A Systematic Survey of Moon-Forming Giant Impacts. II. Rotating bodies
Thomas Meier, Christian Reinhardt, Miles Timpe +2
In the leading theory of lunar formation, known as the giant impact hypothesis, a collision between two planet-size objects resulted in a young Earth surrounded by a circumplanetar…
A systematic survey of Moon-forming giant impacts: Non-rotating bodies
Miles Timpe, Christian Reinhardt, Thomas Meier +2
In the leading theory of lunar formation, known as the giant impact hypothesis, a collision between two planet-size objects resulted in a young Earth surrounded by a circumplanetar…
The terrestrial planet formation paradox inferred from high-resolution N-body simulations
Jason Man Yin Woo, Ramon Brasser, Simon L. Grimm +2
Recent improvements to GPU hardware and the symplectic N-body code GENGA allow for unprecedented resolution in simulations of planet formation. In this paper, we report results fro…
Machine learning applied to simulations of collisions between rotating, differentiated planets
Miles Timpe, Maria Han Veiga, Mischa Knabenhans +2
In the late stages of terrestrial planet formation, pairwise collisions between planetary-sized bodies act as the fundamental agent of planet growth. These collisions can lead to e…
Direct imaging of molten protoplanets in nearby young stellar associations
Irene Bonati, Tim Lichtenberg, Dan J Bower +2
During their formation and early evolution, rocky planets undergo multiple global melting events due to accretionary collisions with other protoplanets. The detection and character…
Secular Behavior of Exoplanets: Self-Consistency and Comparisons with the Planet-Planet Scattering Hypothesis
Miles Timpe, Rory Barnes, Ravikumar Kopparapu +3
If mutual gravitational scattering among exoplanets occurs, then it may produce unique orbital properties. For example, two-planet systems that lie near the boundary between circul…
