Hashimoto, T. Muto, M. Sitko, K. Follette, M. Bonnefoy, N. Kusakabe, M. Tamura, SEEDS/HiCIAO/IRCS/AO188 Collaboration

2 Proto-planetary discs in this talk: discs around ~2 solar-mass stars Compared to TTS Higher frequency of giant planets (e.g., Johnson et al. 2010) Planets detected in direct imaging HR 8799, β Pic, HD Marois et al. (2010) Lagrange et al. (2010) Rameau et al. (2013)

3 Proto-planetary discs in this talk 0.1 Myr Age: 1 10 Myr Herbig Ae/Fe stars (F, A-type) T eff = K M * 2 M 1 Myr Optically thick (L IR /L * Nearby, isolated 0.1), gaseous Single stars; companions not known at the time of target selection 10 Myr 100 Myr NAOJ

4 Scattered-light imaging in near-infrared For optically thick discs, Sensitive to dust in the upper surface of the disc Grains with high scattering efficiency small, (sub- )micron dust 1. Dust sedimentation toward the mid-plane 2. Temperature structure AU

5 Disc imaging with Subaru 1. Higher angular resolution Adaptive optics ( seeing 0.6 ) ~0.07 at 1.6 m 10 AU at 140 pc 28 AU at 400 pc 2. Inner region Polarization differential imaging Inner working radius ~ AU at 140 pc 80 AU at 400 pc Observable = polarized intensity

6 No gaps Variable shadowing? 0.5 =70 AU NIR, thermal shadowing Scattered light was detected when the system is fainter in near-infrared thermal emission. dust growth and sedimentation Kusakabe et al. (2012)

7 Gapped Spiral arms within ~100 AU Two arms seem common Spirals preferentially found for warm (>6000 K) discs? 50 AU 50 AU South Muto et al. (2012) Grady et al. (2013)

8 Gapped Spiral arms within ~100 AU Two arms seem common Spirals preferentially found for warm (>6000 K) discs? 50 AU South Garufi et al. (2013) Benisty et al. (2015) (de-projected, multiplied by r 2 )

9 Gapped Arm-like structure, non-axisymmetry within ~100 AU Evidence of spiral is weaker, but still not axi-symmetric. 100 AU Ohta et al. (submitted.) 100 AU Follette et al. (2014) Momose et al. (2015), Quanz et al. (2013)

10 V1247 Ori: one-armed spiral? Inner disk at 0.2 AU + gap to 46 AU. Companion with the mass ratio, q > ~0.1, is excluded. An arc or a spiral with small pitch angle at 108 AU. 0.2 =77 AU Ohta et al. submitted. (de-projected, multiplied by r 2 ) Kraus et al. (2013)

11 Gapped Arm-like structure beyond 200 AU Large-scale arms seem to disks with remnant envelopes Sometimes, the arm was detected in CO (Tang et al. 2012, Christiaens et al. 2014) Massive, long-lived disc? Hashimoto et al. (2011)

12 Gapped Arm-like structure beyond 200 AU Large-scale arms seem to disks with remnant envelopes Sometimes, the arm was detected in CO (Tang et al. 2012, Christiaens et al. 2014) Massive, long-lived disc? Tang et al. (2012) 1000 AU 280 AU Grady et al. (1999)

13 Gapped Arm-like structure beyond 200 AU Large-scale arms seem to disks with remnant envelopes Sometimes, the arm was detected in CO (Tang et al. 2012, Christiaens et al. 2014) Massive, long-lived disc? AU 100 AU Ardila et al. (2007) Boccaletti et al. (2013)

14 Companions with extreme mass ratio Intermediate-mass stars w/o protoplanetary disks in Sco-Cen (10 20 Myr) q~ Hinkley et al. (2015)

15 Summary Over 10 discs around Herbig Ae stars were directly imaged in scattered light with <0.1 (<14 40 AU) resolution with 8-m class telescopes. Most discs with large (>10 AU) gaps show distinct non-axisymmetry, suggesting presence of companions probably with extreme mass ratio. Non-gapped disks are variable with time in scattered-light, suggesting that their dust discs are already settled. Formation of planets/(sub)stellar companions may occur before 1 Myr. Important to observe discs at < 1 Myr. Companion search in 1 30 AU with mass ratio < 0.1 will be important.
