Observation of aerodynamic instability in the flow of a particle stream in a dilute gas

Holly L. Capelo, Jan Molacek, Michiel Lambrechts +5

Forming macroscopic solid bodies in circumstellar discs requires local dust concentration levels significantly higher than the mean. Interactions of the dust particles with the gas…

How planetary growth outperforms migration

Anders Johansen, Shigeru Ida, Ramon Brasser

Planetary migration is a major challenge for planet formation theories. The speed of Type I migration is proportional to the mass of a protoplanet, while the final decade of growth…

Diffusion and Concentration of Solids in the Dead Zone of a Protoplanetary Disk

Chao-Chin Yang, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Anders Johansen

The streaming instability is a promising mechanism to drive the formation of planetesimals in protoplanetary disks. To trigger this process, it has been argued that sedimentation o…

Streaming Instability of Multiple Particle Species in Protoplanetary Disks

Noemi Schaffer, Chao-Chin Yang, Anders Johansen

The radial drift and diffusion of dust particles in protoplanetary disks affect both the opacity and temperature of such disks as well as the location and timing of planetesimal fo…

Slowing Down Type II Migration of Gas Giants to Match Observational Data

Shigeru Ida, Hidekazu Tanaka, Anders Johansen +2

The mass and semimajor axis distribution of gas giants in exoplanetary systems obtained by radial velocity surveys shows that super-jupiter-mass planets are piled up at > 1 au, whi…

Stellar abundance of binary stars: their role in determining the formation location of super-Earths and ice giants

Bertram Bitsch, Rebecca Forsberg, Fan Liu +1

Binary stars form from the same parent molecular cloud and thus have the same chemical composition. Forming planets take building material (solids) away from the surrounding protop…
