  3. Star-forming regions of Chamaeleon ESO: VLT / FORS1 CHXR 32 • 3 dark clouds Cha I, II und III • Distance 160 – 180 pc* • Cha I with 33 Brown dwarfs of approx. 240 members and 2 million years age • Cha II approx. 50 members • Cha III only few hints of stellar formation (Pfau et al. 1996) DSS Dobashi et al. 2005 DI Cha DSS Sz 22 HD 97048 Cha Ha 5 Luhman et al. 2008 Cederblad 111 reflection nebula * Parsec: 1 pc = 3.26 light years = 3.086 .1016 m

  18. Disk around CT Cha A ATCA New Detection of CT Cha at ATCA in 3 mm (93 & 95 GHz), 7.2 mJy total, 5 mJy in Maximum

  19. Disk around CT Cha A

  20. Disk around CT Cha A For k = 0.3 to 3 cm^2 / g and mean disk temperature of 20 – 50 K the disk mass is 0.1 – 1 Jupiter mass Deconvolution of the marginal extended gaussian-shaped 3mm source in comparison to synthesized beam size suggests an outer disk radius of 100 – 150 au.
