Radio bursts from the solar corona can provide clues to forecast space weather hazards. After recent technology advancements, regular monitoring of radio bursts has increased and large observational data sets are produced. Hence, manual identification and classification of them is a challenging task. In this paper, we describe an algorithm to automatically identify radio bursts from dynamic solar radio spectrograms using a novel statistical method. We used e-CALLISTO radio spectrometer data observed at Gauribidanur observatory near Bangalore in India during 2013 - 2014. We have studied the classifier performance using the receiver operating characteristics. Further, we studied type III bursts observed in the year 2014 and found that $75%$ of the observed bursts were below 200 MHz. Our analysis shows that the positions of the flare sites which are associated with the type III bursts with upper-frequency cut-off $gtrsim 200$ MHz originate close to the solar disk center

We have performed a statistical study of $152$ Type III radio bursts observed by Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO)/Waves between May 2007 and February 2013. We have investigated the flux density between $125$kHz and $16$MHz. Both high-
and low-frequency cutoffs have been observed in $60,%$ of events suggesting an important role of propagation. As already reported by previous authors, we observed that the maximum flux density occurs at $1$MHz on both spacecraft. We have developed a simplified analytical model of the flux density as a function of radial distance and compared it to the STEREO/Waves data.
Radio waves are strongly scattered in the solar wind, so that their apparent sources seem to be considerably larger and shifted than the actual ones. Since the scattering depends on the spectrum of density turbulence, better understanding of the radi
o wave propagation provides indirect information on the relative density fluctuations $epsilon=langledelta nrangle/langle nrangle$ at the effective turbulence scale length. Here, we have analyzed 30 type III bursts detected by Parker Solar Probe (PSP). For the first time, we have retrieved type III burst decay times $tau_{rm{d}}$ between 1 MHz and 10 MHz thanks to an unparalleled temporal resolution of PSP. We observed a significant deviation in a power-law slope for frequencies above 1 MHz when compared to previous measurements below 1 MHz by the twin-spacecraft Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) mission. We note that altitudes of radio bursts generated at 1 MHz roughly coincide with an expected location of the Alfv{e}n point, where the solar wind becomes super-Alfv{e}nic. By comparing PSP observations and Monte Carlo simulations, we predict relative density fluctuations $epsilon$ at the effective turbulence scale length at radial distances between 2.5$R_odot$ and 14$R_odot$ to range from $0.22$ and $0.09$. Finally, we calculated relative density fluctuations $epsilon$ measured in situ by PSP at a radial distance from the Sun of $35.7$~$R_odot$ during the perihelion #1, and the perihelion #2 to be $0.07$ and $0.06$, respectively. It is in a very good agreement with previous STEREO predictions ($epsilon=0.06-0.07$) obtained by remote measurements of radio sources generated at this radial distance.
The recent ALMA DSHARP survey provided illuminating results on the diversity of substructures in planet forming disks. These substructures trace pebble-sized grains accumulated at local pressure maxima, possibly due to planet-disk interactions or oth
er planet formation processes. DSHARP sources are heavily biased to large and massive disks that only represent the high (dust flux) tail end of the disk population. Thus it is unclear whether similar substructures and corresponding physical processes also occur in the majority of disks which are fainter and more compact. Here we explore the presence and characteristics of features in a compact disk around GQ Lup A, the effective radius of which is 1.5 to 10 times smaller than those of DSHARP disks. We present our analysis of ALMA 1.3mm continuum observations of the GQ Lup system. By fitting visibility profiles of the continuum emission, we find substructures including a gap at ~ 10 au. The compact disk around GQ Lup exhibits similar substructures to those in the DSHARP sample, suggesting that mechanisms of trapping pebble-sized grains are at work in small disks as well. Characteristics of the feature at ~ 10 au, if due to a hidden planet, are evidence of planet formation at Saturnian distances. Our results hint at a rich world of substructures to be identified within the common population of compact disks, and subsequently a population of solar system analogs within these disks. Such study is critical to understanding the formation mechanisms and planet populations in the majority of protoplanetary disks.
The early evolution of protostellar disks with metallicities in the $Z=1.0-0.01~Z_odot$ range was studied with a particular emphasis on the strength of gravitational instability and the nature of protostellar accretion in low-metallicity systems. Num
erical hydrodynamics simulations in the thin-disk limit were employed that feature separate gas and dust temperatures, and disk mass-loading from the infalling parental cloud cores. Models with cloud cores of similar initial mass and rotation pattern, but distinct metallicity were considered to distinguish the effect of metallicity from that of initial conditions. The early stages of disk evolution in low-metallicity models are characterized by vigorous gravitational instability and fragmentation. Disk instability is sustained by continual mass-loading from the collapsing core. The time period that is covered by this unstable stage is much shorter in the $Z=0.01~Z_odot$ models as compared to their higher metallicity counterparts thanks to the higher mass infall rates caused by higher gas temperatures (that decouple from lower dust temperatures) in the inner parts of collapsing cores. Protostellar accretion rates are highly variable in the low-metallicity models reflecting a highly dynamical nature of the corresponding protostellar disks. The low-metallicity systems feature short, but energetic episodes of mass accretion caused by infall of inward-migrating gaseous clumps that form via gravitational fragmentation of protostellar disks. These bursts seem to be more numerous and last longer in the $Z=0.1~Z_odot$ models in comparison to the $Z=0.01~Z_odot$ case. Variable protostellar accretion with episodic bursts is not a particular feature of solar metallicity disks. It is also inherent to gravitationally unstable disks with metallicities up to 100 times lower than solar.
Nitrogen chemistry in protoplanetary disks and the freeze-out on dust particles is key to understand the formation of nitrogen bearing species in early solar system analogs. So far, ammonia has not been detected beyond the snowline in protoplanetary
disks. We aim to find gas-phase ammonia in a protoplanetary disk and characterize its abundance with respect to water vapor. Using HIFI on the Herschel Space Observatory we detect, for the first time, the ground-state rotational emission of ortho-NH$_3$ in a protoplanetary disk, around TW Hya. We use detailed models of the disks physical structure and the chemistry of ammonia and water to infer the amounts of gas-phase molecules of these species. We explore two radial distributions ( confined to $<$60 au like the millimeter-sized grains) and two vertical distributions (near the midplane where water is expected to photodesorb off icy grains) to describe the (unknown) location of the molecules. These distributions capture the effects of radial drift and vertical settling of ice-covered grains. We use physical-chemical models to reproduce the fluxes with assuming that water and ammonia are co-spatial. We infer ammonia gas-phase masses of 0.7-11.0 $times$10$^{21}$ g. For water, we infer gas-phase masses of 0.2-16.0 $times$10$^{22}$ g. This corresponds to NH$_3$/H$_2$O abundance ratios of 7%-84%, assuming that water and ammonia are co-located. Only in the most compact and settled adopted configuration is the inferred NH$_3$/H$_2$O consistent with interstellar ices and solar system bodies of $sim$ 5%-10%. Volatile release in the midplane may occur via collisions between icy bodies if the available surface for subsequent freeze-out is significantly reduced, e.g., through growth of small grains into pebbles or larger.
