In this chapter we will discuss the evolution of dust in protoplanetary disks, focusing on the
processes of grain growth and the observational consequences of this process. In the …

We investigated the association of chronic pain with physical and mental comorbidity in the
New Zealand population by measuring chronic pain status separate from comorbid …

Recent advances in materials science and engineering highlight the importance of designing
sophisticated biomaterials with well-defined architectures and tunable properties for …

A model for irradiated dust disks around Herbig Ae stars is proposed. The model is based on
the flaring disk model given by Chiang and Goldreich in 1997, but with the central regions …

… mixing equations following the discussion of Dullemond & Dominik (2004b). We refer to that
… In Appendix B we describe our numerical algorithm, and in Appendix C we show the results …

Even though dust coagulation is a very important dust-processing mechanism in interstellar
space and protoplanetary disks, there are still important parts of the physics involved that are …

Context. Young circumstellar disks are the birthplaces of planets. Their study is of prime
interest to understand the physical and chemical conditions under which planet formation takes …

We analyze how the process of dust settling affects the spectral energy distribution and
optical appearance of protoplanetary disks. Using simple analytic estimates on the one hand, …

… mechanism causing such a shadowing (Dullemond & Dominik in prep.), but another possibility
… paper we will model the process of dust settling in detail (Dullemond & Dominik in prep.). …

Observations of circumstellar environments that look for the direct signal of exoplanets and
the scattered light from disks have significant instrumental implications. In the past 15 years, …
