1 00:00:04,789 --> 00:00:03,190 good afternoon to everyone on the east 2 00:00:06,550 --> 00:00:04,799 coast and good morning to those of you 3 00:00:08,470 --> 00:00:06,560 in hawaii who have 4 00:00:10,470 --> 00:00:08,480 woken up at this early hour to join us 5 00:00:12,870 --> 00:00:10,480 some of you are probably calling in from 6 00:00:17,029 --> 00:00:12,880 uh from home we appreciate you coming 7 00:00:19,029 --> 00:00:17,039 along and i'm uh presenting from the new 8 00:00:22,230 --> 00:00:19,039 home with nai you may see some boxes 9 00:00:23,990 --> 00:00:22,240 behind us it's because we're we're uh 10 00:00:25,590 --> 00:00:24,000 we're getting up and running and marco's 11 00:00:27,429 --> 00:00:25,600 done a great job of 12 00:00:29,910 --> 00:00:27,439 moving all the technical connections 13 00:00:31,990 --> 00:00:29,920 over to this new site and 14 00:00:33,670 --> 00:00:32,000 looks like looks like it's working keep 15 00:00:35,830 --> 00:00:33,680 our fingers crossed 16 00:00:38,069 --> 00:00:35,840 so welcome to the first far seminar in a 17 00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:38,079 while i'm very glad that we have 12 18 00:00:41,030 --> 00:00:40,000 flights connecting today 19 00:00:44,630 --> 00:00:41,040 and 20 00:00:45,670 --> 00:00:44,640 this is a kickoff of 21 00:00:48,150 --> 00:00:45,680 kind of 22 00:00:50,549 --> 00:00:48,160 re-building the student and postdoctoral 23 00:00:52,310 --> 00:00:50,559 community and we'll be doing some other 24 00:00:53,670 --> 00:00:52,320 activities along with the far seminars 25 00:00:54,709 --> 00:00:53,680 which you'll get some emails from me 26 00:00:57,029 --> 00:00:54,719 about 27 00:00:59,189 --> 00:00:57,039 and i'm going to turn it over to carl 28 00:01:01,830 --> 00:00:59,199 pilcher who will be doing the 29 00:01:03,029 --> 00:01:01,840 introductions for today's far seminar 30 00:01:05,350 --> 00:01:03,039 carl 31 00:01:06,950 --> 00:01:05,360 well hello everybody as uh estelle said 32 00:01:09,350 --> 00:01:06,960 good morning good afternoon depending 33 00:01:12,469 --> 00:01:09,360 upon where you are or good really really 34 00:01:14,390 --> 00:01:12,479 early morning for hawaii 35 00:01:16,149 --> 00:01:14,400 when i became director of the nai about 36 00:01:18,390 --> 00:01:16,159 a year ago one of my first questions is 37 00:01:20,230 --> 00:01:18,400 why did we ever stop the far seminar 38 00:01:22,870 --> 00:01:20,240 because it always struck me that this 39 00:01:24,870 --> 00:01:22,880 was really a great thing to do i'm 40 00:01:27,429 --> 00:01:24,880 really really glad that we're doing it 41 00:01:29,270 --> 00:01:27,439 again i want to thank estelle for 42 00:01:31,429 --> 00:01:29,280 helping us get organized but i want to 43 00:01:33,749 --> 00:01:31,439 look at everybody who's 44 00:01:37,670 --> 00:01:33,759 participating today and pointed all of 45 00:01:41,350 --> 00:01:37,680 you and say i really would like you all 46 00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:41,360 to take ownership of this and to really 47 00:01:45,830 --> 00:01:43,200 do the organization identify the 48 00:01:48,230 --> 00:01:45,840 speakers and keep this all going and 49 00:01:49,749 --> 00:01:48,240 provide the energy for this i think that 50 00:01:52,950 --> 00:01:49,759 one of the great strengths of the 51 00:01:54,389 --> 00:01:52,960 institute and of astrobiology in general 52 00:01:56,469 --> 00:01:54,399 are the young researchers that are 53 00:01:58,389 --> 00:01:56,479 attracted into the field and so 54 00:02:00,230 --> 00:01:58,399 graduate students and postdocs i think 55 00:02:02,230 --> 00:02:00,240 are the real strengths of astrobiology 56 00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:02,240 and i would just ask you to apply some 57 00:02:06,069 --> 00:02:03,840 of your energy to this and let's keep 58 00:02:08,389 --> 00:02:06,079 this going to make it a really active 59 00:02:10,949 --> 00:02:08,399 vital seminar series 60 00:02:14,150 --> 00:02:10,959 so i really really appreciate elise and 61 00:02:16,949 --> 00:02:14,160 evgenya volunteering to lead this off so 62 00:02:19,830 --> 00:02:16,959 we will hear uh first from elise furlin 63 00:02:21,510 --> 00:02:19,840 who got her phd at cornell university 64 00:02:23,110 --> 00:02:21,520 we're going to be hearing from her about 65 00:02:25,589 --> 00:02:23,120 first steps of planet formation and 66 00:02:28,869 --> 00:02:25,599 protoplanetary discs and then we'll hear 67 00:02:30,949 --> 00:02:28,879 from agnes shkalnik on the on off nature 68 00:02:34,150 --> 00:02:30,959 of star planet interactions a probe of 69 00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:34,160 magnetized exoplanets and elise take it 70 00:02:37,110 --> 00:02:35,440 away 71 00:02:39,110 --> 00:02:37,120 okay thank you 72 00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:39,120 so uh my talk today is you introduced to 73 00:02:42,229 --> 00:02:40,480 me about the first steps of land 74 00:02:44,070 --> 00:02:42,239 information 75 00:02:45,589 --> 00:02:44,080 and this first slide has a 76 00:02:47,990 --> 00:02:45,599 pretty background it's a spitzer image 77 00:02:51,350 --> 00:02:48,000 of the orion star forming region which 78 00:02:53,670 --> 00:02:51,360 forms massive stars 79 00:02:55,589 --> 00:02:53,680 so here's a brief outline of my talk 80 00:02:58,869 --> 00:02:55,599 i'll first give a brief overview of star 81 00:03:01,589 --> 00:02:58,879 formation this structure this clearing 82 00:03:03,190 --> 00:03:01,599 then i will show you disk evolution at a 83 00:03:06,070 --> 00:03:03,200 really early age of one to two million 84 00:03:08,149 --> 00:03:06,080 years in the total star forming region 85 00:03:09,509 --> 00:03:08,159 grain growth and settling transition 86 00:03:11,430 --> 00:03:09,519 discs 87 00:03:13,910 --> 00:03:11,440 gap formation and then give you my 88 00:03:15,509 --> 00:03:13,920 conclusions 89 00:03:18,149 --> 00:03:15,519 so this is an introduction star 90 00:03:20,869 --> 00:03:18,159 formation what are the main steps so the 91 00:03:23,509 --> 00:03:20,879 earliest stage is the class zero stage 92 00:03:25,750 --> 00:03:23,519 up here where a young star is surrounded 93 00:03:28,229 --> 00:03:25,760 by a massive envelope of dust and gas 94 00:03:29,670 --> 00:03:28,239 that's in falling onto the central 95 00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:29,680 forming star 96 00:03:33,589 --> 00:03:31,680 and if you look at the spectral energy 97 00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:33,599 distribution that's a plot of land of 98 00:03:37,750 --> 00:03:35,920 lambda so flam is a flux density versus 99 00:03:38,949 --> 00:03:37,760 wavelength 100 00:03:40,869 --> 00:03:38,959 it usually peaks at very long 101 00:03:42,309 --> 00:03:40,879 wavelengths by infrareds a millimeter 102 00:03:44,789 --> 00:03:42,319 and it's shorter wavelength you'll 103 00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:44,799 usually see almost nothing or very faint 104 00:03:47,990 --> 00:03:46,319 and like you can see here images taken 105 00:03:50,149 --> 00:03:48,000 from the ground and the optical to the 106 00:03:51,910 --> 00:03:50,159 dark spot because it's so extinct well 107 00:03:54,630 --> 00:03:51,920 if you go to the mid-infrared like iraq 108 00:03:57,509 --> 00:03:54,640 spitzer images iraq and mips there's a 109 00:04:01,110 --> 00:03:59,270 the next stage is the class 1 stage 110 00:04:02,390 --> 00:04:01,120 after this brief class zero stage where 111 00:04:04,710 --> 00:04:02,400 the object is still surrounded by a 112 00:04:07,110 --> 00:04:04,720 large envelope that's falling in 113 00:04:08,949 --> 00:04:07,120 and it starts becoming more visible 114 00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:08,959 detectable with infrared wavelengths and 115 00:04:12,309 --> 00:04:11,360 also near infrared 116 00:04:14,869 --> 00:04:12,319 and 117 00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:14,879 the envelope material falls onto the 118 00:04:18,789 --> 00:04:16,880 central object that's surrounded by a 119 00:04:19,670 --> 00:04:18,799 disk and then secreted by this star in 120 00:04:21,670 --> 00:04:19,680 the middle 121 00:04:23,510 --> 00:04:21,680 and after about a hundred thousand years 122 00:04:26,070 --> 00:04:23,520 this stage is over when we have a class 123 00:04:27,350 --> 00:04:26,080 two object also known as t tori star and 124 00:04:28,469 --> 00:04:27,360 uh there the envelope is mostly 125 00:04:30,629 --> 00:04:28,479 dispersed 126 00:04:32,870 --> 00:04:30,639 and um the object is surrounded by a 127 00:04:35,350 --> 00:04:32,880 protoplanetary a circumstellar disk and 128 00:04:37,350 --> 00:04:35,360 this is the stage where we think planets 129 00:04:38,790 --> 00:04:37,360 form out of this disk that's called the 130 00:04:40,469 --> 00:04:38,800 protoplanetary 131 00:04:42,469 --> 00:04:40,479 disk that's accreting onto the central 132 00:04:45,430 --> 00:04:42,479 star and over time millions of years 133 00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:45,440 this get dissipated as well and then um 134 00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:46,880 we are left over eventually with the 135 00:04:51,590 --> 00:04:49,040 self-tree stage where the object is not 136 00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:51,600 surrounded by any material anymore and 137 00:04:56,870 --> 00:04:54,479 it's sorely contracting and once 138 00:04:59,830 --> 00:04:56,880 not in the core we talk about a messy 139 00:05:03,189 --> 00:05:01,909 so as i mentioned earlier planet form in 140 00:05:05,670 --> 00:05:03,199 this protoplanet this ground may 141 00:05:07,189 --> 00:05:05,680 sequence stars and the two sort of main 142 00:05:09,270 --> 00:05:07,199 i wouldn't miss even conflicting but two 143 00:05:10,390 --> 00:05:09,280 scenarios one is the core accretion here 144 00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:10,400 on the left and one is the 145 00:05:14,070 --> 00:05:11,840 discrimination instabilities on the 146 00:05:15,909 --> 00:05:14,080 right and the core equations is this 147 00:05:18,230 --> 00:05:15,919 typical scenario where you think grains 148 00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:18,240 stick collide grow and form larger 149 00:05:21,670 --> 00:05:19,840 particles the larger particles settle 150 00:05:24,469 --> 00:05:21,680 down to the disk midplane where it's 151 00:05:26,150 --> 00:05:24,479 denser cooler and they start 152 00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:26,160 colliding more and coagulating and 153 00:05:29,990 --> 00:05:28,080 forming larger larger bodies 154 00:05:31,430 --> 00:05:30,000 finally we form these protoplanets they 155 00:05:33,430 --> 00:05:31,440 have a diameter about a thousand 156 00:05:35,510 --> 00:05:33,440 kilometers and once they're big enough 157 00:05:37,430 --> 00:05:35,520 they can start creating gaps and sweep 158 00:05:39,510 --> 00:05:37,440 up the gas 159 00:05:41,830 --> 00:05:39,520 in the surroundings and that's how we 160 00:05:43,590 --> 00:05:41,840 think giant planets form in this core 161 00:05:45,430 --> 00:05:43,600 accretion scenario well this 162 00:05:47,670 --> 00:05:45,440 gravitational abilities 163 00:05:49,990 --> 00:05:47,680 well it requires massive disks usually 164 00:05:52,390 --> 00:05:50,000 about a tenth of the mass of the star so 165 00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:52,400 here you can see it's about 166 00:05:55,670 --> 00:05:54,560 about a tenth of a solar mass for solar 167 00:05:58,230 --> 00:05:55,680 mass star 168 00:06:00,550 --> 00:05:58,240 and when a disk is massive enough we can 169 00:06:02,550 --> 00:06:00,560 have formation of fragments and that can 170 00:06:04,309 --> 00:06:02,560 form giant plants on a very rapid time 171 00:06:06,390 --> 00:06:04,319 scale so about less than a thousand 172 00:06:08,150 --> 00:06:06,400 years maybe a few hundred years 173 00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:08,160 and there's also this relatively new 174 00:06:11,670 --> 00:06:10,080 hybrid scenario where we still have a 175 00:06:13,749 --> 00:06:11,680 massive disk forming gravitational 176 00:06:15,189 --> 00:06:13,759 stabilities but then we can have core 177 00:06:17,029 --> 00:06:15,199 creation going on 178 00:06:19,430 --> 00:06:17,039 by concentrating particles in these 179 00:06:21,029 --> 00:06:19,440 higher density regions so it's a 180 00:06:22,629 --> 00:06:21,039 gravitational stability but at the same 181 00:06:25,990 --> 00:06:22,639 time core creation going on in grain 182 00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:27,590 we talk about protoplanetary disk and 183 00:06:32,230 --> 00:06:29,280 disk structure 184 00:06:35,909 --> 00:06:32,240 um one thing again here is this icd plot 185 00:06:37,350 --> 00:06:35,919 new fnu versus lambda and uh one thing 186 00:06:39,670 --> 00:06:37,360 to keep in mind that later on i show you 187 00:06:41,590 --> 00:06:39,680 mid-infrared spectra in the wavelengths 188 00:06:43,670 --> 00:06:41,600 range from 189 00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:43,680 about uh four to thirty microns or point 190 00:06:47,749 --> 00:06:46,080 one to ten uh samples the inner disk 191 00:06:50,790 --> 00:06:47,759 and what we are sampling in the mid 192 00:06:53,749 --> 00:06:50,800 infrared is just the upper disk layer 193 00:06:55,189 --> 00:06:53,759 here so it's usually just this uh heated 194 00:06:57,830 --> 00:06:55,199 upper layer that's can be seen also here 195 00:07:00,150 --> 00:06:57,840 on the right top side up here um where's 196 00:07:02,550 --> 00:07:00,160 this hot surface layer that's heated by 197 00:07:04,469 --> 00:07:02,560 the star and emits this optically thin 198 00:07:06,469 --> 00:07:04,479 emission that we can see here this is a 199 00:07:08,550 --> 00:07:06,479 silicate emission feature 10 micron and 200 00:07:10,550 --> 00:07:08,560 20 micron and we also sample this kind 201 00:07:12,390 --> 00:07:10,560 of upper layer of the so called mid 202 00:07:13,909 --> 00:07:12,400 plane of the optically thick part so we 203 00:07:15,589 --> 00:07:13,919 just sample sort of the upper layers 204 00:07:17,110 --> 00:07:15,599 here in this 205 00:07:18,629 --> 00:07:17,120 in the middle of red and what i will not 206 00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:18,639 go into this talk