A Comparative Study of the Streaming Instability: Unstratified Models with Marginally Coupled Grains
Stanley A. Baronett, Wladimir Lyra, Hossam Aly +19
The streaming instability is a leading mechanism for concentrating solids and initiating planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks. Although numerous studies have explored its…

Evolution of dust in a protoplanetary disc driven by stellar flybys: implications for the streaming instability
Wei-Shan Su, Jeremy L. Smallwood, Min-Kai Lin +2
Stellar flybys are a common dynamical process in young stellar clusters and can significantly reshape protoplanetary discs. However, their impact on dust dynamics remains poorly un…

Particle fragmentation inside planet-induced spiral waves
Linn E. J. Eriksson, Chao-Chin Yang, Philip J. Armitage
Growing planets interact with their surrounding protoplanetary disk, generating feedback effects that may promote or suppress nearby planet formation. We study how spiral waves lau…
