Evolution of the protolunar disk: dynamics, cooling timescale and implantation of volatiles onto the Earth

Charnoz Charnoz, Chloe Michaut

It is thought that the Moon accreted from the protolunar disk that was assembled after the last giant impact on Earth. Due to its high temperature, the protolunar disk may act as a…

Discovery of Seven Companions to Intermediate Mass Stars with Extreme Mass Ratios in the Scorpius-Centaurus Association

Sasha Hinkley, Adam L. Kraus, Michael J. Ireland +6

We report the detection of seven low mass companions to intermediate-mass stars (SpT B/A/F; 1.5-4.5 solar masses) in the Scorpius-Centaurus Association using nonredunda…

Growth of calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions by coagulation and fragmentation in a turbulent protoplanetary disk: observations and modelisation

S. Charnoz, J. Aleon, N. Chaumard +2

Whereas it is generally accepted that calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) from chondritic meteorites formed in a hot environment in the solar protoplanetary disk, the condition…

Time evolution of snow regions and planet traps in an evolving protoplanetary disk

Kévin Baillié, Sébastien Charnoz, Éric Pantin

Aims. We track the time evolution of planet traps and snowlines in a viscously evolving protoplanetary disk using an opacity table that accounts for the composition of the dust mat…

VUV-absorption cross section of CO2 at high temperatures and impact on exoplanet atmospheres

Olivia Venot, Nicolas Fray, Yves Bénilan +6

Ultraviolet (UV) absorption cross sections are an essential ingredient of photochemical atmosphere models. Exoplanet searches have unveiled a large population of short-period objec…
