Circumbinary discs with radiative cooling and embedded planets
Wilhelm Kley, Daniel Thun, Anna B. T. Penzlin
As of today ten circumbinary planets orbiting solar type main sequence stars have been discovered. Nearly all of them orbit around the central binary very closely to the region of…
Migration of planets in circumbinary discs
Daniel Thun, Wilhelm Kley
The discovery of planets in close orbits around binary stars raises questions about their formation. It is believed that these planets formed in the outer regions of the disc and t…
Circumbinary discs: Numerical and physical behaviour
Daniel Thun, Wilhelm Kley, Giovanni Picogna
We study the evolution of circumbinary disks under the gravitational influence of the binary using two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations to investigate the impact of disk and…
Dynamical friction for supersonic motion in a homogeneous gaseous medium
Daniel Thun, Rolf Kuiper, Franziska Schmidt +1
The supersonic motion of gravitating objects through a gaseous medium constitutes a classical problem in theoretical astrophysics. Its application covers a broad range of objects a…
