Accretion of Gas Giants Constrained by the Tidal Barrier
Ya-Ping Li, Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin +1
After protoplanets have acquired sufficient mass to open partial gaps in their natal protostellar disks, residual gas continues to diffuse onto horseshoe streamlines under effect o…
Retention of Long-Period Gas Giant Planets: Type II Migration Revisited
Yi-Xian Chen, Xiaojia Zhang, Ya-Ping Li +2
During their formation, emerging protoplanets tidally interact with their natal disks. Proto-gas-giant planets, with Hills radius larger than the disk thickness, open gaps and quen…
The Preservation of Super Earths and the Emergence of Gas Giants after Their Progenitor Cores have Entered the Pebble Isolation Phase
Yi-Xian Chen, Ya-Ping Li, Hui Li +1
The omnipresence of super-Earths suggests that they are able to be retained in natal disks around low-mass stars, whereas exoplanets' mass distribution indicates that some cores ha…
