Fossilized condensation lines in the Solar System protoplanetary disk
A. Morbidelli, B. Bitsch, A. Crida +6
The terrestrial planets and the asteroids dominant in the inner asteroid belt are water poor. However, in the protoplanetary disk the temperature should have decreased below water…
Suppression of type I migration by disk winds
Masahiro Ogihara, Alessandro Morbidelli, Tristan Guillot
Planets less massive than Saturn tend to rapidly migrate inward in protoplanetary disks. This is the so-called type I migration. Simulations attempting to reproduce the observed pr…
Terrestrial Planet Formation Constrained by Mars and the Structure of the Asteroid Belt
André Izidoro, Sean N. Raymond, Alessandro Morbidelli +1
Reproducing the large Earth/Mars mass ratio requires a strong mass depletion in solids within the protoplanetary disk between 1 and 3 AU. The Grand Tack model invokes a specific mi…
Spin-Spin Coupling in the Solar System
Konstantin Batygin, Alessandro Morbidelli
The richness of dynamical behavior exhibited by the rotational states of various solar system objects has driven significant advances in the theoretical understanding of their evol…
Accretion of Uranus and Neptune from inward-migrating planetary embryos blocked by Jupiter and Saturn
Andre Izidoro, Alessandro Morbidelli, Sean N. Raymond +2
Reproducing Uranus and Neptune remains a challenge for simulations of solar system formation. The ice giants' peculiar obliquities suggest that they both suffered giant collisions…
The great dichotomy of the Solar System: small terrestrial embryos and massive giant planet cores
A. Morbidelli, M. Lambrechts, S. Jacobson +1
The basic structure of the solar system is set by the presence of low-mass terrestrial planets in its inner part and giant planets in its outer part. This is the result of the form…
