Dynamical Shakeup of Planetary Systems II. N-body simulations of Solar System terrestrial planet formation induced by secular resonance sweeping
E. W. Thommes, M. Nagasawa, D. N. C. Lin
We revisit the "dynamical shakeup" model of Solar System terrestrial planet formation, wherein the whole process is driven by the sweeping of Jupiter's secular resonance as the gas…

Resonance Trapping in Protoplanetary Disks. I. Coplanar Systems
Aaron T. Lee, Edward W. Thommes, Frederic A. Rasio
Mean-motion resonances (MMRs) are likely to play an important role both during and after the lifetime of a protostellar gas disk. We study the dynamical evolution and stability of…

Giant Planet Accretion and Migration: Surviving the Type I Regime
Edward W. Thommes, Norman Murray
In the standard model of gas giant planet formation, a large solid core (~ 10 times the Earth's mass) forms first, then accretes its massive envelope (100 or more Earth masses) of…
