The disks that orbit young stars are the essential conduits and reservoirs of material for star
and planet formation. Their structures, meaning the spatial variations of the disk physical …

Abstract Herbig Ae/Be stars are young contracting stars on the radiative track in the HR
diagram on their way to the main sequence. These stars provide a valuable link between …

Abstract We introduce the Disk Substructures at High Angular Resolution Project (DSHARP),
one of the initial Large Programs conducted with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter …

Context. Young circumstellar disks are the birthplaces of planets. Their study is of prime
interest to understand the physical and chemical conditions under which planet formation …

High dust density in the midplane of protoplanetary disks is favorable for efficient grain
growth and can allow fast formation of planetesimals and planets, before disks dissipate …

We present the first part of our Disks ARound T Tauri Stars with SPHERE (DARTTS-S)
survey: observations of eight T Tauri stars that were selected based on their strong (sub) …

The sample of planet-forming disks observed by high-contrast imaging campaigns over the
last decade is mature enough to enable the demographical analysis of individual star …

We still do not understand how planets form or why extrasolar planetary systems are so
different from our own Solar System. However, the past few years have dramatically …

Context. Transition disks are protoplanetary disks with dust-depleted cavities, possibly
indicating substantial clearing of their dust content by a massive companion. For several …

Observations of circumstellar environments that look for the direct signal of exoplanets and
the scattered light from disks have significant instrumental implications. In the past 15 years …
