Abstract: Compact protoplanetary disks with a radius of 50 au are common around young low-mass stars. We report high resolution ALMA dust continuum observations toward a compact disk around CW Tau at Band 4 (λ = 2.2 mm), 6 (1.3 mm), 7 (0.89 mm) and 8 (0.75 mm). The SED shows the spectral slope of 2.0±0.24 between 0.75 and 1.3 mm, while it is 3.7±0.29 between 2.17 and 3.56 mm. The steep slope between 2.17 and 3.56 mm is consistent with that of optically thin emission from small grains ( 350 µm). We perform parametric fit… Show more

“…At each position, the fittings generally lead to two families of probable solutions, one with a max 300 µm and a higher surface density (small dust solution), and the other with a max 1mm and lower surface density (large dust solution). Such a degeneracy in the SED fittings is also pointed out by the recent case studies on the CW Tau disk (Ueda et al 2022). We also draw the positions of the clumps in the images (dashed line).…”

“…Millimetric emissions partially or totally dominated by optically thick structures has been invoked to explain the sizeluminosity relationship found in 50 nearby PPDs (Tripathi et al 2017) as well as multi-band ALMA observations for a sample of 26 bright PPDs in the Lupus SFR (Tazzari et al 2021). Ueda et al (2022) found that in the case of CW Tau the disk mass can be underestimated due to opacity effects if the measurement is carried out from ALMA bands 6-8 (1.3-0.75 mm), highlighting again the importance of multi-band observations and a proper modeling of the dust opacity.…”
