A Comparative Study of the Streaming Instability: Unstratified Models with Marginally Coupled Grains

Stanley A. Baronett, Wladimir Lyra, Hossam Aly +19

The streaming instability is a leading mechanism for concentrating solids and initiating planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks. Although numerous studies have explored its…

Turbulence Can Persist in the Inner Regions of Weakly-Ionized Planet Forming Disks

David G. Rea, Jacob B. Simon

Identifying the mechanisms responsible for angular momentum transport in protoplanetary disks, and the extent to which those mechanisms produce turbulence, is a crucial problem in…

The Streaming Instability in 3D: Conditions for Strong Clumping

Jeonghoon Lim, Jacob B. Simon, Rixin Li +3

The streaming instability (SI) is a leading mechanism for planetesimal formation, driving the aerodynamic concentration of solids in protoplanetary disks. The SI triggers strong cl…

Turbulence Inhibits Planetesimal Formation in Class 0/I Disks Subject to Infall

Daniel Carrera, Abigail Davenport, Jacob B. Simon +5

There is growing evidence that planet formation begins early, within the Myr Class 0/I phase, when infall dominates disk dynamics. Our goal is to determine if Class 0/I…

Magnetically Driven Turbulence in the Inner Regions of Protoplanetary Disks

David G. Rea, Jacob B. Simon, Daniel Carrera +5

Given the important role turbulence plays in the settling and growth of dust grains in protoplanetary disks, it is crucial that we determine whether these disks are turbulent and t…

Streaming Instability and Turbulence: Conditions for Planetesimal Formation

Jeonghoon Lim, Jacob B. Simon, Rixin Li +6

The streaming instability (SI) is a leading candidate for planetesimal formation, which can concentrate solids through two-way aerodynamic interactions with the gas. The resulting…
