We present an open access grid of 3930 calculations of externally evaporating protoplanetary discs. This spans a range of disc sizes (1-400AU), disc masses, UV field strengths (10-10$^4$G$_0$) and stellar masses (0.05-1.9M$_odot$). The grid is publicly available for download, and offers a means of cheaply including external photoevaporation in disc evolutionary calculations. It can also be queried using an online tool for quick estimates of instantaneous mass loss rates (e.g for convenient evaluation of real observed systems). The `FRIED grid itself illustrates that for discs around stars $leq0.3$M$_odot$ external photoevaporation is effective down to small radii ($<50$AU) down to UV fields at least as weak as 10G$_0$. At the other end of the scale, in a $10^4$G$_0$ environment photoevaporation is effective down to 1AU even for stellar masses at least as high as 1.9M$_odot$. We also illustrate in which regimes CO survives in the photoevaporative outflow for significant mass loss rates; marking a system a good candidate to detect external photoevaporation in weak-intermediate UV environments through sub-Keplerian rotation. Finally we make illustrative mass loss rate estimates for discs in Taurus based on the Guilloteau et al. (2011) star-disc parameters, finding that around half are expected to have both significant mass loss and retain CO in the photoevaporative outflow.
There is growing theoretical and observational evidence that protoplanetary disc evolution may be significantly affected by the canonical levels of far ultraviolet (FUV) radiation found in a star forming environment, leading to substantial stripping
Computing the flow from externally FUV irradiated protoplanetary discs requires solving complicated and expensive photodissociation physics iteratively in conjunction with hydrodynamics. Previous studies have therefore been limited to 1D models of th
Context. Planets are thought to eventually form from the mostly gaseous (~99% of the mass) disks around young stars. The density structure and chemical composition of protoplanetary disks are affected by the incident radiation field at optical, FUV,
Most of the mass in protoplanetary disks is in the form of gas. The study of the gas and its diagnostics is of fundamental importance in order to achieve a detailed description of the thermal and chemical structure of the disk. The radiation from the
A relation between the mass accretion rate onto the central young star and the mass of the surrounding protoplanetary disk has long been theoretically predicted and observationally sought. For the first time, we have accurately and homogeneously dete
