However, direct detection of protoplanets forming within discs has proved elusive to date. We present the detection of a large, localized deviation from Keplerian velocity in the protoplanetary disc surrounding the young star HD163296. The observed velocity pattern is consistent with the dynamical effect of a two Jupiter-mass planet orbiting at a radius $\\approx$ 260au from the star.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-05-25T18:00:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "circumstellar disc", "kinematic evidence", "embedded protoplanet", "young star hd163296", "dust surrounding young stars" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
