HD 97048

The spectrum shows strong variable emission lines indicative of a shell surrounding the star.

[10] HD 97048 is a member of the Chamaeleon T1 stellar association and is still embedded within the dark molecular cloud that it is forming from.

[11] This star has a substantial dust disk having a central cavity with a 40−46 AU radius[3] The disk has a carbon monoxide gas velocity kink and intensity gap at 130 AUs, which is suspected to be caused by a superjovian planet.

[12] In 2019, HCO+ ion and Hydrogen cyanide emission was detected from the disk, suggesting a large amount of gas is orbiting beyond 200 AU radius.

[13] In the system a kink in the velocity of carbon monoxide gas (CO 3–2) as well as a gap in the dust emission of the disk are seen as evidence for a jovian protoplanet.
