Streaming instabilities in accreting protoplanetary disks: A parameter study
Shiang-Chih Wang, Min-Kai Lin
The streaming instability (SI) is currently the leading candidate for triggering planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks. Recently, a novel variation, the `azimuthal-drift'…
Shoulder of Dust Rings Formed by Planet-disk Interactions
Jiaqing Bi, Min-Kai Lin
Recent analyses of mm-wavelength protoplanetary disk observations have revealed several emission excesses on the previously identified dust rings, referred to as dust shoulders. Th…
Convective overstability in radially global protoplanetary disks I -- Pure gas dynamics
Marius Lehmann, Min-Kai Lin
Protoplanetary disks are prone to several hydrodynamic instabilities. One candidate, Convective Overstability (COS), can drive radial semi-convection that may influence dust dynami…
Distinguishing Magnetized Disc Winds from Turbulent Viscosity through Substructure Morphology in Planet-forming Discs
Yinhao Wu, Yi-Xian Chen, Haochang Jiang +5
The traditional paradigm of viscosity-dominated evolution of protoplanetary discs has been recently challenged by magnetized disc winds. However, distinguishing wind-driven and tur…
Instabilities in dusty non-isothermal proto-planetary discs
Marius Lehmann, Min-Kai Lin
Protoplanetary discs (PPDs) can host a number of instabilities that may partake directly or indirectly in the process of planetesimal formation. These include the Vertical Shear In…
How to form compact & other longer-lived planet-induced vortices: VSI, planet migration, or re-triggers, but not feedback
Michael Hammer, Min-Kai Lin
Past computational studies of planet-induced vortices have shown that the dust asymmetries associated with these vortices can be long-lived enough that they should be much more com…
