Eccentricity evolution during planet-disc interaction
Enrico Ragusa, Giovanni Rosotti, Jean Teyssandier +3
During the process of planet formation, the planet-discs interactions might excite (or damp) the orbital eccentricity of the planet. In this paper, we present two long ($t\sim 3\ti…
Signatures of broken protoplanetary discs in scattered light and in sub-millimetre observations
Stefano Facchini, Attila Juhász, Giuseppe Lodato
Spatially resolved observations of protoplanetary discs are revealing that their inner regions can be warped or broken from the outer disc. A few mechanisms are known to lead to su…
On the different flavours of Lense-Thirring precession around accreting stellar mass black holes
S. E. Motta, A. Franchini, G. Lodato +1
Type-C QPOs in X-ray binaries have been often interpreted as a consequence of relativistic Lense-Thirring precession around a spinning black hole and they potentially offer a way t…
On the Papaloizou-Pringle instability in tidal disruption events
Rebecca Nealon, Daniel J. Price, Clément Bonnerot +1
We demonstrate that the compact, thick disc formed in a tidal disruption event may be unstable to non-axisymmetric perturbations in the form of the Papaloizou-Pringle instability.…
Protoplanetary disc `isochrones' and the evolution of discs in the plane
Giuseppe Lodato, Chiara E. Scardoni, Carlo F. Manara +1
In this paper, we compare simple viscous diffusion models for the disc evolution with the results of recent surveys of the properties of young protoplanetary discs. We introduce th…
Constraints from Dust Mass and Mass Accretion Rate Measurements on Angular Momentum Transport in Protoplanetary Disks
Gijs D. Mulders, Ilaria Pascucci, Carlo F. Manara +5
We investigate the relation between disk mass and mass accretion rate to constrain the mechanism of angular momentum transport in protoplanetary disks. Dust mass and mass accretion…
