Research led by LPL Sagan Fellow Feng Long and a team that includes LPL professor Ilaria Pascucci and graduate student Chengyan Xie have discovered that protoplanetary disks can grace their host stars longer than previously thought, provided the stars are one-tenth or less of the Solar mass.

Tactile models and teaching methods developed by LPL Associate Professor of Practice Steve Kortenkamp and Dept. of Education’s Associate Professor Sunggye Hong increase accessibility for all.
