The Solar System could have formed in a low-viscosity disc: A dynamical study from giant planet migration to the Nice model

Philippine Griveaud, Aurélien Crida, Antoine C. Petit +2

In the context of low-viscosity protoplanetary discs (PPDs), the formation scenarios of the Solar System should be revisited. In particular, the Jupiter-Saturn pair has been shown…

A recipe for eccentricity and inclination damping for partial gap opening planets in 3D disks

Gabriele Pichierri, Bertram Bitsch, Elena Lega

In a previous paper we showed that, like the migration speed, the eccentricity damping efficiency is modulated linearly by the depth of the partial gap a planet carves in the disk…

In-situ enrichment in heavy elements of hot Jupiters

A. Morbidelli, K. Batygin, E. Lega

Context: Radius and mass measurements of short-period giant planets reveal that many of these planets contain a large amount of heavy elements, in sharp contrast with the expectati…

Migration of pairs of giant planets in low-viscosity discs

P. Griveaud, A. Crida, E. Lega

When considering the migration of Jupiter and Saturn, a classical result is to find the planets migrating outwards and locked in the 3:2 mean motion resonance (MMR). These results…

A recipe for orbital eccentricity damping in the type-I regime for low viscosity 2D-discs

Gabriele Pichierri, Bertram Bitsch, Elena Lega

It is known that gap opening depends on the disc's viscosity; however, eccentricity damping formulas have only been derived at high viscosities, ignoring partial gap opening. We ai…

Migration of Jupiter mass planets in discs with laminar accretion flows

E. Lega, A. Morbidelli, R. P. Nelson +4

Migration of giant planets in discs with low viscosity has been studied recently. The proportionality between migration speed and the disc's viscosity is broken by the presence of…
