Radiation Hydrodynamic Simulations of Massive Stars in Gas-rich Environments: Accretion of AGN Stars Suppressed By Thermal Feedback

Yi-Xian Chen, Yan-Fei Jiang, Jeremy Goodman +1

Massive stars may form in or be captured into AGN disks. Recent 1D studies employing stellar-evolution codes have demonstrated the potential for rapid growth of such stars through…

Concurrent Accretion and Migration of Giant Planets in their Natal Disks with Consistent Accretion Torque

Ya-Ping Li, Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin

Migration commonly occurs during the epoch of planet formation. For emerging gas giant planets, it proceeds concurrently with their growth through the accretion of gas from their n…

Dust Accumulation near the Magnetospheric Truncation of Protoplanetary Discs. II. The Effects of Opacity and Thermal Evolution

Rixin Li, Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin

Dust trapping in the global pressure bump induced by magnetospheric truncation offers a promising formation mechanism for close-in super-Earths/sub-Neptunes. These planets likely f…

3D Global Simulations of Accretion onto Gap-opening Planets: Implications for Circumplanetary Disc Structures and Accretion Rates

Ya-Ping Li, Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin

We perform a series of 3D simulations to study the accretion of giant planet embedded in protoplanetary discs (PPDs) over gap-opening timescales. We find that the accretion mass fl…

Jupiter Atmospheric Models and Outer Boundary Conditions for Giant Planet Evolutionary Calculations

Yi-Xian Chen, Adam Burrows, Ankan Sur +1

We present updated atmospheric tables suitable for calculating the post-formation evolution and cooling of Jupiter and Jupiter-like exoplanets. These tables are generated using a 1…

Distinguishing Magnetized Disc Winds from Turbulent Viscosity through Substructure Morphology in Planet-forming Discs

Yinhao Wu, Yi-Xian Chen, Haochang Jiang +5

The traditional paradigm of viscosity-dominated evolution of protoplanetary discs has been recently challenged by magnetized disc winds. However, distinguishing wind-driven and tur…
