The molecular composition of the planet-forming regions of protoplanetary disks across the luminosity regime

Abstract: Context. Near-to mid-infrared observations of molecular emission from protoplanetary disks show that the inner regions are rich in small organic volatiles (e.g., C 2 H 2 and HCN). Trends in the data suggest that disks around cooler stars (T eff ≈ 3000 K) are potentially (i) more carbon-rich; and (ii) more molecule-rich than their hotter counterparts (T eff > ∼ 4000 K). Aims. We explore the chemical composition of the planet-forming region (<10 AU) of protoplanetary disks around stars over a range of spectral t… Show more

“…This sample revealed two major trends: (1) water line fluxes increase with increasing stellar luminosity (and mass; see Figures 1 and 20, and Salyk et al 2011a), and in contrast with the first trend, (2) the water vapor frequency is much higher in disks around stars of < 0.2  < M 1.5  M (with a frequency of 60%-80%) than in disks around stars of  > M 1.5  M (with a frequency of <20%; see Table 1, Figure 10, and Pontoppidan et al 2010a). Recent chemical modeling of the molecular content of inner disks by Walsh et al (2015), while able to reproduce the luminosity trend, was still unable to reproduce the absence of Table 1 are shown as black dots.…”

“…Table 1 summarizes the properties, samples, and detection rates for all major surveys of water vapor in protoplanetary disks, including this work. The general trends identified to date are shown in Figure 1, and are compared to expectations produced by recent models of water in disks (Antonellini et al 2015;Walsh et al 2015). 7 We investigate the measured line fluxes against the masses of the central stars,  M , as an alternative way to look at the spectral-type dependencies found by Pontoppidan et al (2010a).…”
