JWST MIRI MRS Observations of T Cha: Discovery of a Spatially Resolved Disk Wind

Understanding when and how circumstellar disks disperse is crucial to constrain planet formation and migration. Thermal winds powered by high-energy stellar photons have long been theorized to drive disk dispersal. However, evidence for these winds is currently based only on small (∼3–6 km s ^−1 ) b...
