Cosmic Cascades: How Disk Substructure Regulates the Flow of Water to Inner Planetary Systems

The influx of icy pebbles to the inner regions of protoplanetary disks constitutes a fundamental ingredient in most planet formation theories. The observational determination of the magnitude of this pebble flux and its dependence on disk substructure (disk gaps as pebble traps) would be a significa...
