Overview

Abstract

  • We performed aperture synthesis 345 GHz continuum and CO(3-2) observations with SMA and Ks-band polarized intensity imaging with the Subaru telescope for a transition disk around class III object in Lupus, Sz 91. Our observations successfully resolved the dust disk with a radius of 170 AU and unveiled the inner hole with a radius of 65 AU. In addition, we found the rotating gas disk with a radius of 260 AU in the CO(3-2) line. The model fitting to the spectral energy distribution reveals that the disk contains a mass of 2.2×10-3 in the cold outer part of the disk, and a small amount (≥ 10-6 MJup) of warm dust (≥ 150 K) remains in the inner hole of the disk. The structure of the hot component could be interpreted by either a self-luminous emitting body (e.g., circumplanetary disk) or a ring in the inner hole of the disk.
