Dust dynamics in disk dust traps and late planetesimal formation

Maya Tatarelli, Alessandro Morbidelli, Elena Lega

The streaming instability is the leading model for planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks, but it typically operates within the first ~Myr. In the Solar System, however, so…

The reflex instability: exponential growth of a large-scale mode in astrophysical discs

Aurélien Crida, Clément Baruteau, Jean-François Gonzalez +5

We report the finding of a linear, non-axisymmetric, global instability in gas discs around stars, which may be relevant to other astrophysical discs. It takes the form of an …

On the formation of multiple dust-trapping rings in the inner Solar system

E. Lega, A. Morbidelli, F. Masset +1

Isotopic properties of meteorites provide evidence that multiple dust trap or pressure bumps had to form and persist in the inner Solar System on a timescale of millions of years.…

On inertial forces (indirect terms) in problems with a central body

Aurélien Crida, Clément Baruteau, Philippine Griveaud +14

Gravitational systems in astrophysics often comprise a body -- the primary -- that far outweights the others, and which is taken as the centre of the reference frame. A fictitious…

Gas dynamics around a Jupiter mass planet: II. Chemical evolution of circumplanetary material

Alex J. Cridland, Elena Lega, Myriam Benisty

In an ongoing effort to understand planet formation the link between the chemistry of the protoplanetary disk and the properties of resulting planets have long been a subject of in…

Gas dynamics around a Jupiter-mass planet I. Influence of protoplanetary disk properties

E. Lega, M. Benisty, A. Cridland +3

Giant planets grow and acquire their gas envelope during the disk phase. At the time of the discovery of giant planets in their host disk, it is important to understand the interpl…

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…
