Fractal Aggregates of Submicron-sized Grains in the Young Planet-forming Disk around IM Lup

Despite rapidly growing disk observations, it remains a mystery what primordial dust aggregates look like and what the physical and chemical properties of their constituent grains (monomers) are in young planet-forming disks. Confrontation of models with observations to answer this mystery has been...
