Beyond static torques: Self-consistent migration and dynamical trapping of low-mass planets in dusty disks

Jose L. Gomez, Pablo Benitez-Llambay, Ximena S. Ramos +1

The rapid inward migration of low-mass planets remains a primary theoretical challenge in planet formation. While recent studies show that the solid component of protoplanetary dis…

Not Just Gas: How Solid-Driven Torques Shaped the Migration of the Galilean Moons

Lucas Gonzalez-Rivas, Leonardo Krapp, Ximena Ramos +1

Surviving rapid inward orbital migration is a crucial aspect of formation models for the Jupiter's Galilean moons. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the orbital migra…

A Comoving Framework for Planet Migration

Ximena S. Ramos, Pablo Benitez-Llambay

The migration of planets within their nascent protoplanetary disks is a fundamental process that shapes the final architecture of planetary systems. However, studying this phenomen…

Quantifying the Impact of the Dust Torque on the Migration of Low-mass Planets II: The Role of Pebble Accretion in Planet Growth within a Global Planet Formation Model

Octavio M. Guilera, Pablo Benitez-Llambay, Marcelo M. Miller Bertolami +1

Although dust constitutes only about 1% of the mass of a protoplanetary disk, recent studies demonstrate that it can exert a significant torque on low- and intermediate-mass planet…

RAM: Rapid Advection Algorithm on Arbitrary Meshes

Pablo Benítez-Llambay, Leonardo Krapp, Ximena S. Ramos +1

The study of many astrophysical flows requires computational algorithms that can capture high Mach number flows, while resolving a large dynamic range in spatial and density scales…

Quantifying the Impact of the Dust Torque on the Migration of Low-mass Planets

Octavio M. Guilera, Pablo Benitez-Llambay, Marcelo M. Miller Bertolami +1

Disk solids are critical in many planet formation processes, however, their effect on planet migration remains largely unexplored. Here we assess for the first time this important…

Hydro-, Magnetohydro-, and Dust-Gas Dynamics of Protoplanetary Disks

G. Lesur, B. Ercolano, M. Flock +16

The building of planetary systems is controlled by the gas and dust dynamics of protoplanetary disks. While the gas is simultaneously accreted onto the central star and dissipated…

Low-mass planet migration in three dimensional wind-driven inviscid discs: a negative corotation torque

Colin P. McNally, Richard P. Nelson, Sijme-Jan Paardekooper +2

We present simulations of low-mass planet--disc interactions in inviscid three-dimensional discs. We show that a wind-driven laminar accretion flow through the surface layers of th…

Planet heating prevents inward migration of planetary cores

Pablo Benítez-Llambay, Frédéric Masset, Gloria Koenigsberger +1

Planetary systems are born in the disks of gas, dust and rocky fragments that surround newly formed stars. Solid content assembles into ever-larger rocky fragments that eventually…

Low-mass planets in nearly inviscid disks: Numerical treatment

Wilhelm Kley, Tobias W. A. Mueller, Stefan M. Kolb +2

Embedded planets disturb the density structure of the ambient disk and gravitational back-reaction will induce possibly a change in the planet's orbital elements. The accurate dete…

The mass-period distribution of close-in exoplanets

P. Benitez-Llambay, F. Masset, C. Beauge

The lower limit to the distribution of orbital periods P for the current population of close-in exoplanets shows a distinctive discontinuity located at approximately one Jovian mas…
