Explaining the variability of WD 1145+017 with simulations of asteroid tidal disruption

Dimitri Veras, Philip J. Carter, Zoe M. Leinhardt +1

Post-main-sequence planetary science has been galvanised by the striking variability, depth and shape of the photometric transit curves due to objects orbiting white dwarf WD 1145+…

Modelling circumbinary protoplanetary disks: I. Fluid simulations of the Kepler-16 and 34 systems

S. Lines, Z. M. Leinhardt, C. Baruteau +2

The Kepler mission's discovery of a number of circumbinary planets orbiting close (a_p < 1.1 au) to the stellar binary raises questions as to how these planets could have formed gi…

A Collisional Origin to Earth's Non-chondritic Composition?

Amy Bonsor, Zoë M. Leinhardt, Philip J. Carter +3

Several lines of evidence indicate a non-chondritic composition for Bulk Earth. If Earth formed from the accretion of chondritic material, its non-chondritic composition, in partic…

Formation of planetary debris discs around white dwarfs I: Tidal disruption of an extremely eccentric asteroid

Dimitri Veras, Zoe M. Leinhardt, Amy Bonsor +1

25%-50% of all white dwarfs (WDs) host observable and dynamically active remnant planetary systems based on the presence of close-in circumstellar dust and gas and photospheric met…

Forming Circumbinary Planets: N-body Simulations of Kepler-34

Stefan Lines, Zoe M. Leinhardt, Sijme-Jan Paardekooper +2

Observations of circumbinary planets orbiting very close to the central stars have shown that planet formation may occur in a very hostile environment, where the gravitational pull…

Tidal disruption of satellites and formation of narrow rings

Zoe M. Leinhardt, Gordon I. Ogilvie, Henrik N. Latter +1

In this paper we investigate the formation of narrow planetary rings such as those found around Uranus and Saturn through the tidal disruption of a weak, gravitationally bound sate…
