Protoplanetary Disk Science Enabled by Extremely Large Telescopes

2019

We discuss how a spectroscopic and imaging survey of protoplanetary disks with Extremely Large Telescopes will enhance our understanding of planet formation by (1) measuring the physical and chemical conditions in disks using infrared spectroscopy and (2) studying planet-disk interactions using imaging and spectro-astrometry.
