On the Outer Edges of Protoplanetary Dust Disks
Tilman Birnstiel, Sean M. Andrews
The expectation that aerodynamic drag will force the solids in a gas-rich protoplanetary disk to spiral in toward the host star on short timescales is one of the fundamental proble…
Imaging diagnostics for transitional discs
M. de Juan Ovelar, M. Min, C. Dominik +4
Transitional discs are a special type of protoplanetary discs where planet formation is thought to be taking place. These objects feature characteristic inner cavities and/or gaps…
A Major Asymmetric Dust Trap in a Transition Disk
Nienke van der Marel, Ewine F. van Dishoeck, Simon Bruderer +9
The statistics of discovered exoplanets suggest that planets form efficiently. However, there are fundamental unsolved problems, such as excessive inward drift of particles in prot…
Explaining millimeter-sized particles in brown dwarf disks
P. Pinilla, T. Birnstiel, M. Benisty +5
Planets have been detected around a variety of stars, including low-mass objects, such as brown dwarfs. However, such extreme cases are challenging for planet formation models. Rec…
Protoplanetary Disk Structure With Grain Evolution: the ANDES Model
V. Akimkin, S. Zhukovska, D. Wiebe +5
We present a self-consistent model of a protoplanetary disk: 'ANDES' ('AccretioN disk with Dust Evolution and Sedimentation'). ANDES is based on a flexible and extendable modular s…
