Making giant planet cores: convergent migration and growth of planetary embryos in non-isothermal discs
Arnaud Pierens, Christophe Cossou, Sean Raymond
Earth-mass bodies are expected to undergo Type I migration directed either inward or outward depending on the thermodynamical state of the protoplanetary disc. Zones of convergent…
Making systems of Super Earths by inward migration of planetary embryos
Christophe Cossou, Sean N. Raymond, Arnaud Pierens
Using N-body simulations with planet-disk interactions, we present a mechanism capable of forming compact systems of hot super Earths such as Kepler 11. Recent studies show that ou…
Convergence zones for Type I migration: an inward shift for multiple planet systems
Christophe Cossou, Sean Raymond, Arnaud Pierens
Earth-mass planets embedded in gaseous protoplanetary disks undergo Type I orbital migration. In radiative disks an additional component of the corotation torque scaling with the e…
