Torque wiggles -- a robust feature of the global disc-planet interaction

Nicolas P. Cimerman, Roman R. Rafikov, Ryan Miranda

Gravitational coupling between planets and protoplanetary discs is responsible for many important phenomena such as planet migration and gap formation. The key quantitative charact…

Gaps and Rings in Protoplanetary Disks with Realistic Thermodynamics: The Critical Role of In-Plane Radiation Transport

Ryan Miranda, Roman R. Rafikov

Many protoplanetary disks exhibit annular gaps in dust emission, which may be produced by planets. Simulations of planet-disk interaction aimed at interpreting these observations o…

Meso-scale Instability Triggered by Dust Feedback in Dusty Rings: Origin and Observational Implications

Pinghui Huang, Hui Li, Andrea Isella +3

High spatial resolution observations of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) by ALMA have revealed many details that are providing interesting constraints on the disk physics as well as dus…

Planet-disk interaction in disks with cooling: basic theory

Ryan Miranda, Roman R. Rafikov

Gravitational coupling between young planets and their parent disks is often explored using numerical simulations, which typically treat the disk thermodynamics in a highly simplif…

Circumbinary Accretion from Finite and Infinite Disks

Diego Muñoz, Dong Lai, Kaitlin Kratter +1

We carry out 2D viscous hydrodynamics simulations of circumbinary disk (CBD) accretion using {\footnotesize AREPO}. We resolve the accretion flow from a large-scale CBD down to the…

On the planetary interpretation of multiple gaps and rings in protoplanetary disks seen by ALMA

Ryan Miranda, Roman R. Rafikov

It has been recently suggested that the multiple concentric rings and gaps discovered by ALMA in many protoplanetary disks may be produced by a single planet, as a result of the co…
