XUE. ProDiMo models of internally and externally irradiated planet-forming disks around 0.3-4.0 solar mass stars (The IRIS project I)

Most stars and planets form in massive star-forming regions, where disks are exposed to external far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation from nearby O- and B-type stars. The combined effects of stellar irradiation and external FUV fields on terrestrial planet-forming regions (< 10 au) across stellar masses remain unclear. We investigate how internal UV and X-ray irradiation and external FUV fields affect mid-infrared (mid-IR) gas emission and the atmospheric carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratios inferred in T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be disks. We compute disk structures with ProDiMo and synthetic spectra with FLiTs, convolved to a representative JWST/MIRI-MRS resolution (R about 2680). (1) We present the Internal and external irRadIation of diSks (IRIS) grid: four model sets spanning stellar masses of 0.3-4.0 solar masses, including stellar X-ray flares and an external FUV field of 1e4 G0 (Habing units). (2) We predict increasing flux densities with stellar mass for key atomic and molecular mid-IR tracers. (3) External FUV irradiation enhances CH3+ and H2 emission, whereas FUV-induced disk truncation yields inner disk chemistry resembling that of disks irradiated only by their host stars. (4) Mid-IR H2O, CO2, and C2H2 line ratios imply carbon-rich compositions (C/O about 1-10) in the warm emitting layers of T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be disks, primarily reflecting stellar irradiation, with little sensitivity to external FUV irradiation. The IRIS grid provides a flexible framework for interpreting JWST and future Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) infrared disk observations across a broad range of stellar properties and irradiation conditions. Future models should include FUV-driven photoevaporative winds, X-ray radiative transfer, and time-dependent X-ray irradiation.
