Late-infall-induced formation of giant planets, multigenerational planetesimals, and disk substructures
Haichen Zhao, Tommy Chi Ho Lau, Joanna DrÄ Å¼kowska +3
Late infall can replenish the building materials of planets in protoplanetary disks and dramatically alter their structural evolution. The resulting pressure bumps effectively accu…

Planetesimal formation in a pressure bump induced by infall
Haichen Zhao, Tommy Chi Ho Lau, Tilman Birnstiel +2
Infall of interstellar material is a potential non-planetary origin of pressure bumps in protoplanetary disks. While pressure bumps arising from other mechanisms have been numerica…
