 2.8$-4.0 around 43 GHz to 1.7-2.1 around 340 GHz. This curvature suggests that a substantial fraction of the (sub)millimeter ($\gtrsim$ 200 GHz) dust emission may be optically thick, and therefore the traditional metrics for estimating dust masses are flawed. Assuming the emission at lower frequencies (43 GHz) is optically thin, the local spectral indices and fluxes were used to constrain the disk-averaged dust properties and estimate corresponding dust masses. These masses are roughly an order of magnitude higher ($\approx 1000 \, M_\oplus$) than those found from the traditional approach based on (sub)millimeter fluxes. These findings emphasize the value of broad spectral coverage - particularly extending to lower frequencies ($\sim$cm-band) - for accurately interpreting dust disk emission; such observations may help reshape our perspective on the available mass budgets for planet formation.

Multi-Wavelength Dust Characterization of the HL Tau Disk and Implications for Planet Formation

We present a comprehensive analysis of the HL Tau dust disk by modeling its intensity profiles across six wavelengths (0.45 to 7.9 mm) with a resolution of 0.05 arcsec ($\sim7$ au). Using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach, we constrain key dust properties including temperature, surface density, maximum grain size, composition, filling factor, and size distribution. The full fitting, with all parameters free, shows a preference for organics-rich dust with a low filling factor in the outer region ($r \gtrsim 40$ au), where the spectral index is $\sim3.7$, but amorphous-carbon-rich dust also reasonably reproduces the observed intensity profiles. Considering the scattering polarization observed at 0.87 mm, compact, amorphous-carbon-rich dust is unlikely, and moderately porous dust is favored. Beyond 40 au, the maximum dust size is likely $\sim100~{\rm \mu m}$ if dust is compact or amorphous-carbon rich. However, if the dust is moderately porous and organics-rich, both the predicted dust surface density and dust size can be sufficiently large for the pebble accretion rate to reach $\sim10M_{\oplus}~{\rm Myr^{-1}}$ in most regions, suggesting that pebble accretion could be a key mechanism for forming planets in the disk. In contrast, if the dust is amorphous-carbon-rich, forming a giant planet core via pebble accretion is unlikely due to the combined effects of low dust surface density and small dust size required to match the observed emission, suggesting other mechanisms, such as disk fragmentation due to gravitational instability, may be responsible for planet formation in the HL Tau disk.

SMA and NOEMA reveal asymmetric sub-structure in the protoplanetary disk of IRAS23077+6707

We present high-resolution data of IRAS 23077+6707 (`Dracula's Chivito') with the Submillimeter Array (SMA at 1.33 mm/225.5 GHz) and the Northern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA at 2.7 mm/111.7 GHz and 3.1 mm/96.2 GHz). IRAS 23077+6707 is a highly-inclined and newly discovered protoplanetary disk, first reported in 2024. We combine SMA baselines from the Compact, Extended and Very Extended arrays, and NOEMA baselines from its A and C configurations, and present continuum images with resolution ${\lesssim}0.8''$, which constitute the first sub-arcsecond resolution maps of IRAS 23077+6707. The images show extended linear emission that spans $5.6{-}6.1''$ as expected for a radially extended, highly-inclined protoplanetary disk. Accompanied with lower resolution data, we show that the disk has a steep spectral index, ranging from $\alpha=3.2{-}3.9$. We present evidence of multiple radial emission peaks and troughs in emission, which may originate in disk rings and a central cavity. We further present evidence that these radial structures are asymmetric; hosting a a significant brightness asymmetry, with emission enhanced by up to 50% in the north versus the south. We discuss hypotheses about the potential origins of these features, including the possibility that IRAS 23077+6707 hosts a rare example of an eccentric protoplanetary disk, which can induce these radially asymmetric structures. We present a simple eccentric continuum model of IRAS 23077+6707, and show for an eccentricity of $e \approx 0.26$, that this can reproduce the bulk morphology of the emission.

Thermally driven spontaneous dust accumulation in the inner regions of protoplanetary disks

In protoplanetary disks, the formation of planetesimals via streaming and/or gravitational instabilities requires regions with a locally enhanced dust-to-gas mass ratio. Conventionally, gas pressure maxima sustained by gas surface density maxima have been considered as the primary cause of such dust accumulation. However, the disk's pressure structure depends not only on gas density but also on the temperature structure, which itself is influenced by the distribution of dust. In this study, we propose a novel mechanism for dust accumulation, which is driven by the coevolution of dust and disk temperature. In the inner disk region where the midplane temperature is primarily determined by the balance between viscous heating and radiative cooling, a perturbation in dust surface density distribution may affect radiative cooling efficiency, potentially producing a local maximum in the temperature and pressure profiles. To test this hypothesis, we perform coupled calculations of dust and disk temperature evolution, incorporating the advection, diffusion, coagulation, and fragmentation of dust particles along with viscous heating, radiative cooling, and radial thermal diffusion. Our results demonstrate that a pressure maximum formed by a perturbation in the dust surface density can spontaneously induce dust accumulation, even in the absence of a gas surface density maximum, under conditions where dust drift is significantly faster than diffusion and the thermal evolution occurs faster than the inward migration of dust. This mechanism requires viscous heating to dominate disk heating, and typically occurs interior to the snow line. In this spontaneous dust trap, the dust-to-gas density ratio at the midplane can exceed unity, suggesting the potential for rocky planetesimal formation via streaming and gravitational instabilities.

