Recent exo-planetary surveys reveal that planets can orbit and survive around binary stars. This suggests that some fraction of young binary systems which possess massive circumbinary disks (CB) may be in the midst of planet formation. However, there are very few CB disks detected. We revisit one of the known CB disks, the UY Aurigae system, and probe 13CO 2-1, C18O 2-1, SO 5(6)-4(5) and 12CO 3-2 line emission and the thermal dust continuum. Our new results confirm the existence of the CB disk. In addition, the circumstellar (CS) disks are clearly resolved in dust continuum at 1.4 mm. The spectral indices between the wavelengths of 0.85 mm and 6 cm are found to be surprisingly low, being 1.6 for both CS disks. The deprojected separation of the binary is 1.26 based on our 1.4 mm continuum data. This is 0.07 (10 AU) larger than in earlier studies. Combining the fact of the variation of UY Aur B in $R$ band, we propose that the CS disk of an undetected companion UY Aur Bb obscures UY Aur Ba. A very complex kinematical pattern inside the CB disk is observed due to a mixing of Keplerian rotation of the CB disk, the infall and outflow gas. The streaming gas accreting from the CB ring toward the CS disks and possible outflows are also identified and resolved. The SO emission is found to be at the bases of the streaming shocks. Our results suggest that the UY Aur system is undergoing an active accretion phase from the CB disk to the CS disks. The UY Aur B might also be a binary system, making the UY Aur a triple system.

We report the ALMA Cycle 2 observations of the Class I binary protostellar system L1551 NE in the 0.9-mm continuum, C18O (3-2), 13CO (3-2), SO (7_8-6_7), and the CS (7-6) emission. At 0.18 (= 25 AU) resolution, ~4-times higher than that of our Cycle
0 observations, the circumbinary disk as seen in the 0.9-mm emission is shown to be comprised of a northern and a southern spiral arm, with the southern arm connecting to the circumstellar disk around Source B. The western parts of the spiral arms are brighter than the eastern parts, suggesting the presence of an m=1 spiral mode. In the C18O emission, the infall gas motions in the inter-arm regions and the outward gas motions in the arms are identified. These observed features are well reproduced with our numerical simulations, where gravitational torques from the binary system impart angular momenta to the spiral-arm regions and extract angular momenta from the inter-arm regions. Chemical differentiation of the circumbinary disk is seen in the four molecular species. Our Cycle 2 observations have also resolved the circumstellar disks around the individual protostars, and the beam-deconvolved sizes are 0.29 X 0.19 (= 40 X 26 AU) (P.A. = 144 deg) and 0.26 X 0.20 (= 36 X 27 AU) (P.A. = 147 deg) for Sources A and B, respectively. The position and inclination angles of these circumstellar disks are misaligned with that of the circumbinary disk. The C18O emission traces the Keplerian rotation of the misaligned disk around Source A.
High-mass multiples might form via fragmentation of self-gravitational disks or alternative scenarios such as disk-assisted capture. However, only few observational constraints exist on the architecture and disk structure of high-mass protobinaries a
nd their accretion properties. Here we report the discovery of a close ($57.9pm0.2$mas=170au) high-mass protobinary, IRAS17216-3801, where our VLTI/GRAVITY+AMBER near-infrared interferometry allows us to image the circumstellar disks around the individual components with 3 milliarcsecond resolution. We estimate the component masses to $sim20$ and $sim18 M_{odot}$ and find that the radial intensity profiles can be reproduced with an irradiated disk model, where the inner regions are excavated of dust, likely tracing the dust sublimation region in these disks. The circumstellar disks are strongly misaligned with respect to the binary separation vector, which indicates that the tidal forces did not have time to realign the disks, pointing towards a young dynamical age of the system. We constrain the distribution of the Br$gamma$ and CO-emitting gas using VLTI/GRAVITY spectro-interferometry and VLT/CRIRES spectro-astrometry and find that the secondary is accreting at a higher rate than the primary. VLT/NACO imaging shows $L$-band emission on 3-4 times larger scales than the binary separation, matching the expected dynamical truncation radius for the circumbinary disk. The IRAS17216-3801 system is $sim3times$ more massive and $sim5times$ more compact than other high-mass multiplies imaged at infrared wavelengths and the first high-mass protobinary system where circumstellar and circumbinary dust disks could be spatially resolved. This opens exciting new opportunities for studying star-disk interactions and the role of multiplicity in high-mass star formation.
