Connecting planet formation and astrochemistry: C/O and N/O of warm giant planets and Jupiter-analogs
Alex J. Cridland, Ewine F. van Dishoeck, Matthew Alessi +1
(Abridged) The chemical composition of planetary atmospheres has long been thought to store information regarding where and when a planet accretes its material. Predicting this che…
Formation of Planetary Populations III: Core Composition & Atmospheric Evaporation
Matthew Alessi, Julie Inglis, Ralph E. Pudritz
The exoplanet mass radius diagram reveals that super Earths display a wide range of radii, and therefore mean densities, at a given mass. Using planet population synthesis models,…
Formation of Planetary Populations II: Effects of Initial Disk Size & Radial Dust Drift
Matthew Alessi, Ralph E. Pudritz, Alex J. Cridland
Recent ALMA observations indicate that while a range of disk sizes exist, typical disk radii are small, and that radial dust drift affects the distribution of solids in disks. Here…
Connecting planet formation and astrochemistry: A main sequence for C/O in hot-exoplanetary atmospheres
Alex J. Cridland, Ewine F. van Dishoeck, Matthew Alessi +1
To understand the role that planet formation history has on the observable atmospheric carbon-to-oxygen ratio (C/O) we have produced a population of astrochemically evolving protop…
Physics of Planet Trapping with Applications to HL Tau
Alex J. Cridland, Ralph E. Pudritz, Matthew Alessi
We explore planet formation in the HL Tau disk and possible origins of the prominent gaps and rings observed by ALMA. We investigate whether dust gaps are caused by dynamically tra…
Formation of Planetary Populations I: Metallicity & Envelope Opacity Effects
Matthew Alessi, Ralph E. Pudritz
We present a comprehensive body of simulations of the formation of exoplanetary populations that incorporate the role of planet traps in slowing planetary migration. The traps we i…
