HD100546 represents a particularly interesting target to study dynamical planet-disk interactions as various features have been observed in both the dust and gas that provide direct and indirect evidence for ongoing planet formation. In…

We present high-angular resolution observations of the circumstellar disk around the massive Herbig Be star R Mon (M~8 Msun) in the continuum at 2.7mm and 1.3mm and the CO 1->0 and 2->1 rotational lines. Based on the new 1.3mm continuum…

Multi-wavelengths high-resolution imaging of protoplanetary disks has revealed the presence of multiple, varied substructures in their dust and gas components which might be signposts of young, forming planetary systems. AB Aurigae bears an…

We present ALMA band 6 images of the 12CO, 13CO and C18O J=2-1 line emissions for the circumstellar disc around HD 169142, at ~8 au spatial resolution. We resolve a central gas depleted cavity, along with two independent near-symmetric…

We present observations of pure rotational molecular hydrogen emission from the Herbig Ae star, AB Aurigae. Our observations were made using the Texas Echelon Cross Echelle Spectrograph (TEXES) at the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility and…
