GW Ori: Interactions Between a Triple-star System and its Circumtriple Disk in Action
read the original abstract
GW Ori is a hierarchical triple system which has a rare circumtriple disk. We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of 1.3 mm dust continuum and 12CO J=2-1 molecular gas emission of the disk. For the first time, we identify three dust rings in the disk at ~46, 188, and 338 AU, with estimated dust mass of ~70-250 Earth masses, respectively. To our knowledge, the outer ring in GW Ori is the largest dust ring ever found in protoplanetary disks. We use visibility modelling of dust continuum to show that the disk has misaligned parts and the innermost dust ring is eccentric. The disk misalignment is also suggested by the CO kinematics modelling. We interpret these substructures as evidence of ongoing dynamical interactions between the triple stars and the circumtriple disk.

Exploring the radial velocity variations of RY Lup with VLT/ESPRESSO: Binary versus spot hypotheses
RY Lup's 3.75-day RV and LSD variations are compatible with a ~0.04 au binary (q~0.6, e~0.23, i~13°) or with multi-spot activity, but both interpretations have serious physical tensions.
