Explore a 19-minute conference talk by Agnes Kospal from Konkoly Observatory on time-resolved protoplanetary disk physics in bursting young stellar objects. Recorded during the "Planets on the Edge" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (KITP) at UC Santa Barbara in May 2025, this presentation examines the dynamic processes occurring in protoplanetary disks around young stars experiencing outbursts. The talk contributes to the broader conference themes addressing Earth-sized planets in inner protoplanetary disks, including their nature and formation, potential migration patterns, governing parameters across different star systems, and why our solar system lacks analogous close-in rocky planets. The conference brought together experts in exoplanet demographics, protoplanetary disks, formation models, and meteoritics to synthesize current knowledge and advance understanding through interdisciplinary collaboration. Access additional conference materials, including recordings and slide decks, through the KITP website.
