A new grid of disk models with grain-surface CO chemistry plus an ML inference tool produces gas mass estimates from ALMA observations that match independent dynamical and HD values without requiring extreme elemental depletion.
V1094 Sco's disk shows a planet-like double gap at ~100 au and outer rings matching secular gravitational instability, implying a hybrid origin for ring-gap pairs in one disk.
One migrating planet produces multiple observable dust rings and gaps lasting ≥400 kyr; cooling controls jump number but not structure lifetime.
2D radiation-hydrodynamical simulations find accretion outbursts unstable to Rossby-wave instability, forming vortices that suppress planetesimal formation until post-burst quiescence.
Spectral decomposition of 26 T Tauri disks finds Mg-rich silicate dust with 5-24% crystallinity and correlations linking annealed silica to stronger CO2 emission and forsterite to stronger H2O emission.
Nonlinear shock formation dominates angular momentum deposition from planet-induced density waves, cooling matches it for sub-thermal planets, and viscosity only matters at unrealistically high values.
Modeling of ALMA observations reveals diverse vertical heights for millimeter dust in six protoplanetary disks, from very thin in T Cha and PDS 111 to extended in DoAr 25, with models failing to match small dust distributions.
ALMA observations of 100 Ophiuchus discs show substructures linked to giant planet formation are common in discs above 10 Earth masses of dust and increase from Class I to Class II stages.
Halos in Elias 2-24, IM Lup, and DM Tau hold 20-30% of total dust mass with cm-sized grains, helping resolve the disk mass-budget problem even though drift and growth timescales are shorter than disk ages.
Simulations require 2000 Earth masses of pebbles to match observed disc gaps, but this produces mostly gas giants and few super-Earths, contradicting exoplanet data.
An upgraded planet population synthesis model incorporates post-disc dynamical evolution and atmospheric enrichment to generate synthetic exoplanet populations with improved fidelity to N-body results and observations.
The Bern Model has incorporated MHD disk evolution, pebble accretion, and improved interiors, yielding quantitative matches to exoplanet mass functions, radius distributions, and system architectures.
ALMA observed 3933 independent coordinates in nearby star-forming regions for disks and planet formation, analyzed by sky location, frequency coverage, exposure time, spectral lines, and angular resolution.
