Composition of giant planets: the roles of pebbles and planetesimals
Claudia Danti, Bertram Bitsch, Jingyi Mah
One of the current challenges of planet formation theory is to explain the enrichment of observed exoplanetary atmospheres. Past studies have focused on scenarios where either pebb…
Enriching inner discs and giant planets with heavy elements
Bertram Bitsch, Jingyi Mah
Giant exoplanets seem to have on average a much larger heavy element content than the solar system giants. Past attempts to explain these heavy element contents include collisions…
How to make giant planets via pebble accretion
Sofia Savvidou, Bertram Bitsch
Planet formation is directly linked to the birthing environment that protoplanetary disks provide. The disk properties determine whether a giant planet will form and how it evolves…
C3PO: Towards a complete census of co-moving pairs of stars. I. High precision stellar parameters for 250 stars
David Yong, Fan Liu, Yuan-Sen Ting +6
We conduct a line-by-line differential analysis of a sample of 125 co-moving pairs of stars (dwarfs and subgiants near solar metallicity). We obtain high precision stellar paramete…
Close-in ice lines and the super-stellar C/O ratio in discs around very low-mass stars
J. Mah, B. Bitsch, I. Pascucci +1
The origin of the elevated C/O ratios in discs around late M dwarfs compared to discs around solar-type stars is not well understood. Here we endeavour to reproduce the observed di…
Do all gaps in protoplanetary discs host planets?
Anastasia Tzouvanou, Bertram Bitsch, Gabriele Pichierri
Following the assumption that the disc substructures observed in protoplanetary discs originate from the interaction between the disc and the forming planets embedded therein, we a…
