Technique limited to external disk regions (the disk to star contrast being too high close to the star) 44 A T TAURI STAR IM Lup : a case study 45 A T TAURI STAR IM Lup : a case study Silicates features => micron-sized grains in the inner disk upper layers Blue dotted line: fit to the SED with wellmixed dust and gas, amax=3microns Silicates features repoduced, but not the mm observations 46 A T TAURI STAR IM Lup : a case study Millimiter slope => mm-sized grains. Green dashed line: fit to the SED with well-mixed dust and gas, amax=3mm Silicates features badly repoduced: the micrometer-sized grains do not dominate the midIR opacity MM GRAINS ARE PRESENT, BUT NOT IN THE UPPER DISK LAYERS 47 A T TAURI STAR IM Lup : a case study Parametrized stratification : H a-ξ, withξ=0.1 Red line: fit to the SED, amax=3mm Both the silicates features and the mm observations are more correctly adjusted SETTLING PROVIDES A SOLUTION TO THE FITTING OF THE SED 48 A T TAURI STAR IM Lup : a case study 421 200 models Simultaneous fit to: the SED Scattered light images, 2 wavelengths Millimeter maps Bayesian analysis SOLUTIONS WITH NO SETTLING AT ALL ARE LARGELY EXCLUDED 49 Summary Observations are consistent with grain growth in disks, at least up to cmsized particles + This seems to happen independent of the stellar luminosity There are evidence for vertical settling as well as vertical mixing There are evidence for radial dust transportation and differential grain growth - Different observations probe different regions: Disk opacity Temperature gradient => this complicates the interpretation Solid bodies larger than ~ cm are invisible ! No clear temporal dependence 50 Observations challenge the models Models have to explain the presence of mm/cm-sized grains in disks for millions of years Models have to explain the presence of micron-sized grains in disk upper layers Models have to explain the presence of large quantities of crystalline silicates in cold disk regions 51 Prospect ANR « Dusty Disks » (PI F.
