Scientific paper

We propose to observe with ATCA at 3 mm 11 protoplanetary disks in the Chamaeleon I star forming region. Together with rho-Oph and Lupus, Chamaeleon I is an ideal region to study the physical processes involved in the formation of stars and planets. With these observations we would constrain the dust properties in the disks, i.e. grain growth and disk mass, and we would use these results to investigate any possible relation between disk and stellar properties. The new data would let us compare the Cha I results with analogous results obtained in the Taurus and rho-Oph star forming regions in order to see if and how the first steps of planet formation are related to the environment in which the parental disks form and evolve.
