Suppression of Resonant Overstability at Sharp Migration Gradients
Konstantin Batygin, Ian R. Brunton, Alessandro Morbidelli
Mean-motion resonances are expected to frequently arise at the inner edges of protoplanetary disks, where planet-disk interactions facilitate large-scale orbital convergence. Under…
Origins of Compact Mean-Motion Resonances: Evidence for Long-Range Migration and the Case of Kepler-36
Konstantin Batygin, Alessandro Morbidelli
The observed census of resonant extrasolar planets spans a tantalizing display of orbital architectures, ranging from familiar 2:1 and 3:2 mean-motion commensurabilities to nearly…
Compositional Outcomes of Earth Formation from a Narrow Ring
Katherine I. Dale, Alessandro Morbidelli, David C. Rubie +1
We address Earth formation from an elemental perspective, using a method similar to Rubie et al. (2015) but with updates from Dale et al. (2023) to simulate the chemical evolution…
Reassessing the origin and evolution of Ecliptic Comets in the Planet-9 Scenario
Rafael Ribeiro, Andre Izidoro, Alessandro Morbidelli +2
A group of newly observed extreme trans-Neptunian objects exhibit unexpected orbital confinement, characterized by the alignment of orbital angular momentum vectors and apsidal lin…
Dust rings trap protoplanets on eccentric orbits and get consumed by them
David A. Velasco-Romero, Frédéric S. Masset, Alessandro Morbidelli +3
We study the orbital evolution and mass growth of protoplanets with masses ~M in the vicinity of a dusty ring, using three-dimensional numerical simulations…
Super-Earth formation with slow migration from a ring in an evolving peaked disk compatible with terrestrial planet formation
Masahiro Ogihara, Alessandro Morbidelli, Masanobu Kunitomo
For the origin of the radially concentrated solar system's terrestrial planets, planet formation from a ring of solids at about 1 au from the Sun with convergent/suppressed type I…
