Sequential giant planet formation initiated by disc substructure

Tommy Chi Ho Lau, Til Birnstiel, Joanna Drążkowska +1

Planet formation models are necessary to understand the origins of diverse planetary systems. Circumstellar disc substructures have been proposed as preferred locations of planet f…

Can the giant planets of the Solar System form via pebble accretion in a smooth protoplanetary disc?

Tommy Chi Ho Lau, Man Hoi Lee, Ramon Brasser +1

Prevailing $N$ -body planet formation models typically start with lunar-mass embryos and show a general trend of rapid migration of massive planetary cores to the inner Solar System…

Parallelization of the Symplectic Massive Body Algorithm (SyMBA) $N$ -body Code

Tommy Chi Ho Lau, Man Hoi Lee

Direct $N$ -body simulations of a large number of particles, especially in the study of planetesimal dynamics and planet formation, have been computationally challenging even with m…
