  • Chemical Evolution of Protoplanetary Disks-The Effects of Viscous Accretion, Turbulent Mixing and Disk Winds
    Draft version June 5, 2018 Preprint typeset using LATEX style emulateapj v. 11/10/09 CHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF PROTOPLANETARY DISKS – THE EFFECTS OF VISCOUS ACCRETION, TURBULENT MIXING AND DISK WINDS D. Heinzeller1 and H. Nomura Department of Astronomy, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University, Kyoto 606-8502, Japan and C. Walsh and T. J. Millar Astrophysics Research Centre, School of Mathematics and Physics, Queen’s University Belfast, Belfast, BT7 1NN, UK Draft version June 5, 2018 ABSTRACT We calculate the chemical evolution of protoplanetary disks considering radial viscous accretion, vertical turbulent mixing and vertical disk winds. We study the effects on the disk chemical structure when different models for the formation of molecular hydrogen on dust grains are adopted. Our gas- phase chemistry is extracted from the UMIST Database for Astrochemistry (Rate06) to which we have added detailed gas-grain interactions. We use our chemical model results to generate synthetic near- and mid-infrared LTE line emission spectra and compare these with recent Spitzer observations. Our results show that if H2 formation on warm grains is taken into consideration, the H2O and OH abundances in the disk surface increase significantly. We find the radial accretion flow strongly influences the molecular abundances, with those in the cold midplane layers particularly affected. On the other hand, we show that diffusive turbulent mixing affects the disk chemistry in the warm molecular layers, influencing the line emission from the disk and subsequently improving agreement with observations. We find that NH3, CH3OH, C2H2 and sulphur-containing species are greatly enhanced by the inclusion of turbulent mixing.

    A&A 462, L41–L44 (2007) Astronomy DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361:20066693 & c ESO 2007 Astrophysics Letter to the Editor Discovery of variable X-ray absorption in the cTTS AA Tauri J. H. M. M. Schmitt and J. Robrade Hamburger Sternwarte, Gojenbergsweg 112, 21029 Hamburg, Germany e-mail: [email protected] Received 3 November 2006 / Accepted 6 December 2006 ABSTRACT We present XMM-Newton X-ray and UV observations of the classical T Tauri star AA Tau covering almost two rotational periods where Prot ∼ 8.5 days. Clear, but uncorrelated variability is found at both wavebands. The variability observed at ∼2100 Å follows the previously known optical period. Spectral analysis of the X-ray data results in significant variability in the X-ray absorption such that the times of maximal X-ray absorption and UV extinction coincide. Placing the coronal emission in regions at low up to moderate magnetic latitudes and attribution of the variable X-ray absorption to accretion curtains and/or the disk warp provides a consistent physical picture. However, the derived X-ray absorption and optical extinction at times of maximal optical/UV brightness, i.e. outside occultation, are difficult to reconcile, requiring additional absorption in a disk wind or a peculiar dust grain distribution. Key words. X-rays: stars – stars: pre-main sequence – stars: coronae – stars: activity 1. Introduction warp leads to a partial occultation of AA Tau’s photosphere, thus causing the observed almost achromatic brightness variations.

  • The UV Perspective of Low-Mass Star Formation

Moritz Günther 2 and Kevin France 3 1 Hamburger Sternwarte, University of Hamburg, 21029 Hamburg, Germany 2 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research; Cambridge, MA 02109, USA; [email protected] 3 Department of Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics, University of Colorado, Denver, CO 80203, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 16 January 2020; Accepted: 29 February 2020; Published: 21 March 2020 Abstract: The formation of low-mass (M? . 2 M ) stars in molecular clouds involves accretion disks and jets, which are of broad astrophysical interest. Accreting stars represent the closest examples of these phenomena. Star and planet formation are also intimately connected, setting the starting point for planetary systems like our own. The ultraviolet (UV) spectral range is particularly suited for studying star formation, because virtually all relevant processes radiate at temperatures associated with UV emission processes or have strong observational signatures in the UV range. In this review, we describe how UV observations provide unique diagnostics for the accretion process, the physical properties of the protoplanetary disk, and jets and outflows. Keywords: star formation; ultraviolet; low-mass stars 1. Introduction Stars form in molecular clouds. When these clouds fragment, localized cloud regions collapse into groups of protostars. Stars with final masses between 0.08 M and 2 M , broadly the progenitors of Sun-like stars, start as cores deeply embedded in a dusty envelope, where they can be seen only in the sub-mm and far-IR spectral windows (so-called class 0 sources).

Received 2005 January 7; in original form 2004 June 15 ABSTRACT We present Monte Carlo scattered light models of a warped disc that reproduce the observed photopolarimetric variability of the classical T Tauri star, AA Tauri. For a system inclination of 75◦ and using an analytic description for a warped inner disc, we find that the shape and amplitude of the photopolarimetric variability are reproduced with a warp that occults the star, located at 0.07 au, amplitude 0.016 au, extending over radial and azimuthal ranges 0.0084 au and 145◦.Wealso show a time sequence of high spatial resolution scattered light images, showing a dark shadow cast by the warp sweeping round the disc. Using a modified smooth particle hydrodynamics code, we find that a stellar dipole magnetic field of strength 5.2 kG, inclined at 30◦ to the stellar rotation axis can reproduce the required disc warping to explain the photopolarimetric variability of AA Tau.

After years of close collaboration, the two major Portuguese research units dedicated to the study of the Universe took the final step in the creation of a research infrastructure with a national dimension – guaranteeing the foundations for a long term sustainable development of one of the most high impact areas in Portugal. The vision proposed for the IA, and for the development of Astronomy, Astrophysics and Space Sciences in Portugal, is a bold one, and one that has been clearly shown during 2015 to be within reach. Over the course of this first year, a team of more than 120 people, including over 100 researchers, actively contributed to the development of the IA, strengthening a comprehensive portfolio of projects covering most of the topics that are presently, and for the next decade, at the forefront of research in Astrophysics and Space Sciences.

Classical T Tauri stars are young solar-type stars accreting material from their circumstellar disks. Thanks to a favorable inclination of the system, the classical T Tauri star AA Tau exhibits periodic optical eclipses as the warped inner disk edge occults the stellar photosphere. Aims. We intend to observe the X-ray and UV emission of AA Tau during the optical eclipses with the aim of localizing these emitting regions on the star. Methods. AA Tau was observed for about 5 h per XMM-Newton orbit (2 days) over 8 successive orbits, which covers two optical eclipse periods (8.22 days). The XMM-Newton optical/UV monitor simultaneously provided UV photometry (UVW2 filter at 206 nm) with a ∼15 min sampling rate.
