TW Hya is a 0.6 M⊙ (solar mass), 10-million-year-old T Tauri star (13) 53.7 T 6.2 pc away from Earth. Its 196-AU-radius disk is the closest protoplanetary disk to Earth with strong gas emission lines. The disk’s mass is estimated at 2 × 10−4 to 6 × 10−4 M⊙ in dust and, using different tracers and assumptions, between 4 × 10−5 and 0.06 M⊙ in gas (14–16). The velocity widths of the H2O lines (0.96 to 1.17 km s−1) (table S1) exceed by ∼40% those of cold CO (14). These correspond to CO emission Downloaded from www.sciencemag.org on Dece Detections and non-detections • • • Detections: TW Hya, HD100546 Upper limits: AA Tau, DM Tau, LkCa15, HD163296, MWC 480 Lines and upper limits lower than models predict Fig. 1.

Consistent with other studies (19), we find a layer of maximum water vapor abundance of 0.5 × 10−7 to 2 × 10−7 relative to H2 at an intermediate height in the disk. Above this layer, water is photodissociated; below it, little photodesorption occurs and water is frozen out, with an ice abundance, set by available oxygen, of 10−4 relative to H2. In our model, the 100- to 196-AU region dominates the line emission, which exceeds observations in strength by factors of 5.3 T 0.2 for H2O 110-101 and 3.3 T 0.2 for H2O 111-000.

The intensity contours correspond to 3, 10, 30, 100, and 300 times the calculated rms (30 mJy beam−1 km s−1 ) and the continuum contours correspond to 3, 10, 30, 100, 300, and 1000 times the rms (0.5 mJy beam−1 ). The CO integrated intensity reaches 5% of its peak value at ≈ 20 × the rms, whereas the continuum emission reaches 5% at ≈ 60 × the rms. The synthesized beam (shown in the bottom left-hand corner) is the same for both the continuum and CO observations.
