How are stars like our Sun formed? What happens in the planet-forming region at the time of planet formation? What happens in the planet-forming region at the time of planet formation? How do planets form and acquire their final mass? These are the kind of questions we are investigating within the astrophysics team at the University of Dundee. <\/p>\n

Planet and star formation is one of the most fascinating topics for us humans, living on a planet, and we are therefore also very interested in revealing our findings, and exploring different ways to help the public participate in our daily research life. Our collaboration with the artist duo Semiconductor<\/em> allows us to inspire the public to think and wonder about the capabilities of mapping what is nearly invisible, raising awareness in science communities about what can be achieved through art-science collaborations.<\/p>\n

 Observationally-based answers have to deal with one fact: the highest spatial resolution available nowadays is not enough to observe the immediate surroundings of stars. To gain information on the tiny scales of stellar radii and the innermost planet-forming regions of disks, indirect methods are required. Young stars are rich in emission (and absorption) lines, related to their winds, accretion, spots, and innermost disk gas. Optical lines contain a large number of atomic species that are produced in regions with a variety of physical conditions (temperatures and densities). Spectroscopy also allows us to measure the velocities of the hot and tiny structures, where the lines originate. Combining the velocity information with repeated, time-resolved data, we can reconstruct scales beyond the spatial resolution of interferometers.<\/p>\n

Using time-resolved spectroscopy covering several rotational and disk orbital periods, we can obtain a very detailed view of the structure and variability of accretion columns and spots and information on the presence and launching points of stellar\/disk winds in young stars. Understanding these processes and how they affect the observed spectra can also help us to identify (or rule out) the presence of young and newly-formed planets and stellar companions that may be perturbing the disk. Highly variable sources provide a further point: with the temperature varying during outbursts, we can spectroscopically access an even larger region of the disk and surroundings!<\/p>\n

Observationally, we are currently working on the analysis of the spectra of young stars with different masses and behaviours, using the STAR-MELT code we are creating in Dundee. Emission line tomography and time-resolved data allow us to explore the structures around these objects by “reading between their (spectral) lines”… and maybe help us in the future to investigate young planet formation and to unveil why wild, and variable stars are so wild!<\/p>\n

Dr Aurora Sicilia-Aguilar is a Reader at the University of Dundee and Physics Public Engagement Officer. She is also the SUPA Theme Leader for Astronomy & Space Science. She has worked in Spain, the USA, Germany, and, since 2013, the UK. She works with multiwavelength data from ground- and space-based telescopes to study the formation of stars and planets, in particular, using time-resolved observations to reveal what happens in the innermost regions around young stars, beyond what can be directly imaged. She is also the PI of the North-PHASE project, running at the Javalambre Observatory since February 2023.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Dr Soko Matsumura is a theoretical astrophysicist, and her research primarily focuses on formation, evolution, and dynamics of planetary systems. She uses both numerical and analytical techniques to study problems that are often motivated by recent observations. In particular, she is interested in investigating the origins of orbital architecture of planetary systems, and the imprints of past orbital evolution of planetary systems on the observed systems. She is also interested in the physical processes that shape the circumstellar disks and the debris disks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
