We report the codiscovery of the spatially-resolved dust disk of the Vega-like star HR 4796A. Images of the thermal dust emission at $lambda = 18 mu$m show an elongated structure approximately 200 AU in diameter surrounding the central A0V star. The position angle of the disk, $30^{circ} pm 10^{circ}$, is consistent to the position angle of the M companion star, $225^{circ}$, suggesting that the disk-binary system is being seen nearly along its orbital plane. The surface brightness distribution of the disk is consistent with the presence of an inner disk hole of approximately 50 AU radius, as was originally suggested by Jura et al. on the basis of the infrared spectrum. HR 4796 is a unique system among the Vega-like or $beta$ Pictoris stars in that the M star companion (a weak-emission T Tauri star) shows that the system is relatively young, $sim 8 pm 3$ Myr. The inner disk hole may provide evidence for coagulation of dust into larger bodies on a timescale similar to that suggested for planet formation in the solar system.

We present new ALMA 233 GHz continuum observations of the FU Orionis Object HBC722. With these data we detect HBC722 at millimeter wavelengths for the first time, use this detection to calculate a circumstellar disk mass of 0.024 solar masses, and di
scuss implications for the burst triggering mechanism.
We report identification of the first unambiguous example of what appears to be a new class of first-ascent giant stars that are actively accreting gas and dust and that are surrounded by substantial dusty disks. These old stars, who are nearing the
end of their lives, are experiencing a rebirth into characteristics typically associated with newborn stars. The F2-type first-ascent giant star TYC 4144 329 2 is in a wide separation binary system with an otherwise normal G8 IV star, TYC 4144 329 1. From Keck near-infrared imaging and high-resolution spectroscopy we are able to determine that these two stars are $sim$1 Gyr old and reside at a distance of $sim$550 pc. One possible explanation for the origin of the accreting material is common-envelope interaction with a low-mass stellar or sub-stellar companion. The gaseous and dusty material around TYC 4144 329 2, as it is similar to the primordial disks observed around young classical T Tauri stars, could potentially give rise to a new generation of planets and/or planetesimals.
Protoplanetary disks are known to posses a stunning variety of substructure in the distribution of their mm~sized grains, predominantly seen as rings and gaps (Andrews et al. 2018), which are frequently interpreted as due to the shepherding of large
grains by either hidden, still-forming planets within the disk (Zhang et al. 2018) or (magneto-)hydrodynamic instabilities (Flock et al. 2015). The velocity structure of the gas offers a unique probe of both the underlying mechanisms driving the evolution of the disk, the presence of embedded planets and characterising the transportation of material within the disk, such as following planet-building material from volatile-rich regions to the chemically-inert midplane, or detailing the required removal of angular momentum. Here we present the radial profiles of the three velocity components of gas in upper disk layers in the disk of HD 163296 as traced by 12CO molecular emission. These velocities reveal significant flows from the disk surface towards the midplane of disk at the radial locations of gaps argued to be opened by embedded planets (Isella et al. 2016, 2018, Teague et al. 2018, Pinte et al. 2018), bearing striking resemblance to meridional flows, long predicted to occur during the early stages of planet formation (Szulagyi et al. 2014, Morbidelli et al. 2014, Fung & Chiang 2016, Dong et al. 2019). In addition, a persistent radial outflow is seen at the outer edge of the disk, potentially the base of a wind associated with previously detected extended emission (Klaassen et al. 2013).
We present high resolution ($sim$300 au) Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of the massive young stellar object G11.92-0.61 MM 1. We resolve the immediate circumstellar environment of MM 1 in 1.3 mm continuum emission an
d CH$_{3}$CN emission for the first time. The object divides into two main sources - MM 1a, which is the source of a bipolar molecular outflow, and MM 1b, located 0.57 (1920 au) to the South-East. The main component of MM 1a is an elongated continuum structure, perpendicular to the bipolar outflow, with a size of $0.141 times 0.050$ ($480times170$ au). The gas kinematics toward MM 1a probed via CH$_{3}$CN trace a variety of scales. The lower energy $J=12-11$ $K=3$ line traces extended, rotating gas within the outflow cavity, while the $v$8=1 line shows a clearly-resolved Keplerian rotation signature. Analysis of the gas kinematics and dust emission shows that the total enclosed mass in MM 1a is $40pm5$ M$_{odot}$ (where between 2.2-5.8 M$_{odot}$ is attributed to the disk), while MM 1b is $<0.6$ M$_{odot}$. The extreme mass ratio and orbital properties of MM 1a and MM 1b suggest that MM 1b is one of the first observed examples of the formation of a binary star via disk fragmentation around a massive young (proto)star.
[Abridged] We present the first direct comparison of the distribution of the gas, as traced by the [OI] 6300 AA emission, and the dust, as traced by the 10 micron emission, in the protoplanetary disk around three intermediate-mass stars: HD 101412, H
D 135344 B and HD 179218. N-band visibilities were obtained with VLTI/MIDI. Simple geometrical models are used to compare the dust emission to high-resolution optical spectra in the 6300 AA [OI] line of the same targets. The disks around HD 101412 and HD 135344 B appear strongly flared in the gas, but self-shadowed in the dust beyond ~ 2 AU. In both systems, the 10 micron emission is rather compact (< 2 AU) while the [OI] brightness profile shows a double peaked structure. The inner peak is strongest and is consistent with the location of the dust, the outer peak is fainter and is located at 5-10 AU. Spatially extended PAH emission is found in both disks. The disk around HD 179218 is flared in the dust. The 10 micron emission emerges from a double ring-like structure with the first ring peaking at ~ 1 AU and the second at ~ 20 AU. No dust emission is detected between ~ 3 -- 15 AU. The oxygen emission seems also to come from a flared structure, however, the bulk of this emission is produced between ~ 1 -- 10 AU. This could indicate a lack of gas in the outer disk or could be due to chemical effects which reduce the abundance of OH -- the parent molecule of the observed [OI] emission -- further away from the star. The three systems, HD 179218, HD 135344 B and HD 101412, may form an evolutionary sequence: the disk initially flared becomes flat under the combined action of gas-dust decoupling, grain growth and dust settling.