like to see down here 207 00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:20,400 says gas structure that would be a 208 00:07:23,830 --> 00:07:22,160 totally different topic or in a way they 209 00:07:26,870 --> 00:07:23,840 are related but here 210 00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:26,880 concentrate on the dust structure 211 00:07:30,950 --> 00:07:28,960 so as far as this evolution goes we know 212 00:07:33,589 --> 00:07:30,960 from observations both from the ground 213 00:07:35,909 --> 00:07:33,599 so jh khaled's ground-based measurements 214 00:07:37,510 --> 00:07:35,919 infrared from about one to three micron 215 00:07:40,950 --> 00:07:37,520 and then this iraq mix that's from the 216 00:07:43,749 --> 00:07:40,960 spitzer space telescope 3 to 8 micron 24 217 00:07:46,550 --> 00:07:43,759 micron that this fraction decreases with 218 00:07:49,029 --> 00:07:46,560 age so at about like 1 million years or 219 00:07:51,110 --> 00:07:49,039 less we have about 80 90 disc fraction 220 00:07:53,270 --> 00:07:51,120 and then it really goes down with age 221 00:07:55,270 --> 00:07:53,280 kind of rapidly 5 million years just a 222 00:07:58,790 --> 00:07:55,280 few maybe 10 20 223 00:08:00,550 --> 00:07:58,800 and then if you go to older and older 224 00:08:03,189 --> 00:08:00,560 systems about 10 million years there's 225 00:08:04,950 --> 00:08:03,199 basically no more disk left so this 226 00:08:06,390 --> 00:08:04,960 survived for about 10 million years is a 227 00:08:09,749 --> 00:08:06,400 kind of a larger dispersion so that's 228 00:08:11,909 --> 00:08:09,759 the time we have to form planets 229 00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:11,919 and when looking at the median sed media 230 00:08:15,110 --> 00:08:13,520 stack for energy distribution such as 231 00:08:17,270 --> 00:08:15,120 taking a start from region that has a 232 00:08:20,150 --> 00:08:17,280 lot of young stars taking the median of 233 00:08:22,629 --> 00:08:20,160 those and uh normalizing them at some 234 00:08:24,309 --> 00:08:22,639 wavelength uh we can see here on this 235 00:08:26,950 --> 00:08:24,319 dash line here one million years old you 236 00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:26,960 have an axis of 8 micron 24 microns and 237 00:08:30,869 --> 00:08:28,560 then when we go over to a region for 238 00:08:33,190 --> 00:08:30,879 example at 4 million years the decrease 239 00:08:35,430 --> 00:08:33,200 is kind of sharp at 8 micron and 240 00:08:37,269 --> 00:08:35,440 at 8 million years the decrease is much 241 00:08:39,269 --> 00:08:37,279 more pronounced at shorter wavelengths 242 00:08:41,029 --> 00:08:39,279 than it's a longer wavelength so that 243 00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:41,039 points towards evolution of the disk 244 00:08:45,430 --> 00:08:43,440 from inside out so whatever happens in 245 00:08:48,150 --> 00:08:45,440 the disk and dissipated 246 00:08:50,150 --> 00:08:48,160 it evolves or the processes are faster 247 00:08:52,550 --> 00:08:50,160 and into this and then eventually to 248 00:08:57,509 --> 00:08:54,790 what causes this this clearing 249 00:08:59,590 --> 00:08:57,519 well one standard there is four main 250 00:09:00,550 --> 00:08:59,600 processes and those are combination of 251 00:09:01,750 --> 00:09:00,560 those so don't say that they're 252 00:09:04,070 --> 00:09:01,760 exclusive but these are the main 253 00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:04,080 processes we have in mind accretion 254 00:09:07,829 --> 00:09:06,160 under the star grain growth and settling 255 00:09:09,829 --> 00:09:07,839 plant formation and photo evaporation i 256 00:09:11,110 --> 00:09:09,839 will briefly talk about those four here 257 00:09:13,590 --> 00:09:11,120 so you have in mind what are the 258 00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:13,600 processes that cause this clearing 259 00:09:17,750 --> 00:09:15,760 and uh accretion well material gets 260 00:09:20,070 --> 00:09:17,760 secreted onto the star on those 261 00:09:21,910 --> 00:09:20,080 magnetospheric accretion columns and 262 00:09:23,750 --> 00:09:21,920 over time it just decreases there's a 263 00:09:25,750 --> 00:09:23,760 large scanner we see like this mass 264 00:09:27,910 --> 00:09:25,760 accretion rate versus age there's a 265 00:09:29,590 --> 00:09:27,920 large scatter at each individual age but 266 00:09:31,430 --> 00:09:29,600 overall in time at least when we go to 267 00:09:32,790 --> 00:09:31,440 10 million years and older it's really 268 00:09:34,389 --> 00:09:32,800 decreased 269 00:09:35,829 --> 00:09:34,399 there's less and less material available 270 00:09:37,990 --> 00:09:35,839 to be 271 00:09:39,509 --> 00:09:38,000 done with brain growth and settling well 272 00:09:41,269 --> 00:09:39,519 like i mentioned earlier too that with 273 00:09:42,870 --> 00:09:41,279 this core equation scenario we think 274 00:09:44,949 --> 00:09:42,880 that rain starts sticking growing 275 00:09:47,750 --> 00:09:44,959 forming larger bodies and then settle 276 00:09:50,630 --> 00:09:47,760 down to the disc midplane and the disc 277 00:09:53,269 --> 00:09:50,640 the the grain growth in this is thought 278 00:09:55,110 --> 00:09:53,279 to be faster in the inner disc and also 279 00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:55,120 faster for larger grains larger grains 280 00:09:59,430 --> 00:09:56,880 of course they're heavier they settle 281 00:10:00,710 --> 00:09:59,440 faster and then um it's also fascinating 282 00:10:02,550 --> 00:10:00,720 this will have higher densities and 283 00:10:04,710 --> 00:10:02,560 higher orbital speed so i think it's 284 00:10:06,070 --> 00:10:04,720 more sticking and growing happening 285 00:10:08,470 --> 00:10:06,080 and what happens here with again this 286 00:10:10,710 --> 00:10:08,480 lcd lambda flanders 287 00:10:12,790 --> 00:10:10,720 versus lambda plot um 288 00:10:15,269 --> 00:10:12,800 with simulations over time starting the 289 00:10:17,190 --> 00:10:15,279 simulation we have this excess 10 micron 290 00:10:19,910 --> 00:10:17,200 and the excess medium thread and then 291 00:10:22,069 --> 00:10:19,920 over time it just decreases and comes 292 00:10:24,389 --> 00:10:22,079 more and lower just because the grain 293 00:10:26,150 --> 00:10:24,399 grows start the grains grow and saddle 294 00:10:28,630 --> 00:10:26,160 and this becomes less and less flared 295 00:10:30,470 --> 00:10:28,640 like in this view here so it is this 296 00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:30,480 less flare and then emits less in the 297 00:10:34,470 --> 00:10:33,120 mid-infrared 298 00:10:36,870 --> 00:10:34,480 and the plan information of this 299 00:10:39,990 --> 00:10:36,880 scenarios correction discrimination's 300 00:10:41,910 --> 00:10:40,000 abilities and once a major larger planet 301 00:10:44,230 --> 00:10:41,920 forms it's just clearing out a gap in 302 00:10:46,949 --> 00:10:44,240 the disk and what happens is that the 303 00:10:49,190 --> 00:10:46,959 disk inside of that gap is being 304 00:10:51,030 --> 00:10:49,200 accreted onto the star so we create an 305 00:10:53,269 --> 00:10:51,040 inner disc hole so if you see a disc 306 00:10:55,750 --> 00:10:53,279 with a large in a disc hole i think well 307 00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:55,760 maybe a planet formed in there and uh 308 00:10:58,550 --> 00:10:57,360 caused there for the inner discs to be 309 00:11:00,710 --> 00:10:58,560 accreted and sort of prevents the 310 00:11:01,990 --> 00:11:00,720 material from outside to come in and get 311 00:11:03,430 --> 00:11:02,000 accredited 312 00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:03,440 at least does that set a particular 313 00:11:08,230 --> 00:11:04,800 scale 314 00:11:09,829 --> 00:11:08,240 yes the snow lines you can't have two 315 00:11:11,350 --> 00:11:09,839 smaller numbers 316 00:11:13,509 --> 00:11:11,360 because if you're going to form plants 317 00:11:16,310 --> 00:11:13,519 quickly they have to at least the disc 318 00:11:18,069 --> 00:11:16,320 has to extend down to a few of you 319 00:11:19,509 --> 00:11:18,079 so if you had a whole lot of half a 320 00:11:22,310 --> 00:11:19,519 negative 321 00:11:23,990 --> 00:11:22,320 that's probably not easily explained by 322 00:11:26,310 --> 00:11:24,000 except for the gravitational stability 323 00:11:29,350 --> 00:11:26,320 for example if the conditions are right 324 00:11:31,990 --> 00:11:30,550 yeah because yeah you need higher 325 00:11:34,470 --> 00:11:32,000 density but yeah 326 00:11:36,870 --> 00:11:34,480 at lower window speeds but it's it's 327 00:11:40,310 --> 00:11:36,880 tumor q parameter it says when a disk is 328 00:11:41,910 --> 00:11:40,320 unstable and yeah yeah 329 00:11:43,190 --> 00:11:41,920 but i knew that prior migration at the 330 00:11:45,430 --> 00:11:43,200 same time so the whole picture's a 331 00:11:46,230 --> 00:11:45,440 little bit muddied by that too 332 00:11:48,069 --> 00:11:46,240 so 333 00:11:50,069 --> 00:11:48,079 it's not as easy to explain usually like 334 00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:50,079 we try to figure out things but they're 335 00:11:54,150 --> 00:11:52,320 obviously complications too 336 00:11:55,990 --> 00:11:54,160 and again i said this cold might be a 337 00:11:57,430 --> 00:11:56,000 planet but any sort of a natural way to 338 00:11:59,430 --> 00:11:57,440 produce an innovative call and that sort 339 00:12:01,110 --> 00:11:59,440 of operation and that's just because a 340 00:12:03,670 --> 00:12:01,120 young star is known to meet uv and 341 00:12:05,269 --> 00:12:03,680 x-rays and they start heating the upper 342 00:12:07,750 --> 00:12:05,279 layer of the disc 343 00:12:10,389 --> 00:12:07,760 and a little biograph down here and 344 00:12:12,069 --> 00:12:10,399 what happens is that the uv photons and 345 00:12:14,470 --> 00:12:12,079 probably extras are mostly uv photons 346 00:12:16,629 --> 00:12:14,480 ionize the gas so the gas is a hot 347 00:12:18,150 --> 00:12:16,639 temperature has a high thermal speed and 348 00:12:20,310 --> 00:12:18,160 if at a certain radius that thermal 349 00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:20,320 speed is higher than the escape velocity 350 00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:22,560 at that distance the gas is blown away 351 00:12:25,829 --> 00:12:24,560 this is evaporative flow let's start at 352 00:12:28,069 --> 00:12:25,839 a certain radius so this is sort of a 353 00:12:30,870 --> 00:12:28,079 simulation with sigma that's the surface 354 00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:30,880 density versus radius and at the start 355 00:12:34,550 --> 00:12:32,480 it's okay it's usually decreasing with 356 00:12:35,350 --> 00:12:34,560 radius and then when the simulation is 357 00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:35,360 run 358 00:12:39,430 --> 00:12:37,600 once this photo evaporation sets in the 359 00:12:41,110 --> 00:12:39,440 disc is cleared out in the inner part 360 00:12:42,790 --> 00:12:41,120 much quicker than the other part because 361 00:12:45,590 --> 00:12:42,800 starting at this radius here current 362 00:12:47,670 --> 00:12:45,600 simulation one eu the 363 00:12:49,269 --> 00:12:47,680 dust and gas is blown away and then the 364 00:12:50,949 --> 00:12:49,279 inner disk accretes and then eventually 365 00:12:53,670 --> 00:12:50,959 the outer disk is very quickly eroded 366 00:12:57,590 --> 00:12:53,680 too so that causes quick disappearance 367 00:13:01,430 --> 00:12:59,670 so what do we observe now 368 00:13:03,750 --> 00:13:01,440 so focus mainly on tauros that's a star 369 00:13:05,829 --> 00:13:03,760 forming region that's about 140 parsecs 370 00:13:08,150 --> 00:13:05,839 away it's nearby about one to two 371 00:13:10,389 --> 00:13:08,160 million years old has no extinction 372 00:13:12,310 --> 00:13:10,399 which is good so we can really see a lot 373 00:13:15,110 --> 00:13:12,320 of the young stars they're not obscured 374 00:13:16,550 --> 00:13:15,120 by dust and it has uh it's more isolated 375 00:13:18,550 --> 00:13:16,560 star formations are not really in a lot 376 00:13:20,550 --> 00:13:18,560 of big clumps and it forms low mass 377 00:13:22,550 --> 00:13:20,560 stars so less than about um two solar 378 00:13:24,150 --> 00:13:22,560 masses and this is just sort of a sample 379 00:13:25,750 --> 00:13:24,160 it's kind of hard to see but you're not 380 00:13:27,430 --> 00:13:25,760 supposed to look at all the detailed 381 00:13:29,829 --> 00:13:27,440 names it's just to show you sample of 382 00:13:31,990 --> 00:13:29,839 irs spectra this is spitzer rs an 383 00:13:35,110 --> 00:13:32,000 instrument that takes spectra from 5 to 384 00:13:37,190 --> 00:13:35,120 36 micron down here after touring stars 385 00:13:39,430 --> 00:13:37,200 we observe tutorial stars in taurus and 386 00:13:41,670 --> 00:13:39,440 it's just a large diversity of spectra 387 00:13:43,829 --> 00:13:41,680 and some of them have this very strong 388 00:13:45,829 --> 00:13:43,839 well 10 micron and 20 micro silicate 389 00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:45,839 emission feature and then overall we can 390 00:13:50,150 --> 00:13:48,240 see how does the scd change from five 391 00:13:52,550 --> 00:13:50,160 micron to the longest wavelength about 392 00:13:53,750 --> 00:13:52,560 40 micron and this is quite a diversity 393 00:13:55,910 --> 00:13:53,760 of objects 394 00:13:57,750 --> 00:13:55,920 which i will explain why 395 00:14:00,069 --> 00:13:57,760 so one thing we started looking into is 396 00:14:01,269 --> 00:14:00,079 dust growth in those disks and like i 397 00:14:02,949 --> 00:14:01,279 mentioned there is a tenant twenty 398 00:14:04,870 --> 00:14:02,959 micron feature they kind of tell us 399 00:14:06,870 --> 00:14:04,880 something about grain growth the sizes 400 00:14:08,710 --> 00:14:06,880 of grains when we have this is just the 401 00:14:11,430 --> 00:14:08,720 model grains or 402 00:14:13,509 --> 00:14:11,440 astronomical silicates and uh when we 403 00:14:16,069 --> 00:14:13,519 look at small sizes point one one micron 404 00:14:19,430 --> 00:14:16,079 we see a nice peak strong peakly shaped 405 00:14:21,829 --> 00:14:19,440 feature at 10 micron and 20 micron but 406 00:14:23,430 --> 00:14:21,839 then when the grains grow like 2.5 for 6 407 00:14:25,110 --> 00:14:23,440 micron you see that this feature gets 408 00:14:27,269 --> 00:14:25,120 sort of washed out they become much less 409 00:14:28,470 --> 00:14:27,279 pronounced and much wider up than a 6 410 00:14:32,230 --> 00:14:28,480 micron 411 00:14:33,990 --> 00:14:32,240 totally washed out we don't see any more 412 00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:34,000 emission feature 413 00:14:39,750 --> 00:14:36,639 and what we did is to fit about 70 414 00:14:42,470 --> 00:14:39,760 tutorial star spectra uh with um 415 00:14:44,949 --> 00:14:42,480 actually opacities derived from the lab 416 00:14:46,790 --> 00:14:44,959 and what we found is that um in the 417 00:14:49,350 --> 00:14:46,800 inner disc which is about a few tenths 418 00:14:51,509 --> 00:14:49,360 of a year relatively warm the typical 419 00:14:53,269 --> 00:14:51,519 mass fraction of large grains is about 420 00:14:55,189 --> 00:14:53,279 fifty percent when we talk about large 421 00:14:57,509 --> 00:14:55,199 grains here it's about five microns so 422 00:14:59,030 --> 00:14:57,519 so about fifty percent um 423 00:15:00,310 --> 00:14:59,040 and here is this number versus 424 00:15:02,389 --> 00:15:00,320 formulated 425 00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:02,399 warm large grain mass fraction but it's 426 00:15:06,470 --> 00:15:05,360 40 50 60 percent well in the outer disk 427 00:15:08,629 --> 00:15:06,480 and that's characterized by cooler 428 00:15:11,350 --> 00:15:08,639 temperatures of fuel the mass fraction 429 00:15:13,350 --> 00:15:11,360 is actually much smaller so about like 430 00:15:14,629 --> 00:15:13,360 most discs have only about a 10 431 00:15:17,189 --> 00:15:14,639 mass fraction of 432 00:15:19,269 --> 00:15:17,199 cold large grains and there are a few 433 00:15:20,470 --> 00:15:19,279 objects that have a 100 434 00:15:22,470 --> 00:15:20,480 of um 435 00:15:25,110 --> 00:15:22,480 cold large grains there so it's a large 436 00:15:26,629 --> 00:15:25,120 variety between systems so 437 00:15:28,470 --> 00:15:26,639 it's not that we can say that it's a 438 00:15:30,389 --> 00:15:28,480 really uh continuous evolution towards 439 00:15:32,230 --> 00:15:30,399 large grains but already indicating in 440 00:15:34,710 --> 00:15:32,240 the inner disc where we think processes 441 00:15:36,550 --> 00:15:34,720 occur faster the grains apparently are 442 00:15:39,750 --> 00:15:36,560 growing can i tell the difference 443 00:15:42,870 --> 00:15:39,760 between refractory grains and 444 00:15:44,870 --> 00:15:42,880 uh yeah because these are all because 445 00:15:46,629 --> 00:15:44,880 isis have also characteristic features 446 00:15:48,389 --> 00:15:46,639 but some grains might have some ice 447 00:15:49,350 --> 00:15:48,399 coating on them yes because that would 448 00:15:51,670 --> 00:15:49,360 be something that would be interesting 449 00:15:54,470 --> 00:15:51,680 to see that there's like five to five a 450 00:15:55,509 --> 00:15:54,480 year you'd expect a big difference 451 00:15:59,350 --> 00:15:55,519 yeah 452 00:16:00,150 --> 00:15:59,360 the same five micron amorphous 453 00:16:02,230 --> 00:16:00,160 uh 454 00:16:03,269 --> 00:16:02,240 five mark five micropores are more per 455 00:16:06,230 --> 00:16:03,279 square 456 00:16:08,150 --> 00:16:06,240 but you can't tell whether those are 457 00:16:10,150 --> 00:16:08,160 hand or do not have knives 458 00:16:11,509 --> 00:16:10,160 no but with this fit we already get good 459 00:16:12,870 --> 00:16:11,519 fits just having that component if 460 00:16:14,790 --> 00:16:12,880 there's an extra ice component maybe it 461 00:16:16,310 --> 00:16:14,800 might improve the fit a little bit but 462 00:16:18,230 --> 00:16:16,320 already with this five micron grain you 463 00:16:19,670 --> 00:16:18,240 can set our larger grains 464 00:16:20,949 --> 00:16:19,680 but you kind of yeah we cannot exclude 465 00:16:23,110 --> 00:16:20,959 there might be some other components in 466 00:16:24,310 --> 00:16:23,120 those fits but i'm supposedly minor 467 00:16:27,110 --> 00:16:24,320 because we really get good fits just 468 00:16:28,790 --> 00:16:27,120 with those five hybrid grains 469 00:16:30,790 --> 00:16:28,800 and again we sample the disk the higher 470 00:16:33,430 --> 00:16:30,800 layers anyway too so the ices are more 471 00:16:35,350 --> 00:16:33,440 in the inner plane 472 00:16:37,350 --> 00:16:35,360 and the next thing we looked at is like 473 00:16:39,110 --> 00:16:37,360 uh dust settling because as mentioned 474 00:16:40,389 --> 00:16:39,120 earlier dust growth is supposedly 475 00:16:42,389 --> 00:16:40,399 accompanied by 476 00:16:45,670 --> 00:16:42,399 settling and these are just a few model 477 00:16:47,829 --> 00:16:45,680 plots that are kind of visible here um 478 00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:47,839 so different models of accretion disks 479 00:16:51,749 --> 00:16:50,000 and uh this epsilon parameter here is 480 00:16:54,629 --> 00:16:51,759 like the purple line is kind of 481 00:16:56,550 --> 00:16:54,639 correlated blue line and yellow line and 482 00:16:59,030 --> 00:16:56,560 red line there's a different settling in 483 00:17:02,550 --> 00:16:59,040 the upper disk layer so for example this 484 00:17:04,230 --> 00:17:02,560 epsilon 0.1 means it's a 10 depletion of 485 00:17:05,669 --> 00:17:04,240 small grains in the upper disk 486 00:17:08,069 --> 00:17:05,679 atmosphere due to 487 00:17:10,309 --> 00:17:08,079 grains growth and settling 488 00:17:13,110 --> 00:17:10,319 and again here this the immediate 489 00:17:16,150 --> 00:17:13,120 axis decreases sharply with saddling 490 00:17:18,069 --> 00:17:16,160 and what we did then is to take all 85 491 00:17:20,870 --> 00:17:18,079 class 2 objects to torrey stars in 492 00:17:22,549 --> 00:17:20,880 taurus and compute the spectral indices 493 00:17:25,429 --> 00:17:22,559 again islam that lambda versus lambda 494 00:17:28,470 --> 00:17:25,439 blood looking at a slope between 6 and 495 00:17:30,070 --> 00:17:28,480 13 micron and then between 13 and 25 496 00:17:31,990 --> 00:17:30,080 micron which is supposedly 497 00:17:33,510 --> 00:17:32,000 characteristic of the continuum of the 498 00:17:35,590 --> 00:17:33,520 optically thick part so not this 499 00:17:37,750 --> 00:17:35,600 optically thin layer but more the 500 00:17:40,150 --> 00:17:37,760 optically thick layer is just underneath 501 00:17:41,029 --> 00:17:40,160 the disc atmosphere 502 00:17:43,029 --> 00:17:41,039 so more 503 00:17:45,669 --> 00:17:43,039 level of how much has the disc settled 504 00:17:46,950 --> 00:17:45,679 so if it's more flat than flare 505 00:17:49,909 --> 00:17:46,960 and this 506 00:17:51,830 --> 00:17:49,919 13 to 25 micron versus the 6 to 13 macro 507 00:17:53,669 --> 00:17:51,840 spectral index are just a slope those 508 00:17:56,390 --> 00:17:53,679 open diamonds are the data points and 509 00:17:57,990 --> 00:17:56,400 those color dots here are the models so 510 00:18:00,310 --> 00:17:58,000 models with different inclination angles 511 00:18:03,669 --> 00:18:00,320 so down here you can see that key is a 512 00:18:06,549 --> 00:18:03,679 different inclination from 75 to 11 513 00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:06,559 degrees and this size of those dots 514 00:18:10,310 --> 00:18:08,640 represent different depletion factors of 515 00:18:11,190 --> 00:18:10,320 dust in the upper layer so the large 516 00:18:14,390 --> 00:18:11,200 dots 517 00:18:16,310 --> 00:18:14,400 is 0.001 is a point one percent 518 00:18:17,830 --> 00:18:16,320 depletion or a factor of a thousand 519 00:18:20,310 --> 00:18:17,840 deviations 520 00:18:21,830 --> 00:18:20,320 so a thousand times less small screens 521 00:18:24,710 --> 00:18:21,840 in the upper layer than 522 00:18:26,150 --> 00:18:24,720 the standard mixture that we assume 523 00:18:27,669 --> 00:18:26,160 and it's not a perfect match but most 524 00:18:29,430 --> 00:18:27,679 data points definitely agree more with 525 00:18:31,430 --> 00:18:29,440 the larger dots and not with the small 526 00:18:33,110 --> 00:18:31,440 ones that are kind of up here so that's 527 00:18:34,950 --> 00:18:33,120 already an indication that in taurus at 528 00:18:37,669 --> 00:18:34,960 one to two million years 529 00:18:39,350 --> 00:18:37,679 we have the saddling of kind of factors 530 00:18:41,669 --> 00:18:39,360 a hundred to a thousand in the upper 531 00:18:43,510 --> 00:18:41,679 layers so indication it is dust settling 532 00:18:46,070 --> 00:18:43,520 going on in those 533 00:18:48,070 --> 00:18:46,080 lists and most likely grain growth and 534 00:18:51,590 --> 00:18:48,080 combining that with the previous result 535 00:18:53,190 --> 00:18:51,600 to then correlate the warmly warm large 536 00:18:55,510 --> 00:18:53,200 grain mass fraction 537 00:18:57,270 --> 00:18:55,520 with this spectral index system from 13 538 00:18:58,710 --> 00:18:57,280 to 31 microns in a longer wavelength 539 00:19:00,549 --> 00:18:58,720 spectral index it's a little bit of a 540 00:19:01,669 --> 00:19:00,559 scatter plot and 541 00:19:03,110 --> 00:19:01,679 if you just compute the correlation 542 00:19:05,990 --> 00:19:03,120 coefficient it's sort of a very very 543 00:19:07,430 --> 00:19:06,000 weak correlation that you have a trend 544 00:19:10,230 --> 00:19:07,440 of greater 545 00:19:12,630 --> 00:19:10,240 warm large grain mass fraction with more 546 00:19:14,310 --> 00:19:12,640 settling or negative spectral index so 547 00:19:15,990 --> 00:19:14,320 it shows this kind of correlated the 548 00:19:18,070 --> 00:19:16,000 dust settling and the dust growth as 549 00:19:20,390 --> 00:19:18,080 expected too but it's already it is one 550 00:19:22,390 --> 00:19:20,400 to two million years but this large 551 00:19:24,230 --> 00:19:22,400 dispersion definitely has to be taken 552 00:19:26,070 --> 00:19:24,240 into account and that definitely shows 553 00:19:27,990 --> 00:19:26,080 that systematically like a continuous 554 00:19:29,590 --> 00:19:28,000 dust processing which just does growth 555 00:19:32,390 --> 00:19:29,600 settling and that's it there might be 556 00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:32,400 some radial mixing some turbulence this 557 00:19:36,390 --> 00:19:34,559 was magneto rotational instabilities 558 00:19:37,990 --> 00:19:36,400 taking place and maybe even planet 559 00:19:40,310 --> 00:19:38,000 forming larger bodies it might totally 560 00:19:41,909 --> 00:19:40,320 sweep up the inner region and then it 561 00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:41,919 gets probably replenished with smaller 562 00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:43,760 brains so there might be a lot of 563 00:19:47,029 --> 00:19:45,360 process going on so they're very dynamic 564 00:19:51,750 --> 00:19:47,039 systems so it's not just a linear 565 00:19:53,510 --> 00:19:51,760 evolution from small mix to large grains 566 00:19:55,830 --> 00:19:53,520 and going back to the index two spectral 567 00:19:58,870 --> 00:19:55,840 index plots so the long wavelength 13 to 568 00:20:01,110 --> 00:19:58,880 25 micron versus that six to 13 micron 569 00:20:02,789 --> 00:20:01,120 index um it's kind of a larger scale 570 00:20:05,029 --> 00:20:02,799 here and there's certain outliers up 571 00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:05,039 there that i would like to point out to 572 00:20:09,029 --> 00:20:07,200 that have a 6 to 13 microns so the 573 00:20:11,190 --> 00:20:09,039 shorter wavelength index roughly 574 00:20:12,310 --> 00:20:11,200 comparable to the bulk of t tourist 575 00:20:15,270 --> 00:20:12,320 stars here 576 00:20:17,270 --> 00:20:15,280 but they're 13 to 25 micron index so the 577 00:20:19,350 --> 00:20:17,280 longer wavelength side is much steeper 578 00:20:21,029 --> 00:20:19,360 so they have this kind of steep rise and 579 00:20:23,190 --> 00:20:21,039 hope you can see that too that between 580 00:20:26,549 --> 00:20:23,200 so basically around 13 to 25 micron 581 00:20:28,070 --> 00:20:26,559 longer wavelength this is deep rise 582 00:20:30,390 --> 00:20:28,080 and what we call these objects are 583 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:30,400 transition disks that have cleared out 584 00:20:34,310 --> 00:20:32,880 inner disks so in this plot 585 00:20:36,549 --> 00:20:34,320 this dash land represents the 586 00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:36,559 photosphere and then those curves here 587 00:20:40,630 --> 00:20:38,080 are the different uh 588 00:20:42,710 --> 00:20:40,640 rest spectra and especially kokuta four 589 00:20:45,750 --> 00:20:42,720 dm tau have basically photospheric 590 00:20:47,510 --> 00:20:45,760 emission at the shortest wavelength and 591 00:20:50,149 --> 00:20:47,520 then they really take off at the longer 592 00:20:51,830 --> 00:20:50,159 wavelength which shows us most likely 593 00:20:53,110 --> 00:20:51,840 that we have an inner disc hole and 594 00:20:55,190 --> 00:20:53,120 there's still an outer disc that's 595 00:20:56,789 --> 00:20:55,200 remaining and some kind of individual 596 00:20:58,870 --> 00:20:56,799 differences yes you can already see jim 597 00:21:00,630 --> 00:20:58,880 ryje has some kind of axis above the 598 00:21:02,470 --> 00:21:00,640 photosphere the shortest wavelength so 599 00:21:05,590 --> 00:21:02,480 it has some material most likely in a 600 00:21:07,430 --> 00:21:05,600 disk while kokuta iv and dientau de fly 601 00:21:09,669 --> 00:21:07,440 almost perfectly on the photosphere so 602 00:21:11,510 --> 00:21:09,679 it's really cleared out in our disk 603 00:21:13,270 --> 00:21:11,520 and one of them is a creating like dm 604 00:21:14,310 --> 00:21:13,280 one isn't so there's some differences 605 00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:14,320 there too 606 00:21:20,149 --> 00:21:17,280 point out later so this is a schematic 607 00:21:22,149 --> 00:21:20,159 here um that means the science center of 608 00:21:24,070 --> 00:21:22,159 how we interpret again these transition 609 00:21:26,070 --> 00:21:24,080 disks so when we have a star with no 610 00:21:28,230 --> 00:21:26,080 disk in a logarithmic plot brightness 611 00:21:30,390 --> 00:21:28,240 versus wavelength or no if no versus 612 00:21:32,310 --> 00:21:30,400 wavelength sort of a straight line rally 613 00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:32,320 jeans tail then when we have a star with 614 00:21:37,029 --> 00:21:34,880 a full disc it has this emission the 615 00:21:39,430 --> 00:21:37,039 macro emission tiny macro