The physics of protoplanetesimal dust agglomerates. VII The low-velocity collision behavior of large dust agglomerates
Rainer Schräpler, Jürgen Blum, Alexander Seizinger +1
We performed micro-gravity collision experiments in our laboratory drop-tower using 5-cm-sized dust agglomerates with volume filling factors of 0.3 and 0.4, respectively. This work…

Planetesimal formation by sweep-up: How the bouncing barrier can be beneficial to growth
Fredrik Windmark, Til Birnstiel, Carsten Güttler +3
The formation of planetesimals is often accredited to collisional sticking of dust grains. The exact process is unknown, as collisions between larger aggregates tend to lead to fra…