We present new K-band spectroscopy of the UY Aur binary star system. Our data are the first to show H$_{2}$ emission in the spectrum of UY Aur A and the first to spectrally resolve the Br{gamma} line in the spectrum of UY Aur B. We see an increase in
the strength of the Br{gamma} line in UY Aur A and a decrease in Br{gamma} and H$_{2}$ line luminosity for UY Aur B compared to previous studies. Converting Br{gamma} line luminosity to accretion rate, we infer that the accretion rate onto UY Aur A has increased by $2 times 10^{-9}$ M$_{odot}$ yr$^{-1}$ per year since a rate of zero was observed in 1994. The Br{gamma} line strength for UY Aur B has decreased by a factor of 0.54 since 1994, but the K-band flux has increased by 0.9 mags since 1998. The veiling of UY Aur B has also increased significantly. These data evince a much more luminous disk around UY Aur B. If the lower Br{gamma} luminosity observed in the spectrum of UY Aur B indicates an intrinsically smaller accretion rate onto the star, then UY Aur A now accretes at a higher rate than UY Aur B. However, extinction at small radii or mass pile-up in the circumstellar disk could explain decreased Br{gamma} emission around UY Aur B even when the disk luminosity implies an increased accretion rate. In addition to our scientific results for the UY Aur system, we discuss a dedicated pipeline we have developed for the reduction of echelle-mode data from the ARIES spectrograph.
We carry out 2D viscous hydrodynamics simulations of circumbinary disk (CBD) accretion using {footnotesize AREPO}. We resolve the accretion flow from a large-scale CBD down to the streamers and disks around individual binary components. Extending our
recent studies citep{mun19}, we consider circular binaries with various mass ratios ($0.1leq q_{rm{b}}leq1$) and study accretion from ``infinite, steady-supply disks and from finite-sized, viscously spreading tori. For ``infinite disks, a global steady state can be reached, and the accretion variability has a dominant frequency ${sim}0.2Omega_{rm{b}}$ for $q_{rm{b}}>0.5$ and $Omega_{rm{b}}$ for $q_{rm{b}}<0.5$, ($Omega_{rm{b}}$ is the binary angular frequency). We find that the accretion ``eigenvalue $l_0$ -- the net angular momentum transfer from the disk to the binary per unit accreted mass -- is always positive and falls in the range ($0.65$-$0.85)a_{rm b}^2Omega_{rm{b}}$ (with $a_{rm{b}}$ the binary separation), depending weakly on the mass ratio and viscosity. This leads to binary expansion when $q_{rm{b}}gtrsim0.3$. Accretion from a finite torus can be separated into two phases: an initial transient phase, corresponding to the filling of the binary cavity, followed by a viscous pseudo-stationary phase, during which the torus viscously spreads and accretes onto the binary. In the viscous phase, the net torque on the binary per unit accreted mass is close to $l_0$, the value derived for ``infinite disks. We conclude that similar-mass binaries accreting from CBDs gain angular momentum and expand over long time scales. This result significantly impacts the coalescence of supermassive binary black holes and newly formed binary stars. We offer a word of caution against conclusions drawn from simulations of transient accretion onto empty circumbinary cavities.
The majority of stars are part of gravitationally bound stellar systems, such as binaries. Observations of protobinary systems constrain the conditions that lead to stellar multiplicity and subsequent orbital evolution. We report high-angular resolut
ion observations of the circumbinary disk around [BHB2007] 11, a young binary protostar system. The two protostars are embedded in circumstellar disks that have radii of 2 to 3 astronomical units and probably contain a few Jupiter masses. These systems are surrounded by a complex structure of filaments connecting to the larger circumbinary disk. We also observe accretion and radio jets associated with the protobinary system. The accretion is preferentially onto the lower-mass protostar, consistent with theoretical predictions.
