Description
Protoplanetary disks observed in scattered light reveal essential insights into the disk’s three-dimensional architecture and
dust properties. These disks, which play a crucial role in planet formation, have complex structures where the visibility of the disk’s
backside can vary significantly based on several parameters.
Aims. We aim to explore the factors impacting backside visibility in protoplanetary disks, particularly under variations in
inclination, dust distribution, grain characteristics, and outer disk morphology. This study contributes to understanding the detectability of the backside in protoplanetary disks, with implications
for refining observational strategies and interpreting backside features in scattered light images. These findings help frame backside
visibility as a critical aspect of assessing disk structure and evolution.
