摘要:

我们目前的ALMA连续谱和谱线数据在0.89毫米和3.2毫米的三个磁盘周围的年轻棕矮星和非常低质量的恒星在金牛座恒星形成区。尘埃的热发射检测和空间分辨的所有三个磁盘,而CO(J=3-2)的排放被认为是在两个磁盘。我们分析了尘埃中的连续谱,并对尘埃盘的物理结构进行了约束。我们的分析结果表明,这些盘相对较大,最小的一个外半径约为70 AU。推断出的磁盘半径,径向档案的尘埃表面密度和磁盘中心的物体质量比的范围内发现磁盘周围更大的年轻恒星。我们从我们的观察毫米尘埃不透明度的波长依赖性。在所有三个圆盘中,数据都与至少毫米大小的颗粒的存在相一致,这也是在年轻恒星周围的圆盘中发现的,并证实了向微行星固体生长的早期阶段也发生在非常低质量的物体周围。我们讨论了我们的研究结果的影响模型的固体演化的原行星盘,提出的主要机制形成的褐矮星和非常低质量的恒星,以及在非常低质量的物体周围发现岩石和巨行星的潜力。

英文摘要:

We present ALMA continuum and spectral line data at 0.89 mm and 3.2 mm for three disks surrounding young brown dwarfs and very low mass stars in the Taurus star forming region. Dust thermal emission is detected and spatially resolved for all the three disks, while CO(J=3-2) emission is seen in two disks. We analyze the continuum visibilities and constrain the disks physical structure in dust. The results of our analysis show that the disks are relatively large, the smallest one with an outer radius of about 70 AU. The inferred disk radii, radial profiles of the dust surface density and disk to central object mass ratios lie within the ranges found for disks around more massive young stars. We derive from our observations the wavelength dependence of the millimeter dust opacity. In all the three disks data are consistent with the presence of grains with at least millimeter sizes, as also found for disks around young stars, and confirm that the early stages of the solid growth toward planetesimals occur also around very low mass objects. We discuss the implications of our findings on models of solids evolution in protoplanetary disks, on the main mechanisms proposed for the formation of brown dwarfs and very low mass stars, as well as on the potential of finding rocky and giant planets around very low mass objects.
