Description

As the agency reported it.

We propose to analyze high resolution infrared spectra of a sample of young STARS expected to show strong emission in water, OH, CO, and organic molecules. We will model the emission features observed in the k and l-bands using software developed by US. By comparing the observed spectra with synthetic disk models we will be able to: (a) measure the intrinsic line broadening in disks; (b) characterize the mechanical heating in the inner disk; (c) examine the role of photochemistry in setting inner disk surface abundances, and (d) detect or set detection limits on organic molecules in inner disks. These results will provide major insights into the nature of the accretion mechanism in disks. They will also open a new window onto the nature of disk chemistry and the ability of disks to synthesize molecules of biological interest.
