A Traveling Feature in Saturn's Rings
Morgan E. Rehnberg, Larry W. Esposito, Zarah L. Brown +3
The co-orbital satellites of Saturn, Janus and Epimetheus, swap radial positions every 4.0 years. Since \textit{Cassini} has been in orbit about Saturn, this has occurred on 21 Jan…
Photoevaporation as a Truncation Mechanism for Circumplanetary Disks
Tyler R. Mitchell, Glen R. Stewart
We investigate the conditions under which the regular satellites of Jupiter and Saturn formed. The final stage of giant planet accretion is thought to occur slowly over a relativel…
Evolution of the Solar Nebula and Planet Growth Under the Influence of Photoevaporation
Tyler R. Mitchell, Glen R. Stewart
The recent development of a new minimum mass solar nebula, under the assumption that the giant planets formed in the compact configuration of the Nice model, has shed new light on…
Baroclinic Vorticity Production in Protoplanetary Disks; Part II: Vortex Growth and Longevity
Mark R. Petersen, Glen R. Stewart, Keith Julien
The factors affecting vortex growth in convectively stable protoplanetary disks are explored using numerical simulations of a two-dimensional anelastic-gas model which includes bar…
Baroclinic Vorticity Production in Protoplanetary Disks; Part I: Vortex Formation
Mark R. Petersen, Keith Julien, Glen R. Stewart
The formation of vortices in protoplanetary disks is explored via pseudo-spectral numerical simulations of an anelastic-gas model. This model is a coupled set of equations for vort…
