Planetesimal Accretion at Short Orbital Periods
Spencer C. Wallace, Thomas R. Quinn
Formation models in which terrestrial bodies grow via the pairwise accretion of planetesimals have been reasonably successful at reproducing the general properties of the solar sys…
Nonparametric Confidence Intervals for Generalized Lorenz Curve using Modified Empirical Likelihood
Suthakaran Ratnasingam, Spencer Wallace, Imran Amani +1
The Lorenz curve portrays the inequality of income distribution. In this article, we develop three modified empirical likelihood (EL) approaches including adjusted empirical likeli…
Collision rates of planetesimals near mean-motion resonances
Spencer C. Wallace, Thomas. R. Quinn, Aaron C. Boley
In circumstellar discs, collisional grinding of planetesimals produces second-generation dust. While it remains unclear whether this ever becomes a major component of the total dus…
The AGORA high-resolution galaxy simulations comparison project: Public data release
Santi Roca-Fàbrega, Ji-hoon Kim, Joel R. Primack +11
As part of the AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project (Kim et al. 2014, 2016) we have generated a suite of isolated Milky Way-mass galaxy simulations using 9 s…
N-body simulations of terrestrial planet growth with resonant dynamical friction
Spencer Wallace, Thomas Quinn
We investigate planetesimal accretion via a direct N-body simulation of an annulus at 1 AU orbiting a 1 star. The planetesimal ring, which initially contains N = …
The AGORA High-Resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. II: Isolated Disk Test
Ji-hoon Kim, Oscar Agertz, Romain Teyssier +40
Using an isolated Milky Way-mass galaxy simulation, we compare results from 9 state-of-the-art gravito-hydrodynamics codes widely used in the numerical community. We utilize the in…
