Formation and evolution of a protoplanetary disk: combining observations, simulations and cosmochemical constraints
Alessandro Morbidelli, Yves Marrocchi, Adnan Ali Ahmad +12
We present a plausible and coherent view of the evolution of the protosolar disk that is consistent with the cosmochemical constraints and compatible with observations of other pro…
The Bulk Densities of Small Solar System Bodies as a Probe of Planetesimal Formation
Misako Tatsuuma, Akimasa Kataoka, Hidekazu Tanaka +1
Constraining the formation processes of small solar system bodies is crucial for gaining insights into planetesimal formation. Their bulk densities, determined by their compressive…
Contemporary formation of early solar system planetesimals at two distinct radial locations
Alessandro Morbidelli, Kevin Baillie, Konstantin Batygin +4
The formation of planetesimals is expected to occur via particle-gas instabilities that concentrate dust into self-gravitating clumps. Triggering these instabilities requires the p…
Convective storms and atmospheric vertical structure in Uranus and Neptune
R. Hueso, T. Guillot, A. Sánchez-Lavga
The Ice Giants Uranus and Neptune have hydrogen-based atmospheres with several constituents that condense in their cold upper atmospheres. A small number of bright cloud systems ob…
The composition of transiting giant extrasolar planets
Tristan Guillot
In principle, the combined measurements of the mass and radius a giant exoplanet allow one to determine the relative fraction of hydrogen and helium and of heavy elements in the pl…
On the Origin of HD149026b
M. Ikoma, T. Guillot, H. Genda +2
The high density of the close-in extrasolar planet HD149026b suggests the presence of a huge core in the planet, which challenges planet formation theory. We first derive constrain…