Support for fragile porous dust in a gravitationally self-regulated disk around IM Lup

Protoplanetary disks, the birthplace of planets, are expected to be gravitationally unstable in their early phase of evolution. IM Lup, a well-known T-Tauri star, is surrounded by a protoplanetary disk with spiral arms likely caused by gravitational instability. The IM Lup disk has been observed using various methods, but developing a unified explanatory model is challenging. Here we present a physical model of the IM Lup disk that offers a comprehensive explanation for diverse observations spanning from near-infrared to millimeter wavelengths. Our findings underscore the importance of dust fragility in retaining the observed millimeter emission and reveal the preference for moderately porous dust to explain observed millimeter polarization. We also find that the inner disk region is likely heated by gas accretion, providing a natural explanation for bright millimeter emission within 20 au. The actively heated inner region in the model casts a 100-au-scale shadow, aligning seamlessly with the near-infrared scattered light observation. The presence of accretion heating also supports the fragile dust scenario in which accretion efficiently heat the disk midplane. Due to the fragility of dust, it is unlikely that a potential embedded planet at 100 au formed via pebble accretion in a smooth disk, pointing to local dust enhancement boosting pebble accretion or alternative pathways such as outward migration or gravitational fragmentation.

The inner disk rim of HD 163296: linking radiative hydrostatic models with infrared interferometry

Previous studies of the protoplanetary disk HD 163296 revealed that the morphology of its sub-au infrared emission encompasses the terminal sublimation front of dust grains, referred to as the inner rim, but also extends into the (supposedly) dust-free region within it. Here, we present a set of radiative hydrostatic simulations of the inner rim in order to assess how much the rim alone can contribute to the observed interferometric visibilities $V$, half-light radii $R_{\mathrm{hl}}$, and fractional disk fluxes $\mathcal{F}$ in the wavelength range $1.5$--$13\,\mu\mathrm{m}$. In our set of models, we regulate the cooling efficiency of the disk via the boundary condition for radiation diffusion and we also modify the shape of the sublimation front. We find that when the cooling efficiency is reduced, the infrared photosphere at the rim becomes hotter, leading to an increase of $R_{\mathrm{hl}}$ sufficient to match the observations. However, the near-infrared disk flux is typically too low ($\mathcal{F}\simeq0.25$ at $1.5\,\mu\mathrm{m}$), resulting in H-band visibility curves located above the observed data. We show that the match to the H-band observations up to moderate baselines can be improved when a wall-shaped rather than curved sublimation front is considered. Nevertheless, our model visibilities always exhibit a bounce at long baselines, which is not observed, confirming the need for additional emission interior to the rim. In summary, our study illustrates how the temperature structure and geometry of the inner rim needs to change in order to boost the rim's infrared emission.

Dust enrichment and grain growth in a smooth disk around the DG Tau protostar revealed by ALMA triple bands frequency observations

Characterizing the physical properties of dust grains in a protoplanetary disk is critical to comprehending the planet formation process. Our study presents ALMA high-resolution observations of the young protoplanetary disk around DG Tau at a 1.3 mm dust continuum. The observations, with a spatial resolution of $\approx 0.04''$, or $\approx5$ au, revealed a geometrically thin and smooth disk without substantial substructures, suggesting that the disk retains the initial conditions of the planet formation. To further analyze the distributions of dust surface density, temperature, and grain size, we conducted a multi-band analysis with several dust models, incorporating ALMA archival data of the 0.87 mm and 3.1 mm dust polarization. The results showed that the Toomre $Q$ parameter is $\lesssim2$ at a 20 au radius, assuming a dust-to-gas mass ratio of 0.01. This implies that a higher dust-to-gas mass ratio is necessary to stabilize the disk. The grain sizes depend on the dust models, and for the DSHARP compact dust, they were found to be smaller than $\sim400$ $μ$m in the inner region ($r\lesssim20$ au), while exceeding larger than 3 mm in the outer part. Radiative transfer calculations show that the dust scale height is lower than at least one-third of the gas scale height. These distributions of dust enrichment, grain sizes, and weak turbulence strength may have significant implications for the formation of planetesimals through mechanisms such as streaming instability. We also discuss the CO snowline effect and collisional fragmentation in dust coagulation for the origin of the dust size distribution.

Porous Dust Particles in Protoplanetary Disks: Application to the HL Tau Disk

Dust particle sizes constrained from dust continuum and polarization observations by radio interferometry are inconsistent by at least an order of magnitude. Motivated by porous dust observed in small Solar System bodies (e.g., from the Rosetta mission), we explore how the dust particle's porosity affects the estimated particle sizes from these two methods. Porous particles have lower refractive indices, which affect both opacity and polarization fraction. With weaker Mie interference patterns, the porous particles have lower opacity at mm wavelengths than the compact particles if the particle size exceeds several hundred microns. Consequently, the inferred dust mass using porous particles can be up to a factor of six higher. The most significant difference between compact and porous particles is their scattering properties. The porous particles have a wider range of particle sizes with high linear polarization from dust self-scattering, allowing mm-cm-sized particles to explain polarization observations. With a Bayesian approach, we use porous particles to fit HL Tau disk's multi-wavelength continuum and mm-polarization observations from ALMA and VLA. The moderately porous particles with sizes from 1 mm-1 m can explain both continuum and polarization observations, especially in the region between 20-60 au. If the particles in HL Tau are porous, the porosity should be from 70% to 97% from current polarization observations. We also predict that future observations of the self-scattering linear polarization at longer wavelengths (e.g., ALMA B1 and ngVLA) have the potential to further constrain the particle's porosity and size.