emission and 616 00:21:41,669 --> 00:21:39,440 just a lot of access in the infrared 617 00:21:43,350 --> 00:21:41,679 while if you have these transition discs 618 00:21:44,390 --> 00:21:43,360 uh they have this photospheric emission 619 00:21:46,230 --> 00:21:44,400 shorter wavelength just because there's 620 00:21:49,190 --> 00:21:46,240 no material there's a hole in there and 621 00:21:51,190 --> 00:21:49,200 then access it along its wavelengths 622 00:21:54,149 --> 00:21:51,200 and what we did is compute models for 623 00:21:55,590 --> 00:21:54,159 these objects who could afford gmri dm 624 00:21:57,590 --> 00:21:55,600 time but now there are a couple others 625 00:21:59,430 --> 00:21:57,600 that have been modeled in detail 626 00:22:01,029 --> 00:21:59,440 and there's some differences like uh 627 00:22:03,510 --> 00:22:01,039 goku therefore doesn't have a creation 628 00:22:05,830 --> 00:22:03,520 going on when dm tau and gmrij they do 629 00:22:08,470 --> 00:22:05,840 have gas accretion onto the star so even 630 00:22:11,350 --> 00:22:08,480 though dm tao like you see up here 631 00:22:13,990 --> 00:22:11,360 has photospheric emissions apparently no 632 00:22:16,310 --> 00:22:14,000 dust grains in the inner disc 633 00:22:18,390 --> 00:22:16,320 there is likely some gas still streaming 634 00:22:20,870 --> 00:22:18,400 in and accreting onto the star 635 00:22:22,789 --> 00:22:20,880 and kuguta 4 has a negligible outer disk 636 00:22:25,510 --> 00:22:22,799 so probably it's just a very tiny ring 637 00:22:27,510 --> 00:22:25,520 of material but both dmta and gmri they 638 00:22:29,750 --> 00:22:27,520 do have other disks 639 00:22:31,669 --> 00:22:29,760 certainly give us clues about what 640 00:22:33,590 --> 00:22:31,679 caused these inner disc holes what is 641 00:22:36,070 --> 00:22:33,600 happening in those disks 642 00:22:37,909 --> 00:22:36,080 and it is a little flow chart 643 00:22:41,350 --> 00:22:37,919 oopsies on top there well 644 00:22:43,190 --> 00:22:41,360 this little flowchart to um 645 00:22:45,110 --> 00:22:43,200 show what can we 646 00:22:46,789 --> 00:22:45,120 what clues can be used to interpret 647 00:22:48,870 --> 00:22:46,799 those transition disks 648 00:22:50,870 --> 00:22:48,880 and one thing is if we see a smaller 649 00:22:51,830 --> 00:22:50,880 infrared access and a wider 10 micron 650 00:22:53,190 --> 00:22:51,840 feature 651 00:22:55,510 --> 00:22:53,200 then that's definitely for sure 652 00:22:57,430 --> 00:22:55,520 indication for grain growth and settling 653 00:22:59,590 --> 00:22:57,440 and models and both observations they 654 00:23:01,190 --> 00:22:59,600 tell us that happens in a time scale of 655 00:23:03,190 --> 00:23:01,200 less than a million years so that's 656 00:23:04,870 --> 00:23:03,200 expected and we observe that and that's 657 00:23:07,350 --> 00:23:04,880 a definite cool 658 00:23:10,630 --> 00:23:07,360 then if we see it in this gap with 659 00:23:12,149 --> 00:23:10,640 depletion of dust and gas in your disk 660 00:23:13,669 --> 00:23:12,159 if at the same time we have a ram and 661 00:23:16,070 --> 00:23:13,679 outer disk 662 00:23:18,149 --> 00:23:16,080 then we can form planets and just down 663 00:23:20,070 --> 00:23:18,159 to this castle a lot of gas left over we 664 00:23:22,710 --> 00:23:20,080 can form a gas giant if there's not much 665 00:23:24,789 --> 00:23:22,720 gas then just from terrestrial planets 666 00:23:27,430 --> 00:23:24,799 and um if you think about core accretion 667 00:23:28,950 --> 00:23:27,440 it probably takes 10 20 30 million years 668 00:23:30,230 --> 00:23:28,960 but as long as there's an outer disk 669 00:23:32,470 --> 00:23:30,240 there 670 00:23:34,230 --> 00:23:32,480 we have hope for plant formation but 671 00:23:35,909 --> 00:23:34,240 it's just a vanishing outer disk so very 672 00:23:38,630 --> 00:23:35,919 little like in coconut kokuto worst case 673 00:23:40,549 --> 00:23:38,640 we have almost no outer disk left over 674 00:23:42,630 --> 00:23:40,559 if there's still mass equation left over 675 00:23:44,470 --> 00:23:42,640 so we have accretion from in the inner 676 00:23:47,510 --> 00:23:44,480 this cold probably gas 677 00:23:49,510 --> 00:23:47,520 um we could still have planets for me 678 00:23:50,870 --> 00:23:49,520 but yeah so there's some material out 679 00:23:53,029 --> 00:23:50,880 there that 680 00:23:54,230 --> 00:23:53,039 come from planets but most likely maybe 681 00:23:56,149 --> 00:23:54,240 only terrestrial because it's not that 682 00:23:57,350 --> 00:23:56,159 much material out there but if at the 683 00:23:59,909 --> 00:23:57,360 same time we have very low mass 684 00:24:01,830 --> 00:23:59,919 secretion then one interpretation is 685 00:24:04,310 --> 00:24:01,840 photo evaporation so these are not 686 00:24:06,470 --> 00:24:04,320 really exclusive formation scenarios 687 00:24:08,390 --> 00:24:06,480 it's just so more or less what to keep 688 00:24:10,070 --> 00:24:08,400 in mind that photo evaporation really 689 00:24:12,070 --> 00:24:10,080 requires you to have a 690 00:24:13,669 --> 00:24:12,080 very small outer disk and also very low 691 00:24:15,110 --> 00:24:13,679 mass secretion just so that the disk can 692 00:24:17,510 --> 00:24:15,120 be blown away otherwise if you have mass 693 00:24:19,830 --> 00:24:17,520 accretion then the photo evaporated flow 694 00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:19,840 will have an influence on the disk 695 00:24:23,590 --> 00:24:21,360 and finally no matter what you see in 696 00:24:24,230 --> 00:24:23,600 terms of the micro feature or in terms 697 00:24:25,750 --> 00:24:24,240 of 698 00:24:28,950 --> 00:24:25,760 um 699 00:24:30,710 --> 00:24:28,960 in terms of uh depletion of thinner disk 700 00:24:32,549 --> 00:24:30,720 uh the if you have a massive outer disc 701 00:24:35,909 --> 00:24:32,559 then we come from planets 702 00:24:37,269 --> 00:24:35,919 by gravitational stabilities 703 00:24:39,110 --> 00:24:37,279 and yeah in the last few minutes of my 704 00:24:42,070 --> 00:24:39,120 talk i will show you some very new 705 00:24:44,070 --> 00:24:42,080 results on the um also again to identify 706 00:24:46,230 --> 00:24:44,080 the disc evolution in protoplanetary 707 00:24:47,669 --> 00:24:46,240 disk and one is to look at the degree of 708 00:24:51,350 --> 00:24:47,679 dust settling so again the spectral 709 00:24:53,110 --> 00:24:51,360 index between 13 and 31 micron and the 710 00:24:54,870 --> 00:24:53,120 equivalent width of the 10 micron 711 00:24:57,510 --> 00:24:54,880 feature up here so that's basically the 712 00:24:59,669 --> 00:24:57,520 spectral index on the y-axis and on the 713 00:25:01,830 --> 00:24:59,679 x-axis is the strength of this 10 micron 714 00:25:03,669 --> 00:25:01,840 feature here and just in this box just 715 00:25:06,230 --> 00:25:03,679 results from models where is a certain 716 00:25:07,909 --> 00:25:06,240 spread in one direction due to up here 717 00:25:09,750 --> 00:25:07,919 we find more flare discs down here we 718 00:25:12,310 --> 00:25:09,760 find more cell disk and this other 719 00:25:14,310 --> 00:25:12,320 spread is due to different stellar 720 00:25:16,310 --> 00:25:14,320 parameters like or this parameter 721 00:25:18,950 --> 00:25:16,320 creation inclination angle 722 00:25:20,310 --> 00:25:18,960 and what we did is then to look at what 723 00:25:22,310 --> 00:25:20,320 you have just one to two million years 724 00:25:24,070 --> 00:25:22,320 like a fukus taurus comedian of and of 725 00:25:25,830 --> 00:25:24,080 you who's off core the slightly 726 00:25:27,430 --> 00:25:25,840 different ages and just to have again 727 00:25:29,029 --> 00:25:27,440 this plot of this factory next versus 728 00:25:30,789 --> 00:25:29,039 equivalent with 729 00:25:32,630 --> 00:25:30,799 and where for example taurus we have a 730 00:25:35,110 --> 00:25:32,640 lot of objects in this box which is 731 00:25:36,470 --> 00:25:35,120 expected for full protoplanetary disks 732 00:25:38,789 --> 00:25:36,480 there are some outliers on the right 733 00:25:40,549 --> 00:25:38,799 hand side chameleon there even more and 734 00:25:42,789 --> 00:25:40,559 if you use off core even though you have 735 00:25:44,230 --> 00:25:42,799 like very small number statistics a lot 736 00:25:47,110 --> 00:25:44,240 of objects 737 00:25:49,510 --> 00:25:47,120 out here and um what what are these 738 00:25:52,230 --> 00:25:49,520 objects they have spectral indices 13 to 739 00:25:54,549 --> 00:25:52,240 20 31 micron that are roughly the same 740 00:25:56,310 --> 00:25:54,559 as typical full accretion disks but they 741 00:25:57,830 --> 00:25:56,320 have this micro feature that is really 742 00:25:59,269 --> 00:25:57,840 really strong 743 00:26:01,350 --> 00:25:59,279 and when we interpret that i did this 744 00:26:03,430 --> 00:26:01,360 little sketch this is sort of a disc 745 00:26:05,110 --> 00:26:03,440 around the star and if we have a full 746 00:26:07,350 --> 00:26:05,120 disc so never mind it's kind of ringing 747 00:26:09,029 --> 00:26:07,360 here it's for example like this digital 748 00:26:11,110 --> 00:26:09,039 where we just have the micro feature and 749 00:26:13,990 --> 00:26:11,120 a certain slope of the icd 750 00:26:15,750 --> 00:26:14,000 well if we start forming a gap with some 751 00:26:18,470 --> 00:26:15,760 optically thin material 752 00:26:21,110 --> 00:26:18,480 then the macro feature is expected to be 753 00:26:22,549 --> 00:26:21,120 stronger than just a normal full disc 754 00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:22,559 just because we have this extra optical 755 00:26:27,269 --> 00:26:24,720 symmetry that emits especially a tan and 756 00:26:28,950 --> 00:26:27,279 then a 20 micron so that's how we start 757 00:26:30,950 --> 00:26:28,960 interpreting these 758 00:26:35,430 --> 00:26:30,960 outliers in those diagrams there might 759 00:26:39,909 --> 00:26:37,830 so so i'll probably give you quickly my 760 00:26:41,430 --> 00:26:39,919 conclusions so first of all we know that 761 00:26:43,590 --> 00:26:41,440 this dissipation is about 10 million 762 00:26:45,830 --> 00:26:43,600 years it goes from the inside out 763 00:26:48,230 --> 00:26:45,840 relatively fast grain growth and 764 00:26:50,230 --> 00:26:48,240 settling is observed at 765 00:26:51,750 --> 00:26:50,240 about 1 million years old in at an age 766 00:26:53,669 --> 00:26:51,760 of 1 million years in a tourist 767 00:26:55,190 --> 00:26:53,679 suffering region transition days seem to 768 00:26:57,269 --> 00:26:55,200 be very interesting to understand all 769 00:26:58,549 --> 00:26:57,279 this process of disk clearing from grain 770 00:27:00,710 --> 00:26:58,559 growth photo evaporation planet 771 00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:00,720 formation and these last clouds i showed 772 00:27:04,149 --> 00:27:02,080 you with the medium fret spectral index 773 00:27:05,430 --> 00:27:04,159 versus the equivalent width of the micro 774 00:27:07,269 --> 00:27:05,440 features of the strength of the micro 775 00:27:09,430 --> 00:27:07,279 feature might indicate the opening of 776 00:27:11,750 --> 00:27:09,440 gaps in some of those objects 777 00:27:13,029 --> 00:27:11,760 and at this age of one million years 778 00:27:15,110 --> 00:27:13,039 when we're talking about first steps of 779 00:27:16,549 --> 00:27:15,120 planet formation well when we see grain 780 00:27:19,110 --> 00:27:16,559 growth and settling that could really be 781 00:27:20,549 --> 00:27:19,120 the early steps of core accretion again 782 00:27:21,909 --> 00:27:20,559 it might not be a linear process but at 783 00:27:23,269 --> 00:27:21,919 least we start having those larger 784 00:27:25,750 --> 00:27:23,279 grains that are required for the 785 00:27:28,230 --> 00:27:25,760 coercion process and if we see in our 786 00:27:30,070 --> 00:27:28,240 gaps and holes like we fully cleared out 787 00:27:32,310 --> 00:27:30,080 regions it might really point that 788 00:27:33,990 --> 00:27:32,320 planets formed already by gravitational 789 00:27:39,269 --> 00:27:34,000 instabilities 790 00:27:43,350 --> 00:27:41,269 thank you elise and we just have a few 791 00:27:45,669 --> 00:27:43,360 minutes for questions i'd like to ask 792 00:27:48,470 --> 00:27:45,679 everyone to raise your hand in webex if 793 00:27:52,870 --> 00:27:48,480 you have a question so we can uh make it 794 00:27:54,149 --> 00:27:52,880 go smoothly and uh let's see 795 00:27:56,789 --> 00:27:54,159 yeah i think were there some questions 796 00:27:59,510 --> 00:27:57,750 and 797 00:28:01,990 --> 00:27:59,520 any questions i'll just open it up to 798 00:28:04,310 --> 00:28:02,000 the floor at least can we can we do it 799 00:28:08,470 --> 00:28:04,320 verbally from here 800 00:28:13,669 --> 00:28:11,269 at least can you tell us why um you have 801 00:28:16,549 --> 00:28:13,679 there are some stars with 802 00:28:18,549 --> 00:28:16,559 rapid rates of gas secretion that 803 00:28:20,470 --> 00:28:18,559 seem to have very little dust associated 804 00:28:22,070 --> 00:28:20,480 with the gas and other stars with 805 00:28:24,149 --> 00:28:22,080 comparable amounts of gas secretion 806 00:28:26,389 --> 00:28:24,159 where there seems to be 807 00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:26,399 lots of dust the full complement of warm 808 00:28:31,110 --> 00:28:29,120 dust why why is there this seemingly 809 00:28:33,830 --> 00:28:31,120 dramatic difference between rapidly 810 00:28:35,510 --> 00:28:33,840 feeding stars with and without dust 811 00:28:37,029 --> 00:28:35,520 could be a fact of grain growth because 812 00:28:39,750 --> 00:28:37,039 once the grains are really large they 813 00:28:43,430 --> 00:28:39,760 sort of decoupled from the gas 814 00:28:47,430 --> 00:28:45,990 so that anymore be one thing 815 00:28:48,870 --> 00:28:47,440 but um 816 00:28:50,710 --> 00:28:48,880 yeah usually with the foot of vibration 817 00:28:52,549 --> 00:28:50,720 for example that when grades are really 818 00:28:55,430 --> 00:28:52,559 small they get blown out with the gas at 819 00:28:57,110 --> 00:28:55,440 the same time but once um the grains 820 00:28:59,669 --> 00:28:57,120 have grown then it just affects the gas 821 00:29:01,110 --> 00:28:59,679 and the dust remains behind 822 00:29:02,950 --> 00:29:01,120 so yeah 823 00:29:04,549 --> 00:29:02,960 then also the story about binaries and 824 00:29:07,110 --> 00:29:04,559 so on who knows that that might be 825 00:29:12,310 --> 00:29:07,120 applied thanks to 826 