| title: | Dusts in an eccentric protoplanetary disk with an embedded massive planet |
| abstract: | Dusts are the build blocks of planets. The presence of a cavity in protoplanetary disks revealed by dust continuum emissions in sometimes postulated as a signpost of an embedded gas giant planet. In this talk, I shall focus on an eccentric protoplanetary disk perturbed by a massive planet. The physics of eccentric disks will be briefly reviewed, followed by our theoretical study on dust spatial distributions in such planet-disk systems. |
