From Fragments to Flares: Migration, Tidal Disruption, and Observable Bursts in Massive Protostellar Disks
Vardan Elbakyan, Rolf Kuiper, André Oliva +4
We investigate how resolving the inner few astronomical units of a massive protostellar disk affects the migration, disruption, and accretion signatures of an inward-moving fragmen…

Episodic accretion in high-mass star formation: An analysis of thermal instability for axially symmetric disks
Vardan Elbakyan, Dennis Wehner, Rolf Kuiper +3
High-mass young stellar objects exhibit episodic accretion bursts similar to their low-mass counterparts. Understanding these outbursts is crucial for elucidating massive star form…