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:19,350 any other questions from many sites 827 00:29:23,350 --> 00:29:21,590 thank you elise and i'm going to turn 828 00:29:26,149 --> 00:29:23,360 the floor back over to carl who will 829 00:29:28,389 --> 00:29:26,159 introduce our next presenter okay i also 830 00:29:30,549 --> 00:29:28,399 realized i did a bad job of introducing 831 00:29:32,070 --> 00:29:30,559 the presenter who just spoke i didn't 832 00:29:34,310 --> 00:29:32,080 mention where she was from and she was 833 00:29:36,149 --> 00:29:34,320 speaking to us from ucla of course as a 834 00:29:38,149 --> 00:29:36,159 member of the ucla team 835 00:29:39,990 --> 00:29:38,159 and our next speaker is of daniel 836 00:29:42,389 --> 00:29:40,000 shkolnik who is speaking to us from the 837 00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:42,399 moon room at the university of hawaii i 838 00:29:46,870 --> 00:29:44,559 remember that room well 839 00:29:48,389 --> 00:29:46,880 and as i mentioned she's going to be 840 00:29:50,230 --> 00:29:48,399 talking to us 841 00:29:52,149 --> 00:29:50,240 about the on off nature of star planet 842 00:29:58,149 --> 00:29:52,159 interactions a probe of magnetized 843 00:29:58,159 --> 00:30:09,430 i think your mic is muted 844 00:30:19,029 --> 00:30:12,630 you may be muted on your end can you 845 00:30:23,350 --> 00:30:20,630 hello i didn't touch it since you and i 846 00:30:25,269 --> 00:30:23,360 last spoke we hear you now so it worked 847 00:30:28,070 --> 00:30:25,279 itself out 848 00:30:29,909 --> 00:30:28,080 mocking technology go ahead thanks 849 00:30:31,510 --> 00:30:29,919 i'm amazed that this is actually working 850 00:30:33,190 --> 00:30:31,520 for all of us sitting here they're 851 00:30:34,710 --> 00:30:33,200 talking so 852 00:30:36,870 --> 00:30:34,720 i'm sitting here on a pile of rabbits 853 00:30:40,149 --> 00:30:36,880 feet and all sorts of you know poorly 854 00:30:41,669 --> 00:30:40,159 clovers with my fingers crossed 855 00:30:43,110 --> 00:30:41,679 um all right well thank you so much for 856 00:30:44,870 --> 00:30:43,120 the invitation i'm going to talk about 857 00:30:46,549 --> 00:30:44,880 work that i've been doing with my 858 00:30:49,029 --> 00:30:46,559 collaborators gordon walker david 859 00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:49,039 bollander fingal gu and martin kerster 860 00:30:54,230 --> 00:30:51,360 for the last five years or so 861 00:30:57,430 --> 00:30:54,240 and we'll be talking about the later 862 00:30:58,950 --> 00:30:57,440 stages of kind of the end stage of what 863 00:31:01,269 --> 00:30:58,960 elise was talking about the actual 864 00:31:03,190 --> 00:31:01,279 planets i'll talk about the planets that 865 00:31:05,029 --> 00:31:03,200 have been detected and what kind of 866 00:31:07,909 --> 00:31:05,039 follow-up research we can be done that 867 00:31:10,549 --> 00:31:07,919 can be done with them 868 00:31:13,190 --> 00:31:10,559 so in brief for those of you who don't 869 00:31:14,710 --> 00:31:13,200 follow you know the news the emails that 870 00:31:16,830 --> 00:31:14,720 we get every week or so about the new 871 00:31:19,510 --> 00:31:16,840 planets that are discovered now there's 872 00:31:22,230 --> 00:31:19,520 217 planets as of last night i didn't 873 00:31:24,789 --> 00:31:22,240 check this morning um but this is a 874 00:31:26,549 --> 00:31:24,799 simple plot of them where on the y-axis 875 00:31:28,549 --> 00:31:26,559 it's just the names of the stars so 876 00:31:31,029 --> 00:31:28,559 there's so many they're hard to read and 877 00:31:32,789 --> 00:31:31,039 on the x-axis is the orbital um 878 00:31:34,070 --> 00:31:32,799 semi-major axis 879 00:31:35,990 --> 00:31:34,080 and so the stars that i'm going to be 880 00:31:37,350 --> 00:31:36,000 talking about are called hot jupiters 881 00:31:39,750 --> 00:31:37,360 and it's these in 882 00:31:40,950 --> 00:31:39,760 inward inside planets that orbit very 883 00:31:43,750 --> 00:31:40,960 tightly 884 00:31:45,990 --> 00:31:43,760 here's a zoomed in shot of them 885 00:31:48,230 --> 00:31:46,000 and so their general characteristics are 886 00:31:50,070 --> 00:31:48,240 that they're about a jupiter mass 887 00:31:51,990 --> 00:31:50,080 and that their distance from the star is 888 00:31:53,909 --> 00:31:52,000 less than 0.1 a u where an a u is the 889 00:31:56,070 --> 00:31:53,919 distance between the star between the 890 00:31:58,389 --> 00:31:56,080 sun and the earth and their orbital 891 00:31:59,909 --> 00:31:58,399 periods are very short less than 10 days 892 00:32:01,509 --> 00:31:59,919 and the stars in particular that i'll be 893 00:32:03,830 --> 00:32:01,519 talking about are actually less than 894 00:32:06,230 --> 00:32:03,840 seven days orbital periods so people 895 00:32:08,549 --> 00:32:06,240 have called them roasters close and 896 00:32:10,630 --> 00:32:08,559 giant planets hot jupiters all kind of 897 00:32:12,389 --> 00:32:10,640 be tossing those around 898 00:32:13,190 --> 00:32:12,399 um but needless to say they're very very 899 00:32:15,669 --> 00:32:13,200 hot 900 00:32:17,909 --> 00:32:15,679 and uh also our only real options for 901 00:32:21,029 --> 00:32:17,919 doing a lot of follow-up science for on 902 00:32:23,350 --> 00:32:21,039 extrasolar planets right now 903 00:32:24,630 --> 00:32:23,360 and here's just an image to scale just 904 00:32:27,350 --> 00:32:24,640 to give you an idea of how different 905 00:32:29,509 --> 00:32:27,360 this is from jupiter and the sun 906 00:32:31,590 --> 00:32:29,519 this is hd179949 907 00:32:34,070 --> 00:32:31,600 a star that i'll be spending most of my 908 00:32:36,230 --> 00:32:34,080 time talking about and it has a massive 909 00:32:38,310 --> 00:32:36,240 planet at about one jupiter mass 910 00:32:41,669 --> 00:32:38,320 orbiting at three days and a distance of 911 00:32:43,350 --> 00:32:41,679 0.05 a yu now put that in context 912 00:32:46,070 --> 00:32:43,360 relative to the star that's only seven 913 00:32:47,830 --> 00:32:46,080 stellar radii away it's very very close 914 00:32:51,990 --> 00:32:47,840 and compare that with jupiter which is 915 00:32:57,669 --> 00:32:53,750 and so current observations of hot 916 00:32:59,590 --> 00:32:57,679 jupiters are really amazing and i think 917 00:33:01,190 --> 00:32:59,600 it's fascinating what we can learn about 918 00:33:03,190 --> 00:33:01,200 hot jupiters 919 00:33:04,070 --> 00:33:03,200 in the last five years 920 00:33:05,430 --> 00:33:04,080 um 921 00:33:07,830 --> 00:33:05,440 so for instance i'll just run through 922 00:33:09,750 --> 00:33:07,840 these quickly in a transiting system 923 00:33:12,149 --> 00:33:09,760 where the planet is actually eclipsing 924 00:33:14,549 --> 00:33:12,159 the star as in this cartoon or this uh 925 00:33:16,149 --> 00:33:14,559 artistic impression here you can see the 926 00:33:17,990 --> 00:33:16,159 absorption through the planet's 927 00:33:21,029 --> 00:33:18,000 atmosphere and so this has been detected 928 00:33:22,789 --> 00:33:21,039 the sodium lyman alpha this hydrogen 929 00:33:24,870 --> 00:33:22,799 oxygen and carbon absorption has been 930 00:33:25,710 --> 00:33:24,880 detected in the atmosphere of the planet 931 00:33:27,830 --> 00:33:25,720 around 932 00:33:29,509 --> 00:33:27,840 hd209458 but you've probably heard 933 00:33:30,549 --> 00:33:29,519 something about 934 00:33:32,470 --> 00:33:30,559 and so there's you know that 935 00:33:35,430 --> 00:33:32,480 interpretations about huge mass loss and 936 00:33:38,549 --> 00:33:35,440 runaway evaporation because we detect so 937 00:33:40,710 --> 00:33:38,559 much more of this than we would expect 938 00:33:41,990 --> 00:33:40,720 given the size of the atmosphere of the 939 00:33:43,669 --> 00:33:42,000 planet 940 00:33:45,669 --> 00:33:43,679 another interesting thing is the thermal 941 00:33:47,269 --> 00:33:45,679 emission that has been studied on 942 00:33:48,789 --> 00:33:47,279 several planets 943 00:33:50,630 --> 00:33:48,799 using the spitzer space telescope and 944 00:33:54,230 --> 00:33:50,640 this is actually measuring temperatures 945 00:33:55,990 --> 00:33:54,240 on the day night side of the planets 946 00:33:58,950 --> 00:33:56,000 and getting a weather really a kind of a 947 00:34:00,870 --> 00:33:58,960 weather map of these hot jupiters 948 00:34:01,830 --> 00:34:00,880 a very recent detection by tinnetti 949 00:34:03,909 --> 00:34:01,840 adele 950 00:34:05,269 --> 00:34:03,919 has actually shown also with spitzer 951 00:34:06,990 --> 00:34:05,279 that there's water in the atmosphere 952 00:34:10,629 --> 00:34:07,000 around the planet 953 00:34:12,470 --> 00:34:10,639 hd189733 also a transiting planet 954 00:34:14,869 --> 00:34:12,480 so one thing about these three 955 00:34:16,710 --> 00:34:14,879 top ones is that all of these are done 956 00:34:19,270 --> 00:34:16,720 with space telescopes i mean you really 957 00:34:21,190 --> 00:34:19,280 need the high sensitivity you need the 958 00:34:22,470 --> 00:34:21,200 top of the end instruments to be doing 959 00:34:24,550 --> 00:34:22,480 all that 960 00:34:26,069 --> 00:34:24,560 and for most of them the work has to be 961 00:34:27,669 --> 00:34:26,079 done with a transiting planet which is 962 00:34:28,790 --> 00:34:27,679 not always the case there's only about 963 00:34:31,030 --> 00:34:28,800 20 964 00:34:33,990 --> 00:34:31,040 27 actually transiting planets right now 965 00:34:35,190 --> 00:34:34,000 known out of the 217 966 00:34:36,790 --> 00:34:35,200 what i'm going to be talking about is 967 00:34:37,990 --> 00:34:36,800 star planet interactions and this is 968 00:34:40,950 --> 00:34:38,000 something that 969 00:34:42,310 --> 00:34:40,960 we've been doing from the ground using 970 00:34:43,349 --> 00:34:42,320 excellent instruments and 971 00:34:45,190 --> 00:34:43,359 top-of-the-line instruments but 972 00:34:48,629 --> 00:34:45,200 ground-based instruments 973 00:34:52,389 --> 00:34:50,389 and so the take-home message i'll give 974 00:34:54,869 --> 00:34:52,399 you right now about star planet 975 00:34:56,550 --> 00:34:54,879 interactions is that we've detected them 976 00:34:58,390 --> 00:34:56,560 we've detected an actual magnetic 977 00:35:01,430 --> 00:34:58,400 interaction between a close and giant 978 00:35:03,990 --> 00:35:01,440 planet and its star and that is our 979 00:35:05,750 --> 00:35:04,000 first indirect evidence of planetary 980 00:35:06,950 --> 00:35:05,760 magnetic fields outside of our solar 981 00:35:08,390 --> 00:35:06,960 system 982 00:35:10,790 --> 00:35:08,400 we've been monitoring for long enough 983 00:35:11,750 --> 00:35:10,800 for five years um where we can actually 984 00:35:13,510 --> 00:35:11,760 see 985 00:35:15,750 --> 00:35:13,520 it happen and then disappear and then 986 00:35:19,430 --> 00:35:15,760 happen again so i call this the on off 987 00:35:20,470 --> 00:35:19,440 nature of spy star planet it's it's uh 988 00:35:21,670 --> 00:35:20,480 it's going to be all the rage star 989 00:35:23,510 --> 00:35:21,680 planet interaction so that's what i'm 990 00:35:25,190 --> 00:35:23,520 going to be calling it spy 991 00:35:27,190 --> 00:35:25,200 due to stellar magnetic fields and 992 00:35:29,910 --> 00:35:27,200 lastly what we want to be doing with 993 00:35:31,670 --> 00:35:29,920 this is detecting the magnetic fields is 994 00:35:33,270 --> 00:35:31,680 one thing but also figuring out how we 995 00:35:34,870 --> 00:35:33,280 can measure the magnetic field itself 996 00:35:36,550 --> 00:35:34,880 because right now we don't know we can't 997 00:35:38,550 --> 00:35:36,560 tell you if it's the same as jupiter 998 00:35:40,390 --> 00:35:38,560 which is 4.3 gauss or the same as the 999 00:35:42,550 --> 00:35:40,400 earth's magnetic field we just don't 1000 00:35:45,430 --> 00:35:42,560 know but we want to develop a potential 1001 00:35:46,870 --> 00:35:45,440 probe of these 1002 00:35:48,310 --> 00:35:46,880 so naturally what are the 1003 00:35:49,910 --> 00:35:48,320 astrobiological implications for 1004 00:35:51,510 --> 00:35:49,920 magnetic fields well 1005 00:35:53,510 --> 00:35:51,520 for those of you who do any do the 1006 00:35:55,109 --> 00:35:53,520 planetary science in our solar system 1007 00:35:58,310 --> 00:35:55,119 understand very well probably better 1008 00:35:59,670 --> 00:35:58,320 than i do about what magnetic fields do 1009 00:36:01,430 --> 00:35:59,680 especially for the earth and how they 1010 00:36:02,870 --> 00:36:01,440 protect our atmosphere so 1011 00:36:04,390 --> 00:36:02,880 from 1012 00:36:06,150 --> 00:36:04,400 detecting and understanding magnetic 1013 00:36:08,150 --> 00:36:06,160 fields on extrasolar planets we can then 1014 00:36:09,589 --> 00:36:08,160 get magnetic field geometries for 1015 00:36:11,430 --> 00:36:09,599 instance 1016 00:36:13,030 --> 00:36:11,440 the planetary structure we have definite 1017 00:36:15,750 --> 00:36:13,040 implications for the internal structure 1018 00:36:17,589 --> 00:36:15,760 of the planet itself 1019 00:36:18,870 --> 00:36:17,599 we also can set constraints on the 1020 00:36:22,630 --> 00:36:18,880 environment for the planetary 1021 00:36:24,790 --> 00:36:22,640 atmospheres because as you know the um 1022 00:36:28,150 --> 00:36:24,800 the magnetic field of the earth protects 1023 00:36:30,550 --> 00:36:28,160 us from high-energy cosmic radiation um 1024 00:36:32,150 --> 00:36:30,560 high-energy particles from the sun 1025 00:36:34,069 --> 00:36:32,160 and we need that in order for our 1026 00:36:36,390 --> 00:36:34,079 atmosphere to exist 1027 00:36:38,710 --> 00:36:36,400 also mass loss if there were no 1028 00:36:40,790 --> 00:36:38,720 magnetic field we would have some sort 1029 00:36:43,589 --> 00:36:40,800 of streaming or photo evaporation of our 1030 00:36:45,270 --> 00:36:43,599 atmosphere and there's a an issue of 1031 00:36:46,630 --> 00:36:45,280 orbital decay especially for these hot 1032 00:36:48,710 --> 00:36:46,640 jupiters 1033 00:36:50,870 --> 00:36:48,720 because as i'll show you 1034 00:36:52,550 --> 00:36:50,880 the energy that is lost is has to come 1035 00:36:54,550 --> 00:36:52,560 from somewhere and it's 1036 00:36:57,030 --> 00:36:54,560 modeled to come from the orbital energy 1037 00:36:59,190 --> 00:36:57,040 between the of the planet so there's 1038 00:37:00,790 --> 00:36:59,200 some implications for orbital decay and 1039 00:37:04,950 --> 00:37:00,800 possibly migration and that sort of 1040 00:37:08,950 --> 00:37:07,750 my next slide is not going 