Planet Migration in Windy Discs

Yinhao Wu, Yi-Xian Chen

Accretion of protoplanetary discs (PPDs) could be driven by MHD disc winds rather than turbulent viscosity. With a dynamical prescription for angular momentum transport induced by…

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…

The Population of Massive Stars in AGN Disks

Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin

Gravitational instability in the outskirts of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) disks lead to disk fragmentation and formation of super-massive (several 10^2Msun) stars with potentially…

APPLE: An Evolution Code for Modeling Giant Planets

Ankan Sur, Yubo Su, Roberto Tejada Arevalo +2

We introduce APPLE, a novel planetary evolution code designed specifically for the study of giant exoplanet and Jovian planet evolution in the era of Galileo, Juno, and Cassini. Wi…

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…
