| The chemistry and evolution of disks around brown dwarfs remain relatively unexplored due to their faintness. However, these chemically rich systems offer valuable insights into giant planet formation. Recent studies have shown that low-mass stars may be more effective at forming or retaining close-in planets. Yet, we still know far less about planet formation, chemical composition, disk structure, and evolution around brown dwarfs compared to their higher-mass counterparts, like T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be stars, which are easier to study in large samples. This talk will review the key findings from initial observations of brown dwarf disks. |
