-mapping of planet-induced density wave damping in protoplanetary discs
Amelia J. Cordwell, Roman R. Rafikov
Planets embedded in protoplanetary discs are capable of creating a wide variety of substructures through gravitational interactions. This process is mediated through the excitation…
How two-dimensional are planet--disc interactions? I. Locally isothermal discs
Amelia J. Cordwell, Alexandros Ziampras, Joshua J. Brown +1
Planet--disc interactions, despite being fundamentally three-dimensional, are often studied in the two-dimensional `thin-disk' approximation. The overall morphology of planet--disc…
How two-dimensional are planet-disc interactions? II. Radiation hydrodynamics and suitable cooling prescriptions
Alexandros Ziampras, Amelia J. Cordwell, Roman R. Rafikov +1
The ring and gap structures found in observed protoplanetary disks are often attributed to embedded gap-opening planets and typically modeled with simplified thermodynamics in the…
Early stages of gap opening by planets in protoplanetary discs
Amelia J. Cordwell, Roman R. Rafikov
Annular substructures in protoplanetary discs, ubiquitous in sub-mm observations, can be caused by gravitational coupling between a disc and its embedded planets. Planetary density…
