Jovian planets througout the 0.05-5 AU region.

And…

No strong preference for orbital distances… …except for a “pile up” of hot Jupiters at P~3 days.

Disk-star- and protoplanet interactions lead to migration while the gas is

  • present. Core-

accretion & ice?

Why do we care about gas & ice in disks? Theory Observation?

1 AU at 140 pc subtends 0."007. Jupiter (5 AU): Vdoppler = 13 m/s Vorbit = 13 km/s

Characterizing large disk samples? SED Models:

IR disk surface within several 0.1 – several tens of AU (sub)mm disk surface at large radii, disk interior.

Statistically, how long do gas/dust rich disks “survive”? Basic result: Disks dissipate within a few Myr, but with a large disp. for any SINGLE

  • system. When

they go, however, the dissipation is FAST in comparison w/ disk “lifetime.”

Disk chemistry?

Depending on dust opacity, cores may spend a long time in the “plateau” phase before runaway gas accretion. Form cores closely spaced in higher density region.

Need spatially resolved measurements of disk gas & its composition.

Enter ALMA:

Llano de Chajnantor; 5000 m, good for astronomy, tough for humans!

Superb site & large array exceptional performance (50 12m telescopes, by 2012).

Dust simulation (L.G. Mundy), realistic phase errors, but no CLEAN/MEM.

When rings are seen around >10 Myr old stars… the dust must be made in place.

  • CSO/HST have reached similar

conclusions about structure of the disk around Fomalhaut and how it is generated. Is there a planet required to maintain it?
