From Planetesimals to Planets in Turbulent Protoplanetary Disks I. Onset of Runaway Growth
Hiroshi Kobayashi, Hidekazu Tanaka, Satoshi Okuzumi
When planetesimals grow via collisions in a turbulent disk, stirring through density fluctuation caused by turbulence effectively increases the relative velocities between planetes…
Final Masses of Giant Planets II: Jupiter Formation in a Gas-Depleted Disk
Takayuki Tanigawa, Hidekazu Tanaka
Firstly, we study the final masses of giant planets growing in protoplanetary disks through capture of disk gas, by employing an empirical formula for the gas capture rate and a sh…
Sintering-induced Dust Ring Formation in Protoplanetary Disks: Application to the HL Tau Disk
Satoshi Okuzumi, Munetake Momose, Sin-iti Sirono +2
The latest observation of HL Tau by ALMA revealed spectacular concentric dust rings in its circumstellar disk. We attempt to explain the multiple ring structure as a consequence of…
Resolution Dependence of Disruptive Collisions between Planetesimals in the Gravity Regime
H. Genda, T. Fujita, H. Kobayashi +2
Collisions are a fundamental process in planet formation. If colliding objects simply merge, a planetary object can grow. However, if the collision is disruptive, planetary growth…
Homogeneous SPC/E water nucleation in large molecular dynamics simulations
R. Angelil, J. Diemand, K. Tanaka +1
We perform direct large molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous SPC/E water nucleation, using up to molecules. Our large system sizes allow us to measure e…
Simple improvements to classical bubble nucleation models
Kyoko K. Tanaka, Hidekazu Tanaka, Raymond Angélil +1
We revisit classical nucleation theory (CNT) for the homogeneous bubble nucleation rate and improve the classical formula using a new prefactor in the nucleation rate. Most of the…
