Linear stability of magnetized massive protoplanetary disks
Min-Kai Lin
Magneto-rotational instability (MRI) and gravitational instability (GI) are the two principle routes to turbulent angular momentum transport in accretion disks. Protoplanetary disk…

Gravitational instability of planetary gaps and its effect on orbital migration
Min-Kai Lin, Ryan Cloutier
Gap formation by giant planets in self-gravitating disks may lead to a gravitational edge instability (GEI). We demonstrate this GEI with global 3D and 2D self-gravitating disk-pla…
