The relation between accretion rates and the initial mass function in hydrodynamical simulations of star formation
Th. Maschberger, I. A. Bonnell, C. J. Clarke +1
We analyse a hydrodynamical simulation of star formation. Sink particles in the simulations which represent stars show episodic growth, which is presumably accretion from a core th…
Characterising thermal sweeping: a rapid disc dispersal mechanism
James E. Owen, Mathias Hudoba de Badyn, Cathie J. Clarke +1
(Abridged) We consider the properties of protoplanetary discs that are undergoing inside-out clearing by photoevaporation. In particular, we aim to characterise the conditions unde…
Evolutionary constraints on the planetary hypothesis for transition discs
C. J. Clarke, J. E. Owen
We assume a scenario in which transition discs (i.e. discs around young stars that have signatures of cool dust but lack significant near infra-red emission from warm dust) are ass…
The evolution of planetesimal swarms in self-gravitating protoplanetary discs
Joe Walmswell, Cathie Clarke, Peter Cossins
We investigate the kinematic evolution of planetesimals in self-gravitating discs, combining Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamical (SPH) simulations of the disc gas with a gravitational…
