The dispersal of protoplanetary discs. II: Photoevaporation models with observationally derived irradiating spectra
Barbara Ercolano, Giovanni Picogna, Kristina Monsch +2
Young solar-type stars are known to be strong X-ray emitters and their X-ray spectra have been widely studied. X-rays from the central star may play a crucial role in the thermodyn…
The imprint of X-ray photoevaporation of planet-forming discs on the orbital distribution of giant planets -- II. Theoretical predictions
Kristina Monsch, Giovanni Picogna, Barbara Ercolano +1
Numerical models have shown that disc dispersal via internal photoevaporation driven by the host star can successfully reproduce the observed pile-up of warm Jupiters near 1-2 au.…
Giant planet migration during the disc dispersal phase
Kristina Monsch, Giovanni Picogna, Barbara Ercolano +1
Transition discs are expected to be a natural outcome of the interplay between photoevaporation (PE) and giant planet formation. Massive planets reduce the inflow of material from…
