Late Delivery of Nitrogen to Earth
Cheng Chen, Jeremy L. Smallwood, Rebecca G. Martin +1
Atmospheric nitrogen may be a necessary ingredient for the habitability of a planet since its presence helps to prevent water loss from a planet. The present day nitrogen isotopic…
Circumbinary discs around merging stellar-mass black holes
Rebecca G. Martin, Chris Nixon, Fu-Guo Xie +1
A circumbinary disc around a pair of merging stellar-mass black holes may be shocked and heated during the recoil of the merged hole, causing a near-simultaneous electromagnetic co…
Warping a protoplanetary disc with a planet on an inclined orbit
Rebecca Nealon, Giovanni Dipierro, Richard Alexander +2
Recent observations of several protoplanetary discs have found evidence of departures from flat, circular motion in the inner regions of the disc. One possible explanation for thes…
White Dwarf Pollution by Asteroids from Secular Resonances
Jeremy L. Smallwood, Rebecca G. Martin, Mario Livio +1
In the past few decades, observations have revealed signatures of metals polluting the atmospheres of white dwarfs. The diffusion timescale for metals to sink from the atmosphere o…
Polar alignment of a protoplanetary disc around an eccentric binary II: Effect of binary and disc parameters
Rebecca G. Martin, Stephen H. Lubow
In a recent paper Martin & Lubow showed that a circumbinary disc around an eccentric binary can undergo damped nodal oscillations that lead to the polar (perpendicular) alignment o…
Structure of Protoplanetary Discs with Magnetically-driven Winds
Fazeleh Khajenabi, Mohsen Shadmehri, Martin E. Pessah +1
We present a new set of analytical solutions to model the steady state structure of a protoplanetary disc with a magnetically-driven wind. Our model implements a parametrization of…
