The gas dynamics of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) is largely controlled by non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effects including Ohmic resistivity, the Hall effect, and ambipolar diffusion. In this series, we have included, for the first time, all three non-ideal MHD effects in a self-consistent manne...
