RESOLVING THE PLANET-HOSTING INNER REGIONS OF THE LkCa 15 DISK

RESOLVING THE PLANET-HOSTING INNER REGIONS OF THE LkCa 15 DISK

LkCa 15 hosts a pre-transitional disk as well as at least one accreting protoplanet orbiting in its gap. Previous disk observations have focused mainly on the outer disk, which is cleared inward of similar to 50 au. The planet candidates, on the other hand, reside at orbital radii around 15 au, wher...