1041 00:37:11,190 --> 00:37:08,960 there we go 1042 00:37:13,510 --> 00:37:11,200 so this um we didn't come up with this 1043 00:37:15,670 --> 00:37:13,520 idea in a vacuum it was actually first 1044 00:37:18,710 --> 00:37:15,680 published by manfred kunst and steve 1045 00:37:21,750 --> 00:37:18,720 starr and musialic in 2000 just in time 1046 00:37:23,349 --> 00:37:21,760 for me when i was looking for graduates 1047 00:37:25,109 --> 00:37:23,359 theses tourcon 1048 00:37:27,510 --> 00:37:25,119 and so it worked well 1049 00:37:30,069 --> 00:37:27,520 and so they published this idea of 1050 00:37:32,390 --> 00:37:30,079 maybe the start the hot jupiters have a 1051 00:37:34,390 --> 00:37:32,400 tidal perhaps or a magnetic interaction 1052 00:37:36,150 --> 00:37:34,400 with a star that would induce some sort 1053 00:37:37,990 --> 00:37:36,160 of observable heating of the outer 1054 00:37:39,430 --> 00:37:38,000 atmosphere of the star 1055 00:37:41,670 --> 00:37:39,440 all right so if it was a tidal 1056 00:37:42,710 --> 00:37:41,680 interaction then you would expect 1057 00:37:44,550 --> 00:37:42,720 that the 1058 00:37:45,750 --> 00:37:44,560 period of the interaction 1059 00:37:47,990 --> 00:37:45,760 is 1060 00:37:49,750 --> 00:37:48,000 half that of the orbital period 1061 00:37:52,069 --> 00:37:49,760 so you'd see whatever effect happened 1062 00:37:53,430 --> 00:37:52,079 twice as the planet goes around the star 1063 00:37:55,670 --> 00:37:53,440 and this effect drops off as the 1064 00:37:57,750 --> 00:37:55,680 semi-major axis to the one-third to the 1065 00:37:59,829 --> 00:37:57,760 minus three 1066 00:38:01,910 --> 00:37:59,839 um and if it was a magnetic interaction 1067 00:38:04,790 --> 00:38:01,920 you would just see it once you'd see it 1068 00:38:06,230 --> 00:38:04,800 as a planet orbits around the star and 1069 00:38:07,670 --> 00:38:06,240 so would have the same the interaction 1070 00:38:09,270 --> 00:38:07,680 period would be the same as the orbital 1071 00:38:11,190 --> 00:38:09,280 period and again it drops as one over 1072 00:38:12,950 --> 00:38:11,200 eight to the minus two which is why of 1073 00:38:14,790 --> 00:38:12,960 course hot jupiters are our best bet is 1074 00:38:18,950 --> 00:38:14,800 detecting the sort of thing because it 1075 00:38:20,790 --> 00:38:18,960 drops off quickly with semi-major axis 1076 00:38:22,470 --> 00:38:20,800 and you would have the concentration of 1077 00:38:25,430 --> 00:38:22,480 the heating at what i call what's called 1078 00:38:28,550 --> 00:38:25,440 the subplanetary point and that is the 1079 00:38:30,310 --> 00:38:28,560 phase where the planet um and the star 1080 00:38:31,349 --> 00:38:30,320 are aligned with the observer with us on 1081 00:38:33,270 --> 00:38:31,359 earth 1082 00:38:34,630 --> 00:38:33,280 so if it was transiting it would be at 1083 00:38:36,630 --> 00:38:34,640 the point of transit if it's not 1084 00:38:37,589 --> 00:38:36,640 transiting it would still it would just 1085 00:38:39,109 --> 00:38:37,599 be 1086 00:38:41,430 --> 00:38:39,119 you know as if they were lined up and 1087 00:38:43,829 --> 00:38:41,440 here's an image an actual reconstruction 1088 00:38:45,910 --> 00:38:43,839 of a binary star system that exhibits 1089 00:38:47,829 --> 00:38:45,920 this exact same behavior and of course 1090 00:38:49,349 --> 00:38:47,839 it's enhanced because we have two stars 1091 00:38:51,190 --> 00:38:49,359 with two strong magnetic fields 1092 00:38:54,390 --> 00:38:51,200 interacting but it is an observable 1093 00:38:56,710 --> 00:38:54,400 effect this is an example of er vol 1094 00:38:58,310 --> 00:38:56,720 and you can see that hot spot as it 1095 00:39:00,230 --> 00:38:58,320 rotates in and out of view so the 1096 00:39:06,310 --> 00:39:00,240 hotspot is always there the question is 1097 00:39:10,230 --> 00:39:07,750 and so 1098 00:39:12,150 --> 00:39:10,240 when you think about an interaction from 1099 00:39:13,990 --> 00:39:12,160 the x outside so it's not the star 1100 00:39:16,069 --> 00:39:14,000 itself producing it something external 1101 00:39:18,870 --> 00:39:16,079 to it you would expect the interaction 1102 00:39:21,589 --> 00:39:18,880 to be greater in the corona which is 1103 00:39:24,150 --> 00:39:21,599 closer in proximity to the planet itself 1104 00:39:25,510 --> 00:39:24,160 and in the outer layers which um 1105 00:39:26,870 --> 00:39:25,520 which 1106 00:39:28,390 --> 00:39:26,880 you may not have known but there is a 1107 00:39:30,470 --> 00:39:28,400 temperature inversion that happens above 1108 00:39:32,470 --> 00:39:30,480 the photosphere so the sun's photosphere 1109 00:39:34,230 --> 00:39:32,480 let's say it's about 6000 kelvin and it 1110 00:39:36,069 --> 00:39:34,240 actually becomes hotter as you move 1111 00:39:37,589 --> 00:39:36,079 further further up in the atmosphere the 1112 00:39:39,349 --> 00:39:37,599 chromosphere is about 10 000 and the 1113 00:39:41,430 --> 00:39:39,359 corona is quite hot and several million 1114 00:39:43,589 --> 00:39:41,440 degrees now ideally we would love to 1115 00:39:45,430 --> 00:39:43,599 look at this um 1116 00:39:46,390 --> 00:39:45,440 look at this effect in the corona but 1117 00:39:48,150 --> 00:39:46,400 you need 1118 00:39:49,510 --> 00:39:48,160 space telescope time which is very hard 1119 00:39:51,670 --> 00:39:49,520 to get um 1120 00:39:53,270 --> 00:39:51,680 and um especially for the duration the 1121 00:39:56,550 --> 00:39:53,280 kind of monitoring programs that we want 1122 00:39:58,950 --> 00:39:56,560 to do it's hard to do um from space 1123 00:40:00,790 --> 00:39:58,960 so we devised a program that we can do 1124 00:40:04,470 --> 00:40:00,800 look at chromospheric activity 1125 00:40:08,069 --> 00:40:06,150 and so here's an example here's the sun 1126 00:40:10,470 --> 00:40:08,079 and broadband this is the full visible 1127 00:40:13,030 --> 00:40:10,480 spectrum of yeah well the visible 1128 00:40:15,030 --> 00:40:13,040 spectrum and you can see how if you look 1129 00:40:17,030 --> 00:40:15,040 now in calcium 2 1130 00:40:20,790 --> 00:40:17,040 you're now looking into the chromosphere 1131 00:40:23,270 --> 00:40:20,800 further up calcium 2 is ionized calcium 1132 00:40:24,950 --> 00:40:23,280 that is emitted at 1133 00:40:27,670 --> 00:40:24,960 at about 10 000 kelvin so a little 1134 00:40:29,030 --> 00:40:27,680 higher up and you can see the hot spots 1135 00:40:30,069 --> 00:40:29,040 it's a little brighter where there's 1136 00:40:32,710 --> 00:40:30,079 activity where there's strong 1137 00:40:34,550 --> 00:40:32,720 concentrations of magnetic activity and 1138 00:40:35,990 --> 00:40:34,560 we sort of call them magnetic storms but 1139 00:40:37,670 --> 00:40:36,000 you you know you get the idea that 1140 00:40:39,109 --> 00:40:37,680 there's just more activity going on 1141 00:40:40,630 --> 00:40:39,119 which means there's more emission in the 1142 00:40:43,270 --> 00:40:40,640 calcium too and that is going to be our 1143 00:40:45,349 --> 00:40:43,280 primary indicator of stellar activity 1144 00:40:49,910 --> 00:40:45,359 looking for this excess heating 1145 00:40:53,670 --> 00:40:52,310 and where do we do this well mostly um 1146 00:40:56,630 --> 00:40:53,680 most of the work i'm going to be showing 1147 00:40:59,589 --> 00:40:56,640 you is was done at the 3.6 meter canada 1148 00:41:00,630 --> 00:40:59,599 france hawaii telescope here in hawaii 1149 00:41:03,349 --> 00:41:00,640 um 1150 00:41:04,950 --> 00:41:03,359 it is a collaboration by those three 1151 00:41:06,870 --> 00:41:04,960 agencies 1152 00:41:09,670 --> 00:41:06,880 and worked out quite well 1153 00:41:11,190 --> 00:41:09,680 for me because being canadian we got we 1154 00:41:12,230 --> 00:41:11,200 have 42 percent of the time there so i 1155 00:41:14,390 --> 00:41:12,240 could do my 1156 00:41:16,150 --> 00:41:14,400 do get a lot of research 1157 00:41:18,309 --> 00:41:16,160 done there and so for those of you who 1158 00:41:20,069 --> 00:41:18,319 have never been there it's about 1159 00:41:21,190 --> 00:41:20,079 five stories high you can see the little 1160 00:41:23,430 --> 00:41:21,200 people 1161 00:41:24,550 --> 00:41:23,440 up front so it's quite a big structure 1162 00:41:26,230 --> 00:41:24,560 and if you're ever in hawaii i 1163 00:41:27,589 --> 00:41:26,240 definitely recommend visiting mauna kea 1164 00:41:30,710 --> 00:41:27,599 and checking out all the infrastructure 1165 00:41:32,390 --> 00:41:30,720 that astronomy has afforded us 1166 00:41:34,710 --> 00:41:32,400 but what it has there aside from the 1167 00:41:35,829 --> 00:41:34,720 telescope itself is an instrument 1168 00:41:38,470 --> 00:41:35,839 that collects 1169 00:41:42,309 --> 00:41:38,480 the complete optical spectrum 1170 00:41:44,390 --> 00:41:42,319 of a star and this is a epo version of a 1171 00:41:45,910 --> 00:41:44,400 stellar spectrum 1172 00:41:49,349 --> 00:41:45,920 this just happens to be of the sun but 1173 00:41:51,589 --> 00:41:49,359 each of those lines are absorption lines 1174 00:41:53,510 --> 00:41:51,599 in this in the atmosphere of the sun 1175 00:41:55,990 --> 00:41:53,520 and so if you cut across one of those 1176 00:41:57,190 --> 00:41:56,000 lines you get the spectrum 1177 00:42:01,349 --> 00:41:57,200 that we're interested in this is a 1178 00:42:03,510 --> 00:42:01,359 spectrum of a star called hd189733 1179 00:42:04,870 --> 00:42:03,520 and even though all these lines that i 1180 00:42:06,790 --> 00:42:04,880 point out here are very interesting 1181 00:42:08,150 --> 00:42:06,800 chromospheric lines they actually probe 1182 00:42:10,470 --> 00:42:08,160 various heights in the stellar 1183 00:42:13,349 --> 00:42:10,480 atmosphere i'm going to only focus on 1184 00:42:18,309 --> 00:42:13,359 for simplicity the calcium 2k line it's 1185 00:42:21,190 --> 00:42:19,510 angstroms 1186 00:42:23,589 --> 00:42:21,200 and so you can see how in this little 1187 00:42:25,349 --> 00:42:23,599 red box the strong peak shows that this 1188 00:42:26,390 --> 00:42:25,359 particular star has a lot of magnetic 1189 00:42:28,790 --> 00:42:26,400 activity 1190 00:42:30,950 --> 00:42:28,800 and has a lot of energy being emitted in 1191 00:42:33,190 --> 00:42:30,960 just this line and i'm going to zoom in 1192 00:42:34,870 --> 00:42:33,200 on this box for another star that you'll 1193 00:42:36,390 --> 00:42:34,880 see does not have the same this is a 1194 00:42:37,670 --> 00:42:36,400 much weaker 1195 00:42:39,190 --> 00:42:37,680 um 1196 00:42:40,230 --> 00:42:39,200 this star has a much weaker magnetic 1197 00:42:43,190 --> 00:42:40,240 field 1198 00:42:45,190 --> 00:42:43,200 in general but still it has some calcium 1199 00:42:47,190 --> 00:42:45,200 two emission and you can see this is 1200 00:42:49,030 --> 00:42:47,200 over this is a plot that's overlay 1201 00:42:50,870 --> 00:42:49,040 overlaying nine different knights of the 1202 00:42:52,630 --> 00:42:50,880 same star you can see in these other 1203 00:42:54,710 --> 00:42:52,640 photospheric absorption lines that 1204 00:42:56,950 --> 00:42:54,720 there's no activity whereas right in the 1205 00:42:58,550 --> 00:42:56,960 chromosphere you see there's some wobble 1206 00:42:59,829 --> 00:42:58,560 it's kind of hard to see i'll show you a 1207 00:43:01,670 --> 00:42:59,839 better plot 1208 00:43:02,950 --> 00:43:01,680 next but what i want to emphasize is 1209 00:43:05,910 --> 00:43:02,960 that we're looking at something very 1210 00:43:08,150 --> 00:43:05,920 small but clearly detectable okay so 1211 00:43:10,069 --> 00:43:08,160 there's actually increased energy being 1212 00:43:12,069 --> 00:43:10,079 emitted in calcium two in the 1213 00:43:14,309 --> 00:43:12,079 chromosphere of the star and it varies 1214 00:43:16,630 --> 00:43:14,319 from night to night 1215 00:43:19,910 --> 00:43:16,640 um here's more spectra of the same star 1216 00:43:22,150 --> 00:43:19,920 taken in different times the first um 1217 00:43:24,870 --> 00:43:22,160 i guess the left hand side is taken from 1218 00:43:27,589 --> 00:43:24,880 september 2005 where the top is just the 1219 00:43:29,829 --> 00:43:27,599 overlaying chromospheric 1220 00:43:32,550 --> 00:43:29,839 emission the calcium two absorption 1221 00:43:34,870 --> 00:43:32,560 and the second panel is show you the 1222 00:43:37,190 --> 00:43:34,880 residuals so it's just taking the 1223 00:43:39,349 --> 00:43:37,200 difference from the mean 1224 00:43:41,270 --> 00:43:39,359 and the bottom is what we call the mad 1225 00:43:43,349 --> 00:43:41,280 plot the mean absolute deviation it's 1226 00:43:45,670 --> 00:43:43,359 just a kind of form of saying 1227 00:43:47,430 --> 00:43:45,680 how much activity is really going on in 1228 00:43:50,309 --> 00:43:47,440 this star so you'll see that in if you 1229 00:43:53,430 --> 00:43:50,319 compare september 2005 to the right 1230 00:43:56,390 --> 00:43:53,440 panel 2006 there's a lot more activity 1231 00:43:58,309 --> 00:43:56,400 going on in 2005 than in 2006 however in 1232 00:43:59,990 --> 00:43:58,319 2006 there's still a significant amount 1233 00:44:01,990 --> 00:44:00,000 it's small but there's still significant 1234 00:44:04,309 --> 00:44:02,000 amount of variation variability going on 1235 00:44:05,670 --> 00:44:04,319 from night to night and um and when i 1236 00:44:07,430 --> 00:44:05,680 say from night to night we usually 1237 00:44:09,430 --> 00:44:07,440 typically observe for about five or six 1238 00:44:11,270 --> 00:44:09,440 nights 1239 00:44:14,069 --> 00:44:11,280 hopefully at least three or four will be 1240 00:44:15,990 --> 00:44:14,079 clear and 1241 00:44:17,589 --> 00:44:16,000 and so it's just really from you know 1242 00:44:20,870 --> 00:44:17,599 monday to tuesday to wednesday there's a 1243 00:44:22,710 --> 00:44:20,880 real measurable change 1244 00:44:24,630 --> 00:44:22,720 and if you measure the integrated flux 1245 00:44:26,710 --> 00:44:24,640 of these residuals 1246 00:44:29,670 --> 00:44:26,720 um you get this kind of plot where the 1247 00:44:31,190 --> 00:44:29,680 y-axis is just the amount of energy the 1248 00:44:33,109 --> 00:44:31,200 residual energy 1249 00:44:35,109 --> 00:44:33,119 um in the calcium 2 1250 00:44:37,109 --> 00:44:35,119 emission and the x-axis is the 1251 00:44:38,870 --> 00:44:37,119 rotational phase and remember that phase 1252 00:44:42,150 --> 00:44:38,880 equals zero is the subplanetary point 1253 00:44:43,910 --> 00:44:42,160 where the planet is um in front 1254 00:44:46,390 --> 00:44:43,920 with it where