Global 3D Radiation Hydrodynamic Simulations of Proto-Jupiter's Convective Envelope

Zhaohuan Zhu, Yan-Fei Jiang, Hans Baehr +3

The core accretion model of giant planet formation has been challenged by the discovery of recycling flows between the planetary envelope and the disc that can slow or stall envelo…

Particle Dynamics in 3D Self-gravitating Disks II: Strong Gas Accretion and Thin Dust Disks

Hans Baehr, Zhaohuan Zhu

Observations suggest that protoplanetary disks have moderate accretion rates onto the central young star, especially at early stages (e.g. HL Tau), indicating moderate disk turbule…

Particle Dynamics in 3D Self-gravitating Disks I: Spirals

Hans Baehr, Zhaohuan Zhu

Spiral arms are distinctive features of many circumstellar disks, observed in scattered light, which traces the disk surface, millimeter dust emission, which probes the disk midpla…

Kozai-Lidov oscillations triggered by a tilt instability of detached circumplanetary discs

Rebecca G. Martin, Zhaohuan Zhu, Philip J. Armitage +2

Circumplanetary discs can be linearly unstable to the growth of disc tilt in the tidal potential of the star-planet system. We use three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations to c…

EDEN: Sensitivity Analysis and Transiting Planet Detection Limits for Nearby Late Red Dwarfs

Aidan Gibbs, Alex Bixel, Benjamin Rackham +23

Small planets are common around late-M dwarfs and can be detected through highly precise photometry by the transit method. Planets orbiting nearby stars are particularly important…

Requirements for gravitational collapse in planetesimal formation --- the impact of scales set by Kelvin-Helmholtz and nonlinear streaming instability

Konstantin Gerbig, Ruth A. Murray-Clay, Hubert Klahr +1

The formation of planetesimals is an unsolved problem in planet formation theory. A prominent scenario for overcoming dust growth barriers in dead zones is the gravitational collap…
