How does the chemical composition of solids influence the formation of planetesimals?
Konstantinos Odysseas Xenos, Bertram Bitsch, Geoffrey Andama
The formation of planetesimals is a necessary step in the formation of planets. While several mechanisms have been proposed, a local dust-to-gas ratio above unity is a strong requi…
Which stars can form planets: Planetesimal formation at low metallicities
Geoffrey Andama, Jingyi Mah, Bertram Bitsch
The exoplanet diversity has been linked to the disc environment in which they form, where the host star metallicity and the formation pathways play a crucial role. In the context o…
The role of density perturbation on planet formation by pebble accretion
Geoffrey Andama, Nelson Ndugu, Simon . K. Anguma +1
Protoplanetary discs exhibit a diversity of gaps and rings of dust material, believed to be a manifestation of pressure maxima commonly associated with an ongoing planet formation…
Planet population synthesis: The role of stellar encounters
Nelson Ndugu, Oyirwoth Patrick Abedigamba, Geoffrey Andama
Depending on the stellar densities, protoplanetary discs in stellar clusters undergo background heating, disc truncation-driven by stellar encounter, and photo-evaporation. Disc tr…
Planetary core formation via multi-species pebble accretion
Geoffrey Andama, Nelson Ndugu, Simon Katrini Anguma +1
In the general classical picture of pebble-based core growth, planetary cores grow by accretion of single pebble species. The growing planet may reach the so-called pebble isolatio…
