Young planets with masses approaching Jupiters have tides strong enough to clear gaps around their orbits in the protostellar disk. Gas flow through the gaps regulates the planets further growth and governs the disks evolution. Magnetic forces may drive that flow if the gas is sufficiently ionized to couple to the fields. We compute the ionizing effects of the X-rays from the central young star, using Monte Carlo radiative transfer calculations to find the spectrum of Compton-scattered photons reaching the planets vicinity. The scattered X-rays ionize the gas at rates similar to or greater than the interstellar cosmic ray rate near planets the mass of Saturn and of Jupiter, located at 5 au and at 10 au, in disks with the interstellar mass fraction of sub-micron dust and with the dust depleted a factor 100. Solving a gas-grain recombination reaction network yields charged particle populations whose ability to carry currents is sufficient to partly couple the magnetic fields to the gas around the planet. Most cases can undergo Hall shear instability, and some can launch magnetocentrifugal winds. However the material on the planets orbit has diffusivities so large in all the cases we examine, that magneto-rotational turbulence is prevented and the non-ideal terms govern the magnetic fields evolution. Thus the flow of gas in the gaps opened by the young giant planets depends crucially on the finite conductivity.

Dust gaps and rings appear ubiquitous in bright protoplanetary disks. Disk-planet interaction with dust-trapping at the edges of planet-induced gaps is one plausible explanation. However, the sharpness of some observed dust rings indicate that sub-mm
-sized dust grains have settled to a thin layer in some systems. We test whether or not such dust around gas gaps opened by planets can remain settled by performing three-dimensional, dust-plus-gas simulations of protoplanetary disks with an embedded planet. We find planets massive enough to open gas gaps stir small, sub-mm-sized dust grains to high disk elevations at the gap edges, where the dust scale-height can reach ~70% of the gas scale-height. We attribute this dust puff-up to the planet-induced meridional gas flows previously identified by Fung & Chiang and others. We thus emphasize the importance of explicit 3D simulations to obtain the vertical distribution of sub-mm-sized grains around gas gaps opened by massive planets. We caution that the gas-gap-opening planet interpretation of well-defined dust rings is only self-consistent with large grains exceeding mm in size.
The paper presents new high angular resolution ALMA 1.3 mm dust continuum observations of the protoplanetary system AS 209 in the Ophiuchus star forming region. The dust continuum emission is characterized by a main central core and two prominent rin
gs at $r = 75,$au and $r = 130,$au intervaled by two gaps at at $r = 62,$au and $r = 103,$au. The two gaps have different widths and depths, with the inner one being narrower and shallower. We determined the surface density of the millimeter dust grains using the 3D radiative transfer disk code textsc{dali}. According to our fiducial model the inner gap is partially filled with millimeter grains while the outer gap is largely devoid of dust. The inferred surface density is compared to 3D hydrodynamical simulations (FARGO-3D) of planet-disk interaction. The outer dust gap is consistent with the presence of a giant planet ($M_{rm planet} sim 0.8,M_{rm Staturn}$); the planet is responsible for the gap opening and for the pile-up of dust at the outer edge of the planet orbit. The simulations also show that the same planet can give origin to the inner gap at $r = 62,$au. The relative position of the two dust gaps is close to the 2:1 resonance and we have investigated the possibility of a second planet inside the inner gap. The resulting surface density (including location, width and depth of the two dust gaps) are in agreement with the observations. The properties of the inner gap pose a strong constraint to the mass of the inner planet ($M_{rm planet} < 0.1,M_{rm J}$). In both scenarios (single or pair of planets), the hydrodynamical simulations suggest a very low disk viscosity ($alpha < 10^{-4}$). Given the young age of the system (0.5 - 1 Myr), this result implies that the formation of giant planets occurs on a timescale of $lesssim$ 1,Myr.
Protoplanets can produce structures in protoplanetary disks via gravitational disk-planet interactions. Once detected, such structures serve as signposts of planet formation. Here we investigate the kinematic signatures in disks produced by multi-Jup
iter mass ($M_{rm J}$) planets using 3D hydrodynamics and radiative transfer simulations. Such a planet opens a deep gap, and drives transonic vertical motions inside. Such motions include both a bulk motion of the entire half-disk column, and turbulence on scales comparable to and smaller than the scale height. They significantly broaden molecular lines from the gap, producing double-peaked line profiles at certain locations, and a kinematic velocity dispersion comparable to thermal after azimuthal averaging. The same planet does not drive fast vertical motions outside the gap, except at the inner spiral arms and the disk surface. Searching for line broadening induced by multi-$M_{rm J}$ planets inside gaps requires an angular resolution comparable to the gap width, an assessment of the gap gas temperature to within a factor of 2, and a high sensitivity needed to detect line emission from the gap.
We examine the gas circulation near a gap opened by a giant planet in a protoplanetary disk. We show with high resolution 3D simulations that the gas flows into the gap at high altitude over the mid-plane, at a rate dependent on viscosity. We explain
this observation with a simple conceptual model. From this model we derive an estimate of the amount of gas flowing into a gap opened by a planet with Hill radius comparable to the scale-height of a layered disk (i. e. a disk with viscous upper layer and inviscid midplane). Our estimate agrees with modern MRI simulations(Gressel et al., 2013). We conclude that gap opening in a layered disk can not slow down significantly the runaway gas accretion of Saturn to Jupiter-mass planets.
Planet migration originally refers to protoplanetary disks, which are more massive and dense than typical accretion disks in binary systems. We study planet migration in an accretion disk in a binary system consisting of a solar-like star hosting a p
lanet and a red giant donor star. The accretion disk is fed by a stellar wind. %, disk self-gravity is neglected. We use the $alpha$-disk model and consider that the stellar wind is time-dependent. Assuming the disk is quasi-stationary we calculate its temperature and surface density profiles. In addition to the standard disk model, when matter is captured by the disk at its outer edge, we study the situation when the stellar wind delivers matter on the whole disc surface inside the accretion radius with the rate depending on distance from the central star. Implying that a planet experiences classical type I/II migration we calculate migration time for a planet on a circular orbit coplanar with the disk. Potentially, rapid inward planet migration can result in a planet-star merger which can be accompanied by an optical or/and UV/X-ray transient. We calculate timescale of migration for different parameters of planets and binaries. Our results demonstrate that planets can fall on their host stars within the lifetime of the late-type donor for realistic sets of parameters.
