First 3-D grid-based gas-dust simulations of circumstellar disks with an embedded planet
Fabian Binkert, Judit Szulágyi, Til Birnstiel
Substructures are ubiquitous in high resolution (sub-)millimeter continuum observations of circumstellar disks. They are possibly caused by forming planets embedded in the disk. To…
An N-body population synthesis framework for the formation of moons around Jupiter-like planets
Marco Cilibrasi, Judit Szulágyi, Simon L. Grimm +1
The moons of giant planets are believed to form in situ in Circumplanetary Discs (CPDs). Here we present an N-body population synthesis framework for satellite formation around a J…
Planet formation: The case for large efforts on the computational side
Wladimir Lyra, Thomas Haworth, Bertram Bitsch +54
Modern astronomy has finally been able to observe protoplanetary disks in reasonable resolution and detail, unveiling the processes happening during planet formation. These observe…
A search for accreting young companions embedded in circumstellar disks: High-contrast H imaging with VLT/SPHERE
G. Cugno, S. P. Quanz, S. Hunziker +37
Aims: We want to detect and quantify observables related to accretion processes occurring locally in circumstellar disks, which could be attributed to young forming planets. We foc…