the planet is in front of 1255 00:44:48,230 --> 00:44:46,400 the star relative to us 1256 00:44:50,069 --> 00:44:48,240 so what you see here is that 1257 00:44:52,710 --> 00:44:50,079 over three different observing runs we 1258 00:44:54,790 --> 00:44:52,720 see a very nice correlation with a spot 1259 00:44:56,870 --> 00:44:54,800 model the black line is a spot model as 1260 00:44:58,950 --> 00:44:56,880 if there was a spot on the actual star 1261 00:45:00,470 --> 00:44:58,960 that comes into view and then out of 1262 00:45:04,069 --> 00:45:00,480 view and then interview as the planet 1263 00:45:08,710 --> 00:45:06,790 and what's what was a surprise was that 1264 00:45:09,670 --> 00:45:08,720 that the peak of it doesn't actually 1265 00:45:14,150 --> 00:45:09,680 happen 1266 00:45:16,870 --> 00:45:14,160 bit sooner there's actually a phase lead 1267 00:45:19,270 --> 00:45:16,880 and that leads us to wonder what's going 1268 00:45:20,710 --> 00:45:19,280 on what kind of magnetic structure must 1269 00:45:21,910 --> 00:45:20,720 there be in order for there to be a 1270 00:45:23,750 --> 00:45:21,920 phase lead 1271 00:45:25,829 --> 00:45:23,760 you might intuitively guess well it must 1272 00:45:28,230 --> 00:45:25,839 be a maybe there should be a phase lag 1273 00:45:29,990 --> 00:45:28,240 some sort of time delay but really it's 1274 00:45:31,030 --> 00:45:30,000 a phase lead so this is giving us some 1275 00:45:32,390 --> 00:45:31,040 other 1276 00:45:34,230 --> 00:45:32,400 indication 1277 00:45:36,790 --> 00:45:34,240 what's happening so here's my little 1278 00:45:38,630 --> 00:45:36,800 cartoon of the star in chromospheric 1279 00:45:41,109 --> 00:45:38,640 light emitted and there's the planet and 1280 00:45:42,470 --> 00:45:41,119 so you can see how 1281 00:45:45,190 --> 00:45:42,480 oh 1282 00:45:48,870 --> 00:45:46,950 you can see how the stars 1283 00:45:50,550 --> 00:45:48,880 how the star spots track the planet in 1284 00:45:52,390 --> 00:45:50,560 its orbit not with the rotation of the 1285 00:45:55,030 --> 00:45:52,400 star the rotation of the star is much 1286 00:45:56,630 --> 00:45:55,040 longer um at this point before we knew 1287 00:45:58,630 --> 00:45:56,640 the rotation i'll get to that in a 1288 00:46:00,230 --> 00:45:58,640 minute but all indirect evidence showed 1289 00:46:02,390 --> 00:46:00,240 that the rotation of the star was longer 1290 00:46:04,230 --> 00:46:02,400 than nine days and there wasn't a way to 1291 00:46:06,150 --> 00:46:04,240 phase these plots with more than with 1292 00:46:07,990 --> 00:46:06,160 within well enough with a nine day 1293 00:46:10,069 --> 00:46:08,000 period so it's not just 1294 00:46:14,150 --> 00:46:10,079 that the rotation of the star is moving 1295 00:46:17,829 --> 00:46:16,390 now if you measure the energy output of 1296 00:46:20,630 --> 00:46:17,839 this kind of 1297 00:46:23,190 --> 00:46:20,640 uh of the spot it's about 10 to the 27 1298 00:46:25,510 --> 00:46:23,200 ergs per second which happens to be very 1299 00:46:27,510 --> 00:46:25,520 close to the typical solar flare energy 1300 00:46:31,430 --> 00:46:27,520 so we're talking about some some sort of 1301 00:46:33,430 --> 00:46:31,440 magnetic activity on the star 1302 00:46:35,510 --> 00:46:33,440 and um 1303 00:46:37,030 --> 00:46:35,520 given that we've come back several years 1304 00:46:40,069 --> 00:46:37,040 the fact that it's lasted for several 1305 00:46:42,550 --> 00:46:40,079 years is amazing because a normal star 1306 00:46:44,390 --> 00:46:42,560 spot really only lasts for one or two 1307 00:46:45,750 --> 00:46:44,400 solar or stellar rotations so that's 1308 00:46:47,910 --> 00:46:45,760 just a few months 1309 00:46:50,790 --> 00:46:47,920 um it also appears to be magnetic 1310 00:46:53,030 --> 00:46:50,800 because there's one hump in the plot not 1311 00:46:54,710 --> 00:46:53,040 two if it was tidal you might see some 1312 00:46:55,910 --> 00:46:54,720 sort of activity happening twice per 1313 00:46:57,910 --> 00:46:55,920 orbit 1314 00:46:59,829 --> 00:46:57,920 and the fact that there's a phase lead 1315 00:47:01,750 --> 00:46:59,839 indicate some sort of magnetic um 1316 00:47:03,670 --> 00:47:01,760 geometry like a parker spiral for 1317 00:47:04,870 --> 00:47:03,680 instance where you where the 1318 00:47:06,550 --> 00:47:04,880 for instance on the sun there's some 1319 00:47:09,030 --> 00:47:06,560 magnetic field lines that are spiraled 1320 00:47:11,030 --> 00:47:09,040 with its rotation and so you would have 1321 00:47:12,950 --> 00:47:11,040 you have some sort of energy being 1322 00:47:15,670 --> 00:47:12,960 dumped ahead of where the planet 1323 00:47:17,510 --> 00:47:15,680 actually is relative to us 1324 00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:17,520 now since we first published that work 1325 00:47:22,630 --> 00:47:20,640 in 2003 and 2005 1326 00:47:24,950 --> 00:47:22,640 there has been other evidence of star 1327 00:47:27,829 --> 00:47:24,960 planet interactions um here's just a few 1328 00:47:29,589 --> 00:47:27,839 of them most as a space telescope 1329 00:47:31,750 --> 00:47:29,599 that does very high precision photometry 1330 00:47:34,309 --> 00:47:31,760 of stars with hot jupiters and they've 1331 00:47:36,470 --> 00:47:34,319 seen photo photospheric spots on the 1332 00:47:38,150 --> 00:47:36,480 star that vary with the planets orbit 1333 00:47:41,349 --> 00:47:38,160 and not with a stellar rotation which is 1334 00:47:45,190 --> 00:47:41,359 what traditionally we would expect um 1335 00:47:47,829 --> 00:47:45,200 saradal had also used um an x-ray 1336 00:47:49,270 --> 00:47:47,839 telescope chandra to look for phased 1337 00:47:50,950 --> 00:47:49,280 x-ray emission 1338 00:47:53,430 --> 00:47:50,960 and so they have claimed that they see 1339 00:47:56,069 --> 00:47:53,440 that and that the phasing works with 1340 00:47:58,309 --> 00:47:56,079 hours without calcium two emission 1341 00:48:00,390 --> 00:47:58,319 um and lastly was this um this cache 1342 00:48:02,390 --> 00:48:00,400 japanese work 1343 00:48:03,510 --> 00:48:02,400 did a statistical study of x-ray 1344 00:48:04,470 --> 00:48:03,520 emission 1345 00:48:06,550 --> 00:48:04,480 of 1346 00:48:08,390 --> 00:48:06,560 stars with hot jupiters and stars with 1347 00:48:10,870 --> 00:48:08,400 planets that are further out and what 1348 00:48:13,430 --> 00:48:10,880 they show is that there's a three 1349 00:48:15,829 --> 00:48:13,440 there's that statistically at least 1350 00:48:17,270 --> 00:48:15,839 three times as much x-ray emission from 1351 00:48:21,270 --> 00:48:17,280 stars 1352 00:48:23,430 --> 00:48:21,280 that don't so this also indicates that 1353 00:48:26,230 --> 00:48:23,440 there must be some sort of 1354 00:48:32,069 --> 00:48:26,240 increased stellar activity going on 1355 00:48:36,870 --> 00:48:33,990 so what's really going on i mean the 1356 00:48:39,190 --> 00:48:36,880 models are there's been about i'd say 1357 00:48:40,790 --> 00:48:39,200 almost a dozen papers trying to explain 1358 00:48:42,390 --> 00:48:40,800 this theoretically 1359 00:48:43,750 --> 00:48:42,400 and there seems to be some convergence 1360 00:48:46,870 --> 00:48:43,760 going on but still we definitely need 1361 00:48:48,950 --> 00:48:46,880 more data to give the modelers um 1362 00:48:51,349 --> 00:48:48,960 something to keep working with but i'll 1363 00:48:54,309 --> 00:48:51,359 just go through two of the earlier ones 1364 00:48:56,150 --> 00:48:54,319 one was by ipodal where they 1365 00:48:57,349 --> 00:48:56,160 modeled this magnetic reconnection type 1366 00:48:59,829 --> 00:48:57,359 of event 1367 00:49:01,589 --> 00:48:59,839 using the jupiter io 1368 00:49:04,230 --> 00:49:01,599 taurus model where there's these 1369 00:49:07,990 --> 00:49:04,240 footprints on jupiter that's induced by 1370 00:49:09,910 --> 00:49:08,000 io's motion around around jupiter 1371 00:49:11,430 --> 00:49:09,920 and it develops this current loop and so 1372 00:49:13,589 --> 00:49:11,440 on and so you get these hot spots in 1373 00:49:15,670 --> 00:49:13,599 high and low latitudes and so it but 1374 00:49:17,990 --> 00:49:15,680 i'll measure 1375 00:49:20,309 --> 00:49:18,000 model it this way and they theoretically 1376 00:49:22,150 --> 00:49:20,319 get the same 10 to the 27 ergs per 1377 00:49:25,510 --> 00:49:22,160 second that we got observationally so 1378 00:49:29,589 --> 00:49:27,910 and then sabine prusadel for her phd 1379 00:49:31,670 --> 00:49:29,599 thesis started working on this 1380 00:49:33,910 --> 00:49:31,680 communication scenario 1381 00:49:36,710 --> 00:49:33,920 and i'll try and work through that step 1382 00:49:39,589 --> 00:49:36,720 by step so if this were a star rotating 1383 00:49:41,270 --> 00:49:39,599 here is a spiraled magnetic 1384 00:49:43,270 --> 00:49:41,280 field line and there's the planet if 1385 00:49:45,430 --> 00:49:43,280 this were the solar system such that the 1386 00:49:47,910 --> 00:49:45,440 distance between the planet and the star 1387 00:49:50,790 --> 00:49:47,920 was now about 5 a.u 1388 00:49:52,390 --> 00:49:50,800 the stellar wind at 5 a.u 1389 00:49:54,230 --> 00:49:52,400 is much 1390 00:49:55,910 --> 00:49:54,240 faster than the alphein wave velocity 1391 00:49:57,349 --> 00:49:55,920 which means that any kind of 1392 00:49:59,190 --> 00:49:57,359 information you can consider or 1393 00:50:01,190 --> 00:49:59,200 disturbance of the magnetic field at 1394 00:50:03,829 --> 00:50:01,200 that distance would be carried away by 1395 00:50:06,390 --> 00:50:03,839 the stellar wind as opposed to if it was 1396 00:50:08,309 --> 00:50:06,400 in a hot jupiter system the and now the 1397 00:50:11,030 --> 00:50:08,319 distance between the star and the planet 1398 00:50:13,109 --> 00:50:11,040 this distance here is now .05 a u 1399 00:50:15,750 --> 00:50:13,119 instead of five au you are within the 1400 00:50:18,630 --> 00:50:15,760 alphein radius which is defined as a 1401 00:50:20,150 --> 00:50:18,640 location in space where the velocity of 1402 00:50:22,710 --> 00:50:20,160 the stellar wind and the velocity of the 1403 00:50:25,510 --> 00:50:22,720 alphane waves are equal now if you are 1404 00:50:26,390 --> 00:50:25,520 within this alpha and radius then 1405 00:50:28,710 --> 00:50:26,400 you can 1406 00:50:30,710 --> 00:50:28,720 actually transmit information back onto 1407 00:50:33,109 --> 00:50:30,720 the star energy back onto the star along 1408 00:50:34,950 --> 00:50:33,119 magnetic field lines and the sto and the 1409 00:50:37,030 --> 00:50:34,960 stellar wind is just too slow to take it 1410 00:50:40,390 --> 00:50:37,040 away and she calls this the magnetic 1411 00:50:42,630 --> 00:50:40,400 communication scenario 1412 00:50:44,710 --> 00:50:42,640 she's also able to interestingly enough 1413 00:50:47,190 --> 00:50:44,720 reproduce the 1414 00:50:49,910 --> 00:50:47,200 phase difference that we observe so the 1415 00:50:51,510 --> 00:50:49,920 phase being that the maximum activity 1416 00:50:54,630 --> 00:50:51,520 happens at 1417 00:50:57,990 --> 00:50:54,640 at uh 0.83 in phase so it leads the 1418 00:50:59,910 --> 00:50:58,000 planet by 0 by about 60 degrees 1419 00:51:03,109 --> 00:50:59,920 and she does this by using this weber 1420 00:51:04,950 --> 00:51:03,119 davis stellar wind model where 1421 00:51:07,270 --> 00:51:04,960 now this phase 1422 00:51:08,309 --> 00:51:07,280 the phase offset let's say from the 1423 00:51:10,870 --> 00:51:08,319 phase equals zero which is the 1424 00:51:12,710 --> 00:51:10,880 subplanetary point um is a function of 1425 00:51:14,710 --> 00:51:12,720 the stellar rotation speed as you would 1426 00:51:16,710 --> 00:51:14,720 expect and also the orbital semi-major 1427 00:51:19,190 --> 00:51:16,720 axis so once you are outside of a 1428 00:51:21,109 --> 00:51:19,200 certain region outside the alpha radius 1429 00:51:23,829 --> 00:51:21,119 you cannot get the information or the 1430 00:51:26,150 --> 00:51:23,839 energy back onto the star and but if you 1431 00:51:28,069 --> 00:51:26,160 are within it then the further you are 1432 00:51:32,150 --> 00:51:28,079 away the larger this phase offset would 1433 00:51:35,430 --> 00:51:33,910 all right so then we go back to the so 1434 00:51:37,430 --> 00:51:35,440 back to the telescope after all this 1435 00:51:40,950 --> 00:51:37,440 activity's been going on in the modeling 1436 00:51:43,910 --> 00:51:40,960 and our effect seems to have disappeared 1437 00:51:45,109 --> 00:51:43,920 which is a bit nerve-wracking however 1438 00:51:48,549 --> 00:51:45,119 there is some 1439 00:51:51,589 --> 00:51:48,559 significant variability just on a 1440 00:51:53,109 --> 00:51:51,599 smaller scale 1441 00:51:55,430 --> 00:51:53,119 and that was we first saw that in 1442 00:51:57,270 --> 00:51:55,440 september 2003 1443 00:51:59,190 --> 00:51:57,280 we also saw that in epsilon n which is 1444 00:52:00,390 --> 00:51:59,200 another hot jupiter system 1445 00:52:03,109 --> 00:52:00,400 um 1446 00:52:06,150 --> 00:52:03,119 where the orbital period is now 1447 00:52:07,910 --> 00:52:06,160 i think it's 4.6 days and this here we 1448 00:52:09,349 --> 00:52:07,920 saw it happen for a few years and it was 1449 00:52:11,910 --> 00:52:09,359 actually in the first year we didn't see 1450 00:52:13,190 --> 00:52:11,920 very much going on 1451 00:52:14,950 --> 00:52:13,200 so 1452 00:52:16,470 --> 00:52:14,960 but then we went back of course we've 1453 00:52:18,549 --> 00:52:16,480 been monitoring the system for a few 1454 00:52:21,829 --> 00:52:18,559 years we went back in 2005 1455 00:52:24,390 --> 00:52:21,839 and for hd179949 1456 00:52:26,710 --> 00:52:24,400 again we saw the same amplitude at 1457 00:52:29,589 --> 00:52:26,720 almost nearly the exact same phase of 1458 00:52:31,750 --> 00:52:29,599 activity going on 1459 00:52:34,069 --> 00:52:31,760 but in 2006 i'll just back up for a 1460 00:52:35,190 --> 00:52:34,079 second in 2006 we saw the same thing i 1461 00:52:37,349 --> 00:52:35,200 don't have them plotted here but it's 1462 00:52:39,670 --> 00:52:37,359 kind of a lower a lower amplitude 1463 00:52:41,349 --> 00:52:39,680 variability 1464 00:52:44,309 --> 00:52:41,359 and so then if we plot them up with a 1465 00:52:45,750 --> 00:52:44,319 seven day period now remember we um we 1466 00:52:47,510 --> 00:52:45,760 still don't know the rotation period of 1467 00:52:48,870 --> 00:52:47,520 the star that is surprisingly difficult 1468 00:52:50,150 --> 00:52:48,880 to measure i know it seems like such a 1469 00:52:51,589 --> 00:52:50,160 basic thing 1470 00:52:53,430 --> 00:52:51,599 you know how can we not know how these 1471 00:52:55,109 --> 00:52:53,440 stars rotate but it's it's really a more 1472 00:52:57,109 --> 00:52:55,119 complicated measurement than we would 1473 00:52:58,630 --> 00:52:57,119 expect than one would expect 1474 00:53:00,150 --> 00:52:58,640 um so we didn't know what the rotation 1475 00:53:04,710 --> 00:53:00,160 period was but here we have from two 1476 00:53:07,670 --> 00:53:04,720 different epochs from both 2003 and 2006 1477 00:53:10,790 --> 00:53:07,680 we can fit them relatively well with a 1478 00:53:12,630 --> 00:53:10,800 seven day rotation period so 1479 00:53:14,470 --> 00:53:12,640 i think this is the first 1480 00:53:15,589 --> 00:53:14,480 direct measurement of the rotation of 1481 00:53:17,589 --> 00:53:15,599 the star 1482 00:53:20,150 --> 00:53:17,599 um they're offset by phase because 1483 00:53:22,230 --> 00:53:20,160 there's no reason to believe that 1484 00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:22,240 they're the same spot let's just say so 1485 00:53:25,190 --> 00:53:23,680 i just have a relative phase here it's 1486 00:53:27,510 --> 00:53:25,200 not an absolute phase 1487 00:53:29,750 --> 00:53:27,520 but anyway so what we see now is that 1488 00:53:32,150 --> 00:53:29,760 star planet interactions seems to have 1489 00:53:34,390 --> 00:53:32,160 this on-again off-again 1490 00:53:36,549 --> 00:53:34,400 characteristic 1491 00:53:38,870 --> 00:53:36,559 and lo and behold theorists came through 1492 00:53:41,589 --> 00:53:38,880 for us and kramer and star put out a 1493 00:53:44,069 --> 00:53:41,599 paper in 2007 1494 00:53:47,750 --> 00:53:44,079 um that explains this and does a very 1495 00:53:51,829 --> 00:53:49,109 and so what they've done here you have 1496 00:53:53,430 --> 00:53:51,839 at the top you have they take the actual 1497 00:53:54,710 --> 00:53:53,440 solar magnetic 1498 00:53:57,430 --> 00:53:54,720 field 1499 00:53:59,750 --> 00:53:57,440 structure at its various stages in the 1500 00:54:01,990 --> 00:53:59,760 11-year stellar activity cycle solar 1501 00:54:04,390 --> 00:54:02,000 activity cycle they do the modeling of 1502 00:54:07,750 --> 00:54:04,400 the this magnetic interaction with a 1503 00:54:11,430 --> 00:54:07,760 closen planet and what they show is that 1504 00:54:13,990 --> 00:54:11,440 um the amplitude um and whether or not 1505 00:54:15,670 --> 00:54:14,000 the spy start plant interaction emission 1506 00:54:16,790 --> 00:54:15,680 excess emission of calcium two is even 1507 00:54:17,589 --> 00:54:16,800 visible 1508 00:54:19,589 --> 00:54:17,599 um 1509 00:54:22,549 --> 00:54:19,599 has to do with the magnetic structure of 1510 00:54:23,990 --> 00:54:22,559 the star and so this is a whole other 1511 00:54:25,670 --> 00:54:24,000 you know piece of the puzzle that we 1512 00:54:27,349 --> 00:54:25,680 really need to model is we need to 1513 00:54:30,309 --> 00:54:27,359 understand the magnetic field structure 1514 00:54:32,589 --> 00:54:30,319 and we've then taken that um taken this 1515 00:54:35,030 --> 00:54:32,599 into an observational test using 1516 00:54:36,069 --> 00:54:35,040 spectropolarimetry and zeeman doppler 1517 00:54:37,510 --> 00:54:36,079 imaging 1518 00:54:39,670 --> 00:54:37,520 a technique that we're going to that we 1519 00:54:41,910 --> 00:54:39,680 are using now um in order to map the 1520 00:54:43,990 --> 00:54:41,920 magnetic fields of the stars at the same 1521 00:54:46,069 --> 00:54:44,000 time as measuring these stellar activity 1522 00:54:49,109 --> 00:54:46,079 indicators and so as you can see over 1523 00:54:51,270 --> 00:54:49,119 here you know in five consecutive orbits 1524 00:54:53,589 --> 00:54:51,280 you know we hear the green line is kind 1525 00:54:55,270 --> 00:54:53,599 of hard to see but in the green line 1526 00:54:57,109 --> 00:54:55,280 um is the stellar rotation the 1527 00:54:58,950 --> 00:54:57,119 modulation of the calcium emission just 1528 00:55:01,750 --> 00:54:58,960 by cell rotation and the black line is 1529 00:55:03,589 --> 00:55:01,760 the rotation plus any star uh planet 1530 00:55:05,670 --> 00:55:03,599 induced you can see that even from orbit 1531 00:55:06,870 --> 00:55:05,680 to orbit it varies so it's always hovers 1532 00:55:09,349 --> 00:55:06,880 around 1533 00:55:11,990 --> 00:55:09,359 phase zero which is the one two three 1534 00:55:13,589 --> 00:55:12,000 four marks but even from orbit orbit it 1535 00:55:14,630 --> 00:55:13,599 could disappear and especially from 1536 00:55:16,230 --> 00:55:14,640 season 1537 00:55:18,630 --> 00:55:16,240 and how it varies when the stellar 1538 00:55:21,109 --> 00:55:18,640 magnetic field structure 1539 00:55:22,790 --> 00:55:21,119 varies in itself 1540 00:55:24,630 --> 00:55:22,800 and so lastly if we look at the 1541 00:55:26,150 --> 00:55:24,640 collection of the 13 stars that we saw 1542 00:55:27,510 --> 00:55:26,160 together 1543 00:55:29,750 --> 00:55:27,520 um the 13 stars that we've been 1544 00:55:32,470 --> 00:55:29,760 monitoring for a few years we see this 1545 00:55:34,549 --> 00:55:32,480 very interesting correlation now i'll 1546 00:55:37,510 --> 00:55:34,559 quickly explain what it is on the white 1547 00:55:39,109 --> 00:55:37,520 on the y-axis we have mad well the mean 1548 00:55:41,190 --> 00:55:39,119 absolute deviations just the integrated 1549 00:55:42,950 --> 00:55:41,200 flux of this activity so it's just 1550 00:55:45,109 --> 00:55:42,960 saying how active is this star on a 1551 00:55:48,789 --> 00:55:45,119 short-term time scale 1552 00:55:50,470 --> 00:55:48,799 and on the y-axis i have plotted the 1553 00:55:53,030 --> 00:55:50,480 mass of the planet divided by the 1554 00:55:54,549 --> 00:55:53,040 rotation period which is a value 1555 00:55:56,549 --> 00:55:54,559 proportional to the planet's magnetic 1556 00:55:57,750 --> 00:55:56,559 moment and what's amazing is that even 1557 00:55:59,670 --> 00:55:57,760 though we only have four points there 1558 00:56:02,309 --> 00:55:59,680 seems to be this great correlation that 1559 00:56:03,829 --> 00:56:02,319 says that the stellar activity appears 1560 00:56:05,829 --> 00:56:03,839 to correlate with the magnetic moment of 1561 00:56:07,430 --> 00:56:05,839 the planet and this is going to one day 1562 00:56:10,309 --> 00:56:07,440 if we actually if we can really 1563 00:56:12,309 --> 00:56:10,319 understand this plot in detail um 1564 00:56:14,470 --> 00:56:12,319 allow us to measure the magnetic fields 1565 00:56:17,510 --> 00:56:14,480 of these extrasolar planets by observing 1566 00:56:19,430 --> 00:56:17,520 their host star and talboo here you see 1567 00:56:21,109 --> 00:56:19,440 it off to the side is sort of the 1568 00:56:25,109 --> 00:56:21,119 exception that proves the 1569 00:56:27,030 --> 00:56:25,119 that is because talboo the planet and 1570 00:56:28,710 --> 00:56:27,040 the star are tidally locked meaning that 1571 00:56:30,390 --> 00:56:28,720 the stellar rotation period and the 1572 00:56:32,230 --> 00:56:30,400 planetary period 1573 00:56:34,870 --> 00:56:32,240 are the same and which means that 1574 00:56:36,470 --> 00:56:34,880 there's no relative velocity there's no 1575 00:56:38,870 --> 00:56:36,480 there's no planets sweeping through 1576 00:56:41,910 --> 00:56:38,880 magnetic fields so you have this kind of 1577 00:56:43,349 --> 00:56:41,920 this depressed um level of activity than 1578 00:56:45,190 --> 00:56:43,359 you would expect given the mass of the 1579 00:56:47,190 --> 00:56:45,200 planet 1580 00:56:48,390 --> 00:56:47,200 and so in summary 1581 00:56:50,549 --> 00:56:48,400 um 1582 00:56:52,549 --> 00:56:50,559 we have detected a magnetic interaction 1583 00:56:54,549 --> 00:56:52,559 between a planet and it's hot between a 1584 00:56:56,309 --> 00:56:54,559 star and it's hot jupiter 1585 00:56:57,589 --> 00:56:56,319 monitoring for all these years has shown 1586 00:56:59,750 --> 00:56:57,599 that there's definitely an on and off 1587 00:57:01,510 --> 00:56:59,760 nature that appears to correlate with 1588 00:57:02,789 --> 00:57:01,520 the stellar magnetic 1589 00:57:07,670 --> 00:57:02,799 activity 1590 00:57:09,589 --> 00:57:07,680 um the correlation between stellar 1591 00:57:11,910 --> 00:57:09,599 activity and planetary magnetic moment 1592 00:57:13,190 --> 00:57:11,920 is really what's going to give us our 1593 00:57:23,430 --> 00:57:13,200 first 1594 00:57:28,150 --> 00:57:24,710 great thank you 1595 00:57:30,789 --> 00:57:28,160 okay and again if any of the sites have 1596 00:57:32,789 --> 00:57:30,799 questions please raise your hand in 1597 00:57:34,230 --> 00:57:32,799 webex but because i don't see anybody 1598 00:57:37,030 --> 00:57:34,240 i'm just going to open up the floor and 1599 00:57:38,710 --> 00:57:37,040 see yeah one question yeah 1600 00:57:42,549 --> 00:57:38,720 okay can i ask you to repeat their 1601 00:57:45,829 --> 00:57:44,950 i can't hear it is that me 1602 00:57:49,030 --> 00:57:45,839 yep 1603 00:57:50,710 --> 00:57:49,040 okay uh great talk uh i have a question 1604 00:57:53,190 --> 00:57:50,720 about this 1605 00:57:57,670 --> 00:57:53,200 inaction basically if it's uh the 1606 00:58:00,309 --> 00:57:57,680 communication model that's working then 1607 00:58:01,430 --> 00:58:00,319 does the planet have to have a magnetic 1608 00:58:03,589 --> 00:58:01,440 field 1609 00:58:06,789 --> 00:58:03,599 in order to be able to feedback 1610 00:58:08,390 --> 00:58:06,799 information to the star what about the 1611 00:58:12,230 --> 00:58:08,400 ionosphere 1612 00:58:15,190 --> 00:58:12,240 of the planet such as winners uh type of 1613 00:58:17,190 --> 00:58:15,200 interaction with that be able to act as 1614 00:58:19,349 --> 00:58:17,200 an obstacle and feed the information 1615 00:58:20,789 --> 00:58:19,359 back to the start 1616 00:58:23,349 --> 00:58:20,799 that's a great question because peru 1617 00:58:25,589 --> 00:58:23,359 said i'll say that they um 1618 00:58:27,109 --> 00:58:25,599 they don't need a magnetic field in 1619 00:58:30,950 --> 00:58:27,119 order to have this interaction the 1620 00:58:32,630 --> 00:58:30,960 question then why goo pingal gu and ip 1621 00:58:35,109 --> 00:58:32,640 and um 1622 00:58:37,589 --> 00:58:35,119 maureen jardine who has a recent paper 1623 00:58:39,589 --> 00:58:37,599 2006 paper they need to invoke a 1624 00:58:42,150 --> 00:58:39,599 magnetic field to get the energies that 1625 00:58:44,470 --> 00:58:42,160 we see so then it becomes 1626 00:58:46,630 --> 00:58:44,480 a matter of what is the energy budget 1627 00:58:49,190 --> 00:58:46,640 and how do you how do you determine that 1628 00:58:51,109 --> 00:58:49,200 so when i showed at the beginning 1629 00:58:52,950 --> 00:58:51,119 the various part components that we're 1630 00:58:55,109 --> 00:58:52,960 interested in the stellar spectrum 1631 00:58:57,190 --> 00:58:55,119 trying to sample the various heights is 1632 00:59:00,309 --> 00:58:57,200 in order to do to really do 1633 00:59:02,710 --> 00:59:00,319 a measurement of the energy budget 1634 00:59:04,549 --> 00:59:02,720 for this so it's not just 10 to the 27 1635 00:59:06,870 --> 00:59:04,559 ergs per second there's more going on 1636 00:59:08,309 --> 00:59:06,880 it's only 10 to the 27 ergs per second 1637 00:59:10,069 --> 00:59:08,319 in calcium 1638 00:59:12,150 --> 00:59:10,079 but there's obviously much more going on 1639 00:59:14,230 --> 00:59:12,160 i mean there's the x-ray detections and 1640 00:59:15,990 --> 00:59:14,240 so you're right 1641 00:59:18,470 --> 00:59:16,000 prue says you don't need it to have that 1642 00:59:20,390 --> 00:59:18,480 kind in that communication scenario but 1643 00:59:21,750 --> 00:59:20,400 she can't work out um 1644 00:59:23,910 --> 00:59:21,760 but it doesn't work out with the energy 1645 00:59:26,230 --> 00:59:23,920 you just need more 1646 00:59:27,589 --> 00:59:26,240 heated more than what we've seen so 1647 00:59:29,750 --> 00:59:27,599 that then invokes it has to be a 1648 00:59:31,270 --> 00:59:29,760 relatively strong magnetic field so 1649 00:59:33,030 --> 00:59:31,280 right now the magnetic field strength 1650 00:59:34,630 --> 00:59:33,040 that people are 1651 00:59:37,430 --> 00:59:34,640 plugging into the models is jupiter's 1652 00:59:38,470 --> 00:59:37,440 4.3 gals for the la for lack of anything 1653 00:59:40,069 --> 00:59:38,480 better 1654 00:59:41,670 --> 00:59:40,079 um 1655 00:59:43,910 --> 00:59:41,680 and it's still 1656 00:59:45,589 --> 00:59:43,920 still a bit low like in the sense that i 1657 00:59:47,990 --> 00:59:45,599 but again we don't have the full all the 1658 00:59:50,069 --> 00:59:48,000 numbers yet but it seems like you need a 1659 00:59:51,670 --> 00:59:50,079 relatively strong magnetic field on the 1660 00:59:53,349 --> 00:59:51,680 planet in order to get those kinds of 1661 00:59:56,549 --> 00:59:53,359 energies to begin with 1662 01:00:00,309 --> 00:59:57,910 great thank you 1663 01:00:01,910 --> 01:00:00,319 okay we have time for one more question 1664 01:00:07,750 --> 01:00:01,920 if there's any signs out there with the 1665 01:00:13,430 --> 01:00:10,390 ucla i noticed you were doing some fine 1666 01:00:16,390 --> 01:00:14,950 okay great 1667 01:00:18,549 --> 01:00:16,400 well thank you all for attending and i'm 1668 01:00:20,630 --> 01:00:18,559 gonna turn it over to carl for some 1669 01:00:23,510 --> 01:00:20,640 closing remarks okay well thank you very 1670 01:00:25,270 --> 01:00:23,520 much elise and evgenya uh for two 1671 01:00:27,109 --> 01:00:25,280 interesting talks i just wanted to 1672 01:00:30,309 --> 01:00:27,119 encourage graduate students to 1673 01:00:32,710 --> 01:00:30,319 participate in this series as well 1674 01:00:34,309 --> 01:00:32,720 evgenya and elise are both postdocs and 1675 01:00:35,910 --> 01:00:34,319 both postdocs and graduate students are 1676 01:00:37,430 --> 01:00:35,920 welcome but i want the grad students in 1677 01:00:40,069 --> 01:00:37,440 particular 1678 01:00:42,309 --> 01:00:40,079 to feel welcome to participate and any 1679 01:00:45,349 --> 01:00:42,319 graduate student who was at the recent 1680 01:00:48,470 --> 01:00:45,359 ab grad con in puerto rico and gave a 1681 01:00:51,750 --> 01:00:48,480 talk there i would urge you to plan to 1682 01:00:54,630 --> 01:00:51,760 give that talk here in one of these far 1683 01:00:56,870 --> 01:00:54,640 seminars so thank you all for attending 1684 01:00:58,470 --> 01:00:56,880 and we'll see the next time
