OH mid-infrared emission as a diagnostic of H2O UV photodissociation. III. Application to planet-forming disks

This repository contains the grid of MIRI-MRS synthetic spectra presented in Tabone, van Dishoeck, and Black 2024. In this work, we include in the DALI disk model prompt emission of OH following photodissociation of H2O in its B electronic state by photons at λ < 144 nm. The propensity of forming OH in the A’ symmetric states is taken into account.  H2O and OH emission is calculated from 9 to 18 micron and convolved at a spectral resolution of R=2500 to be readily compared with JWST data.
