![[Beyond] Code in Astro: how to simulate a Protoplanetary Disc with DustPy](https://astrobites.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/DSHARP-320x260.jpg)
How do astrophysicists research and model planet formation in protoplanetary discs? Learn how to simulate a protoplanetary disc using DustPy: software commonly used in state-of-the-art research!
…to learn more about the origins of dusty galaxies at early cosmic times.
Today we interview Dr. Adam Leroy, who is a professor at the Ohio State University and one of this year’s #AAS247 Plenary speakers!
JWST offers new insights into the vertical structure of this protoplanetary disc, special for the ambient emitting background that provides a back-light. Find out what the JEDIce program has discovered!
The galaxy M82 is host to an extended multiphase wind driven by star formation. Today’s paper attempts to use JWST observations of dust in the wind to understand the structure of its cooler gas.
From guest authors: coverage of “New Data that Challenge Underlying Assumptions in Early Galaxy Evolution”, the first conference hosted by the choir collaboration.
