Rocky sub-Neptunes formed by pebble accretion: Rain of rocks from polluted envelopes

Allona Vazan, Chris W. Ormel

Sub-Neptune planets formed in the protoplanetary disk accreted hydrogen-helium (H,He) envelopes. Planet formation models of sub-Neptunes formed by pebble accretion result in small…

Chemical footprints of giant planet formation. Role of planet accretion in shaping the C/O ratio of protoplanetary disks

Haochang Jiang, Yu Wang, Chris W. Ormel +2

Protoplanetary disks, the birthplaces of planets, commonly feature bright rings and dark gaps in both continuum and line emission maps. Accreting planets are interacting with the d…

A massive hot Jupiter orbiting a metal-rich early-M star discovered in the TESS full frame images

Tianjun Gan, Charles Cadieux, Farbod Jahandar +41

Observations and statistical studies have shown that giant planets are rare around M dwarfs compared with Sun-like stars. The formation mechanism of these extreme systems remains u…

Atmospheric Recyling of Volatiles by Pebble-Accreting Planets

Yu Wang, Chris W. Ormel, Pinghui Huang +1

Planets, embedded in their natal discs, harbour hot envelopes. When pebbles are accreted by these planets, the contained volatile components may sublimate, enriching the envelope a…

Accretion of aerodynamically large pebbles

Helong Huang, Chris W. Ormel

Due to their aerodynamical coupling with gas, pebbles in protoplanetary discs can drift over large distances to support planet growth in the inner disc. In the past decade, this pe…

When, where, and how many planets end up in first-order resonances?

Shuo Huang, Chris Ormel

The theory of Type~I migration has been widely used in many studies. Transiting multi-planet systems offer us the opportunity to examine the consistency between observation and the…
