Two timescale dispersal of magnetized protoplanetary disks
Philip J. Armitage, Jacob B. Simon, Rebecca G. Martin
Protoplanetary disks are likely to be threaded by a weak net flux of vertical magnetic field that is a remnant of the much larger fluxes present in molecular cloud cores. If this f…
The gravo-magneto disc instability with a viscous dead zone
Rebecca G. Martin, Stephen H. Lubow
We consider the evolution of accretion discs that contain some turbulence within a disc dead zone, a region about the disc midplane of a disc that is not sufficiently ionised for t…
Formation of circumbinary planets in a dead zone
Rebecca G. Martin, Philip J. Armitage, Richard D. Alexander
Circumbinary planets have been observed at orbital radii where binary perturbations may have significant effects on the gas disk structure, on planetesimal velocity dispersion, and…
Propagation of the Gravo-Magneto Disc Instability
Rebecca G. Martin, Stephen H. Lubow
Discs that contain dead zones are subject to the Gravo-Magneto (GM) instability that arises when the turbulence shifts from gravitational to magnetic. We have previously described…
