Bow shock nebulae of hot massive stars in a magnetized medium
D. M. -A. Meyer, A. Mignone, R. Kuiper +2
A significant fraction of OB-type, main-sequence massive stars are classified as runaway and move supersonically through the interstellar medium (ISM). Their strong stellar winds i…
On the existence of accretion-driven bursts in massive star formation
D. M. -A. Meyer, E. I. Vorobyov, R. Kuiper +1
Accretion-driven luminosity outbursts are a vivid manifestation of variable mass accretion onto protostars. They are known as the so-called FU Orionis phenomenon in the context of…
On the observability of bow shocks of Galactic runaway OB stars
D. M. -A. Meyer, A. -J. van Marle, R. Kuiper +1
Massive stars that have been ejected from their parent cluster and supersonically sailing away through the interstellar medium (ISM) are classified as exiled. They generate circums…
The PLATO 2.0 Mission
H. Rauer, C. Catala, C. Aerts +159
PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it…
Global Structure of Magnetorotationally Turbulent Protoplanetary Discs
M. Flaig, P. Ruoff, W. Kley +1
The aim of the present paper is to investigate the spatial structure of a protoplanetary disc whose dynamics is governed by magnetorotational turbulence. We perform a series of loc…
Collisions of inhomogeneous pre-planetesimals
R. J. Geretshauser, R. Speith, W. Kley
In the framework of the coagulation scenario, kilometre-sized planetesimals form by subsequent collisions of pre-planetesimals of sizes from centimetre to hundreds of metres. Pre-p…
