Scientific paper

In the next few years, both Herschel and ALMA will be providing unique new insights into the physics and chemistry of protoplanetary disks. In particular, they will be used to study how disks evolve from massive embedded systems around young Class 0 objects, through low-mass disks around optically-visible T Tauri stars, to debris disks around stars on the main-sequence. Gas dominates the mass in the younger systems, but in debris systems there is very little - if any. How does the gas disappear, what is the effect of this on planetary formation, and what is the role of “transition” disks? I outline some of the areas where these two large facilities will contribute to these studies, focussing on the Herschel Key project, GASPS, and looking forward to the role of ALMA.
