摘要:

星周盘中的颗粒生长被认为是形成行星系统的第一步。现在有证据表明,在年轻恒星周围的几个圆盘中存在晶粒生长。星周盘中颗粒生长的径向分辨图像被认为是约束尘埃演化模型和行星形成初始阶段的有力工具。在本文中,我们试图提供这些限制的磁盘周围的年轻恒星CQ头。以前的研究已经提出这个系统可以容纳大量的谷物。本文介绍了SMA、IRAM-PdBI和NRAO-VLA干涉仪在850 μ m ~ 3.6 cm波段获得的新的高角分辨率(0.3-0.9角秒)观测结果。我们进行了综合分析的光谱能量分布和高分辨率图像在不同的波长,使用一个模型来描述尘埃的热辐射从拱盘。我们包括从系统的内部区域的气体排放的处方。我们通过将圆盘平均尘埃不透明度系数β(在1.3和7毫米之间计算)限制为0.6+/-0.1来检测演化尘埃的存在。这证实了早期的建议,即磁盘包含尘埃颗粒增长到显着的大小,并把这一坚实的理由,严格限制气体污染的观测通量在毫米厘米波长。我们报告了一些证据的径向变化的尘埃属性,但目前的分辨率和灵敏度仍然太低,最终的结果。

英文摘要:

Grain growth in circumstellar disks is expected to be the first step towards the formation of planetary systems. There is now evidence for grain growth in several disks around young stars. Radially resolved images of grain growth in circumstellar disks are believed to be a powerful tool to constrain the dust evolution models and the initial stage for the formation of planets. In this paper we attempt to provide these constraints for the disk surrounding the young star CQ Tau. This system was already suggested from previous studies to host a population of grains grown to large sizes. We present new high angular resolution (0.3-0.9 arcsec) observations at wavelengths from 850um to 3.6cm obtained at the SMA, IRAM-PdBI and NRAO-VLA interferometers. We perform a combined analysis of the spectral energy distribution and of the high-resolution images at different wavelengths using a model to describe the dust thermal emission from the circumstellar disk. We include a prescription for the gas emission from the inner regions of the system. We detect the presence of evolved dust by constraining the disk averaged dust opacity coefficient beta (computed between 1.3 and 7mm) to be 0.6+/-0.1. This confirms the earlier suggestions that the disk contains dust grains grown to significant sizes and puts this on firmer grounds by tightly constraining the gas contamination to the observed fluxes at mm-cm wavelengths. We report some evidence of radial variations in dust properties, but current resolution and sensitivity are still too low for definitive results.
