How leaky? A large parameter study of leaky dust traps to quantify the transport of pebbles and ice in protoplanetary discs
Adrien Houge, Anders Johansen, Andrea Banzatti +1
In protoplanetary discs, the presence of dust traps can significantly alter the transport of solids from the outer to the inner regions, and hence they are often invoked as an expl…
