Title:Testing the Massive Black Hole Paradigm in the Galactic Center
Abstract:
The discovery of the Quasars in the 1960s led to the ‘massive black hole paradigm’ in which most galaxies host massive black holes of masses
between millions to billions of solar masses at their nuclei, which can become active galactic nuclei
and quasars when they accrete gas and stars rapidly. I will discuss the major progress that has happened
in the last decades to prove the massive black hole paradigm through ever more detailed, high resolution observations,
in the center of our own Galaxy, as well as in external galaxies and even in distant quasars.
In the Galactic Center such high resolution observations can also be used to test General Relativity in the regime of large masses and curvatures.

Title:Light curves of electron capture and Fe core collapse supernovae:
The diagnostic method of electron capture supernovae
Abstract:
While massive stars (M>~10Msun) explode as Fe core collapse supernovae
(FeCCSNe) at their last moment, those have slightly lower mass
(M~8-10Msun) are theoretically expected to form O+Ne+Mg degenerated
core, become Super Asymptotic Giant Branches (SAGB) and finally explode
as electron capture supernovae (ECSNe) if their envelope is remained
(Miyaji et al. 1980; Nomoto et al. 1982; Nomoto 1984, 1987). However,
such evolutionary path and the mass boundary between FeCCSN and ECSN are
not confirmed and constrained by observation because of insufficient
observations of ECSNe. The reasons why we could hardly diagnose ECSN
clearly are that observational characteristics of ECSNe comparing to
low-mass FeCCSNe are not understood sufficiently, and the diagnostic
method of ECSNe is not established yet. Although Kozyreva et al. (2021)
shows that ECSN has blue plateau, they don’t include circumstellar
material (CSM) interaction. However, CSM interaction might change the
light curve significantly (Moriya et al. 2018). Thus, we synthesized the
multicolor light curves of ECSNe and low-mass FeCCSNe including CSM
interaction using the multi-group radiation hydrodynamics code, STELLA
(Blinnikov et al. 1993). As a result, ECSN is revealed to show bluer
plateau than low-mass FeCCSN even if it has reasonably dense CSM. Using
this characteristic, we propose the first diagnostic method of ECSN in
which the transition time from plateau to tail phase (tPT) and the color
index B-V at tPT/2 are used. In the talk, we will show the calculated
light curves of ECSN and low-mass FeCCSN and discuss their
characteristics. In addition, we will propose the diagnostic method of
ECSN. Also, we will mention our future work in which we will try to find
an ECSN and reveal its nature.

Title:Early Fragmentation in Infrared Dark Clouds
Abstract:
The study of infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) sheds light on the initial
conditions governing the formation of high-mass stars and stellar
clusters. We have conducted high-angular resolution and high-sensitivity
observations toward thirty-nine massive IRDC clumps, mosaicked by the
Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. These clumps,
characterized by their darkness at 70 μm, as well as their density and
low temperature, are thought to be the ideal sites as the birthplace of
high-mass stars. We succeeded in identifying an unprecedented number of
839 cores, with masses between 0.05 and 81 Msun. With this large sample,
we investigated the fragmentation properties in the very early stage of
high-mass star formation. By employing the minimum spanning tree method,
we calculated core separations ranging from 0.1 pc to 0.4 pc. To discern
the dominant mechanism behind early fragmentation, as well as the
hierarchical nature of the process, we compared these observed core
separations and masses with those expected from Jeans length and masses,
respectively. Our analysis implies that thermal Jeans fragmentation of
clumps is the dominant mechanism deriving the observed properties
especially for the formation of gravitationally bound cores.
Additionally, we find that some clumps exhibit a wide dynamic range of
core masses, spanning from low to high masses while others show a
narrower range. Clumps with a higher protostellar core fraction tend to
display a wider range. Furthermore, our sample highlights the complex
nature of fragmentation, characterized by various patterns such as
aligned, spread, and concentrated distributions. These findings provide
valuable insights into the mechanisms deriving high-mass star formation.

Title:GRB Optical and X-ray Plateau Properties Classifier Using
Unsupervised Machine Learning
Abstract:
The division of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) into different classes, other
than the “short” and “long”, has been an active field of research. We
investigate whether GRBs can be classified based on a broader set of
parameters, including prompt and plateau emission ones. Observational
evidence suggests the existence of more GRB sub-classes, but results so
far are either conflicting or not statistically significant. The novelty
here is producing a machine-learning-based classification of GRBs using
their observed X-rays and optical properties. We used two data samples:
the first, composed of 203 GRBs, is from the Neil Gehrels Swift
Observatory (Swift/XRT, (Gehrels et al. 2004; Burrows et al. 2005)), and
the latter, composed of 134 GRBs, is from the ground-based Telescopes
and Swift/UVOT (Roming et al. 2005). Both samples possess the plateau
emission (a flat part of the light curve happening after the prompt
emission, the main GRB event). We have applied Gaussian Mixture Model
(GMM) to explore multiple parameter spaces and sub-class combinations to
reveal if there is a match between the current observational sub-classes
and the statistical classification. With these samples and algorithm, we
spot a few micro-trends in certain cases, but we cannot conclude that
any clear trend exists in classifying GRBs. These microtrends could
point towards a deeper understanding of the physical meaning of these
classes (e.g., a different environment of the same progenitor or
different progenitors). However, a larger sample and different
algorithms could achieve such goals. Thus, this methodology can lead to
deeper insights in the future.

