Polydisperse Streaming Instability I. Tightly coupled particles and the terminal velocity approximation
Sijme-Jan Paardekooper, Colin P. McNally, Francesco Lovascio
We introduce a polydisperse version of the streaming instability, where the dust component is treated as a continuum of sizes. We show that its behaviour is remarkably different fr…
Hydrodynamical turbulence in eccentric circumbinary discs and its impact on the in situ formation of circumbinary planets
Arnaud Pierens, Colin P. McNally, Richard P. Nelson
Eccentric gaseous discs are unstable to a parametric instability involving the resonant interaction between inertial-gravity waves and the eccentric mode in the disc. We present 3D…
Low-mass planet migration in three dimensional wind-driven inviscid discs: a negative corotation torque
Colin P. McNally, Richard P. Nelson, Sijme-Jan Paardekooper +2
We present simulations of low-mass planet--disc interactions in inviscid three-dimensional discs. We show that a wind-driven laminar accretion flow through the surface layers of th…
