Detailed look at birthplaces of planets with ALMA

Research on understanding the formation process of planetary systems has been progressing very rapidly in recent years, but there are still many unknowns. In this talk, mainly focusing on high-resolution observations using ALMA, I would like to talk about such as the growth of dust (solid) suggested in protoplanetary disks and the ongoing observational project to probe detailed gas kinematics in disks, along with a review of this science field.
