Multiple rings in the transition disk and companion candidates around RX J1615.3-3255

Multiple rings in the transition disk and companion candidates around RX J1615.3-3255

We search for signs of ongoing planet-disk interaction and study the distribution of small grains at the surface of the transition disk around RXJ1615.3-3255 (RX J1615). We observed RXJ1615 with VLT/SPHERE. We image the disk for the first time in scattered light and detect two arcs, two rings, a gap …