Title:Constraints on the dust size distributions in the HD 163296 disk
from the difference of the apparent dust ring widths between two ALMA Bands
Abstract:
The formation of planets begins with dust coagulation in
protoplanetary disks. Therefore, constraints on the dust size
distribution in the disks can be a clue for understanding planet
formation. In previous studies, the dust size has been estimated by
using the spectral index derived from multi-wavelength observations or
dust polarization observations. However, these studies provide different
results depending on their methods and models and do not reach a consensus.
In this work, we propose a new method to constrain the dust size
distribution by using the wavelength dependency of the dust ring widths.
Since larger dust grains are trapped more effectively in the gas
pressure bump, they form narrower rings. As a result, the dust rings
appear narrower at longer wavelength observations since observations are
sensitive to the dust grains whose size is comparable to the observed
wavelength.
We constrain the dust size distribution in the HD 163296 disk using
ALMA high-resolution observations in Band 6 (1.25 mm) and Band 4 (2.14
mm). We focus on the two clear dust rings in the disk and find that the
outer ring at 100 au appears narrower at the longer wavelength, while
the inner ring at 67 au appears similar between the two bands. We model
a dust ring assuming size-dependent dust trapping at a gas pressure
maxima and investigate the relation between the wavelength dependency of
the ring width and the spectral index, and the dust size distribution.
By comparing the model with the observations, we constrain the maximum
dust size a_max and the exponent of the power law dust size distribution
p. We constrain that 0.9 mm < a_max < 5 mm and p < 3.3 in the inner ring, and 35 mm < a_max > 1000 mm and 3.4 < p < 3.7 in the outer ring.
The larger maximum dust size in the outer ring suggests that the degree
of dust growth is spatially dependent, which could affect the location
of the planetesimal formation.

Title: Dust enrichment and grain growth in a smooth disk around the DG Tau protostar revealed by ALMA triple bands frequency observations
Abstract: Characterizing the physical properties of dust grains in a protoplanetary disk is critical
to comprehending the planet formation process. Our study presents ALMA high-resolution observations
of the young protoplanetary disk around DG Tau at a 1.3 mm dust continuum. The observations,
with a spatial resolution of 0.04 arcsec, or 5 au, revealed a geometrically thin and smooth disk
without substantial substructures, suggesting that the disk retains the initial conditions of the planet formation.
To further analyze the distributions of dust surface density, temperature, and grain size,
we conducted a multi-band analysis with several dust models, incorporating ALMA archival data
of the 0.87 mm and 3.1 mm dust polarization. The results showed that the Toomre Q parameter is
<2 at a disk radius of 20 au, assuming a dust-to-gas mass ratio of 0.01, which means that a higher
dust-to-gas mass ratio is necessary to stabilize the disk. In addition, grain sizes depend on the dust models,
and were found to be less than 0.1 -1 mm in the inner region (r<20 au), while they exceeded larger than 1 mm
in the outer part. Radiative transfer calculations show that the dust scale height is lower than at least
one-third of the gas scale height. These distributions of dust enrichment, grain sizes, and weak turbulence
strength may have significant implications for the formation of planetesimals through mechanisms such as streaming instability.
We also discuss the CO snowline effect and collisional fragmentation in dust coagulation for the origin of the dust size distribution.

Title:Modeling the thermal evolution of planet-forming disks
Abstract:
The thermal structure of protoplanetary disks determines when and
where planets of different compositions form. However, the thermal
structure of these disks remains largely uncertain due to two main
factors: (1) the existence of strong internal heating sources deep
inside the disks is still unknown, and (2) the cooling rate of the disks
is influenced by micron-sized dust grains and varies as the grains grow
into larger solid bodies. Dust growth can even impact disk heating
induced by magnetic fields, as the grains regulate the disks’ electric
conductivity by capturing plasmas. All these factors indicate that the
temperature structure of the disks evolves as planet formation (dust
evolution) progresses. In this presentation, I will discuss our recent
efforts to model the coupled evolution of dust and the thermal structure
of protoplanetary disks. Specifically, I will highlight the roles played
by magnetic fields, disk shadows, and planet-induced spiral shocks in
shaping the disks’ temperature distribution.
