Demographics of young stars and their protoplanetary disks: lessons learned on disk evolution and its connection to planet formation
read the original abstract
Since Protostars and Planets VI (PPVI), our knowledge of the global properties of protoplanetary and debris disks, as well as of young stars, has dramatically improved. At the time of PPVI, mm-observations and optical to near-infrared spectroscopic surveys were largely limited to the Taurus star-forming region, especially of its most massive disk and stellar population. Now, near-complete surveys of multiple star-forming regions cover both spectroscopy of young stars and mm interferometry of their protoplanetary disks. This provides an unprecedented statistical sample of stellar masses and mass accretion rates, as well as disk masses and radii, for almost 1000 young stellar objects within 300 pc from us, while also sampling different evolutionary stages, ages, and environments. At the same time, surveys of debris disks are revealing the bulk properties of this class of more evolved objects. This chapter reviews the statistics of these measured global star and disk properties and discusses their constraints on theoretical models describing global disk evolution. Our comparisons of observations to theoretical model predictions extends beyond the traditional viscous evolution framework to include analytical descriptions of magnetic wind effects. Finally, we discuss how recent observational results can provide a framework for models of planet population synthesis and planet formation.

Angular Momentum of Planet-Forming Disks: Implications for Infall Driven Misalignments
Most Class II disks have lower total angular momentum than late Bondi–Hoyle cloud infall is predicted to supply, so late-stage streamers can reorient disks and explain observed misalignments.

LBT-MODS spectroscopy of young stellar objects in the distant metal-poor star forming region Sh2-284: Stellar and accretion properties
In the metal-poor region Sh2-284, disk-bearing young stars accrete at a median rate of ~2.2e-8 Msun/yr, comparable to solar-metallicity regions, with tentative evidence that accretion-tracer flux relations flatten at ...

Planetesimal Formation Across the Stellar Mass Spectrum and its Influence on Exoplanet-Inherited Volatile Budgets
Discs around 0.1 M⊙ M-dwarfs form all their planetesimals within the 26Al half-life, so the resulting planetesimals—and likely rocky planets—are dehydrated and volatile-poor.

Modeling the curved dust sublimation front in protoplanetary disks: a potential probe of midplane turbulence
Self-consistent curved dust wall models for T Tauri disks indicate that matching observed JHK colors requires millimeter grains lifted 0.5-3 scale heights above the midplane, implying high midplane turbulence.
