Forming Planetesimals by Gravitational Instability: II. How Dust Settles to its Marginally Stable State
Aaron T. Lee, Eugene Chiang, Xylar Asay-Davis +1
Dust at the midplane of a circumstellar disk can become gravitationally unstable and fragment into planetesimals if the local dust-to-gas density ratio mu is sufficiently high. We…
Forming Planetesimals by Gravitational Instability: I. The Role of the Richardson Number in Triggering the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability
Aaron T. Lee, Eugene Chiang, Xylar Asay-Davis +1
Gravitational instability (GI) of a dust-rich layer at the midplane of a gaseous circumstellar disk is one proposed mechanism to form planetesimals, the building blocks of rocky pl…
On the interaction of Jupiter's Great Red Spot and zonal jet streams
Sushil Shetty, Xylar S. Asay-Davis, Philip S. Marcus
In this paper, Jupiter's Great Red Spot (GRS) is used to determine properties of the Jovian atmosphere that cannot otherwise be found. These properties include the potential vortic…
