3 TW Hya - Nearby (~ 51 pc) in TW Hya association Very well studied, face-on, transition disk (TD) at interesting age Dust observations + gas line emission detected from several species (Pascucci & Tachibana 2010) Debris Disks Classical disks Disk Dispersal? Planet Formation? INTRODUCTION Excellent target for gas disk modeling. Aims: Infer gas conditions & spatial distribution, test disk evolution theories: Grain growth? Planet formation? Photoevaporation?

5 (Calvet et al. 2002; (also Eisner et al. 2006) Inner (~ 4 AU) hole inferred from dust continuum modeling. Optically thin inner disk, optically thick outer disk. flux deficit (Hughes et al. 2007) But…. (Muzerolle et al. 2000) Star accretes! ………gas present. INTRODUCTION Calvet et al. Model with hole Model: No holeData

6 Possible Explanations for TD Morphology: 1.Grain Growth - Dust has coagulated into larger invisible objects, but gas remains. 2.Planet Formation - Planet present, interacts with disk dynamically, and creates a hole. 3.Photoevaporation - Stellar high energy radiation (EUV,FUV, X-rays) causes mass loss at a critical radius, viscous accretion drains inner disk matter. 4.MRI-induced evacuation - Ionization of gas causes MRI activation at inner disk edge, drives accretion and disk is evacuated “inside-out”. Gas distribution may provide clues to disk evolution INTRODUCTION

23 MODELING NeII H 2, OH [OI] 63um CO OI6300 thermal OH, OI 6300A non-thermal

24 Origin of the OH lines and the OI 6300A line MODELING OH lines originate in a cascade from high J, unlikely to be thermal. OI6300/OI5577A line ratio ~ 7, also pointing to non-thermal origin. OH and OI arise from the photodissociation of H 2 O and OH, which absorb a large fraction of the Lyman  photons from star. * (Harich et al. 2000) (vanDishoeck & Dalgarno 1983)

BUT [NeII] profile indicates flow (Pascucci & Sterzik 2009) Re-capture of gas in photoevaporating flow? Planet opens gap at 4 AU, and photoevaporation is ongoing. Mass loss rate ~ 5 10 -9 M o /yr, disk lifetime estimate ~ 10 Myrs.

33 Summary Observed CO rovibrational emission constrains gas in inner disk. Gas present in inner opacity hole of TW Hya disk, but depleted by a factor of ~ 100. Pure grain growth is not a likely cause of the dust hole. Gas disk models reproduce observed line emission. OH MIR lines and OI 6300A line are produced by photodissociation of H 2 O and OH by FUV photons. Gas giant planet is the best explanation for the surface density jump at ~ 4AU. Photoevaporation also acts, mass loss is enhanced at the 4 AU rim, disk may survive for < 10 Myrs at current mass loss rate.
