Disk Dispersal

Disk Dispersal is a theoretical construct in astrophysics that describes the process by which circumstellar disks lose mass and dissipate over time due to mechanisms such as photoevaporation, accretion, and planet formation, thereby marking the transition from protoplanetary to debris disk phases.
