Vertical Shear Instability in Thermally-Stratified Protoplanetary Disks: II. Hydrodynamic Simulations and Observability
Han-Gyeol Yun, Woong-Tae Kim, Jaehan Bae +1
We conduct three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations to investigate the nonlinear outcomes and observability of vertical shear instability (VSI) in protoplanetary disks. Our model…

Vertical Shear Instability in Thermally-Stratified Protoplanetary Disks: I. A Linear Stability Analysis
Han-Gyeol Yun, Woong-Tae Kim, Jaehan Bae +1
Vertical shear instability (VSI), driven by a vertical gradient of rotational angular velocity, is a promising source of turbulence in protoplanetary disks. We examine the semi-glo…
