Kinematic signatures of a low-mass planet with a moderately inclined orbit in a protoplanetary disk
Abstract A planet embedded in a protoplanetary disk produces a gap by disk–planet interaction. It also generates velocity perturbation of gas, which can also be observed as deviations from the Keplerian rotation in the channel map of molecular line emission, called kinematic planetary features. These observed signatures provide clues to …
