Consequently\, planet migration is actively discussed\, ye t often results of independent theoretical or numerical studies are uncons trained due to the lack of observational diagnostics designed in light of planet migration. In this work we follow the idea of inferring the migrati on behavior of embedded planets by means of the characteristic radial stru ctures that they imprint in the disk’s dust density distribution. We run hydrodynamical multifluid simulations of gas and several dust species in a locally isothermal α-disk in the low-viscosity regime (α = 10-5) and i nvestigate the obtained dust structures. In this framework\, a planet of r oughly Neptune mass can create three (or more) rings in which dust accumul ates. We find that the relative spacing of these rings depends on the plan et’s migration speed and direction. By performing subsequent radiative t ransfer calculations and image synthesis we show that—always under the c ondition of a near-inviscid disk—different migration scenarios are\, in principle\, distinguishable by long-baseline\, state-of-the-art Atacama La rge Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.d e/event/1/contributions/33/ LOCATION:Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) Lecture Hall URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/1/contributions/33/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
