The influence of a static planetary atmosphere on spin transfer during pebble accretion
M. J. Yzer, R. G. Visser, C. Dominik
We study the effect an atmosphere has on pebble orbits and spin build-up on a planet's surface during pebble accretion in the extreme case of a static atmosphere. We numerically in…
Forming equal mass planetary binaries via pebble accretion
T. J. Konijn, R. G. Visser, C. Dominik +1
Binary solar system objects are common and range from satellite systems with very large mass ratios to mass ratios very close to unity. A well-known example of a binary i…
Prograde spin-up during gravitational collapse
Rico G. Visser, Marc G. Brouwers
Asteroids, planets, stars in some open clusters, as well as molecular clouds appear to possess a preferential spin-orbit alignment, pointing to shared processes that tie their rota…
The radial structure of planetary bodies formed by the streaming instability
Rico G. Visser, Joanna Drążkowska, Carsten Dominik
Comets and small planetesimals are believed to contain primordial building blocks in the form of millimeter to centimeter sized pebbles. One of the viable growing mechanisms to for…
Spinning up planetary bodies by pebble accretion
R. G. Visser, C. W. Ormel, C. Dominik +1
Most major planetary bodies in the solar system rotate in the same direction as their orbital motion: their spin is prograde. Theoretical studies to explain the direction as well a…
On the growth of pebble-accreting planetesimals
Rico G. Visser, Chris W. Ormel
Pebble accretion is a new mechanism to quickly grow the cores of planets. In pebble accretion, gravity and gas drag conspire to yield large collisional cross sections for small par…
