Investigating fragmentation conditions in self-gravitating accretion discs
W. K. M. Rice, G. Lodato, P. J. Armitage
The issue of fragmentation in self-gravitating gaseous accretion discs has implications both for the formation of stars in discs in the nuclei of active galaxies, and for the forma…

Quantifying orbital migration from exoplanet statistics and host metallicities
W. K. M. Rice, Philip J. Armitage
We investigate how the statistical distribution of extrasolar planets may be combined with knowledge of the host stars' metallicity to yield constraints on the migration histories…
