Planet formation models: the interplay with the planetesimal disc
A. Fortier, Y. Alibert, F. Carron +2
According to the sequential accretion model, giant planet formation is based first on the formation of a solid core which, when massive enough, can gravitationally bind gas from th…

Formation and long-term evolution of 3D vortices in protoplanetary discs
H. Meheut, R. Keppens, F. Casse +1
In the context of planet formation, anticyclonic vortices have recently received lots of attention for the role they can play in planetesimals formation. Radial migration of interm…
