Dust Transport and Processing in Centrifugally Driven Protoplanetary Disk Winds

Steven Giacalone, Seth Teitler, Arieh Königl +2

There is evidence that protoplanetary disks--including the protosolar one--contain crystalline dust grains on spatial scales where the dust temperature is lower than the threshold…

A test of the high-eccentricity migration scenario for close-in planets

Steven Giacalone, Titos Matsakos, Arieh Königl

In the high-eccentricity migration (HEM) scenario, close-in planets reach the vicinity of the central star on high-eccentricity orbits that become circularized---with a concomitant…

The gravitational interaction between planets on inclined orbits and protoplanetary disks as the origin of primordial spin--orbit misalignments

Titos Matsakos, Arieh Königl

Many of the observed spin--orbit alignment properties of exoplanets can be explained in the context of the primordial disk misalignment model, in which an initially aligned protopl…

On the origin of the sub-Jovian desert in the orbital-period--planetary-mass plane

Titos Matsakos, Arieh Königl

Transit and radial velocity observations indicate a dearth of sub-Jupiter--mass planets on short-period orbits, outlined roughly by two oppositely sloped lines in the period--mass…

A hot Jupiter for breakfast? --- Early stellar ingestion of planets may be common

Titos Matsakos, Arieh Königl

Models of planet formation and evolution predict that giant planets form efficiently in protoplanetary disks, that most of these migrate rapidly to the disk's inner edge, and that,…

Radial and vertical angular momentum transport in protostellar discs

Raquel Salmeron, Arieh Königl, Mark Wardle

Angular momentum in protostellar discs can be transported either radially, through turbulence induced by the magnetorotational instability (MRI), or vertically, through the torque…
