A Comparative Study of the Streaming Instability: Unstratified Models with Marginally Coupled Grains
Stanley A. Baronett, Wladimir Lyra, Hossam Aly +19
The streaming instability is a leading mechanism for concentrating solids and initiating planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks. Although numerous studies have explored its…
Azimuthal Dust Polarization from Aerodynamically Aligned Grains as Evidence for the Streaming Instability in Protoplanetary Disks
Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Jeonghoon Lim, Jacob B. Simon +8
(Sub)millimeter dust polarization in protoplanetary disks has revealed the presence of large (~ 100 um) dust grains that are aligned along their long axis following the azimuthal d…
On the Mass Budget Problem of Protoplanetary Disks: Streaming Instability and Optically Thick Emission
Daniel Godines, Wladimir Lyra, Luca Ricci +4
Statistical studies of protoplanetary disks and exoplanet populations often exhibit a "missing mass" problem, where observed dust masses in (sub-)millimeter surveys are significant…
Turbulence Inhibits Planetesimal Formation in Class 0/I Disks Subject to Infall
Daniel Carrera, Abigail Davenport, Jacob B. Simon +5
There is growing evidence that planet formation begins early, within the Myr Class 0/I phase, when infall dominates disk dynamics. Our goal is to determine if Class 0/I…
Positive Feedback II: How Dust Coagulation inside Vortices Can Form Planetesimals at Low Metallicity
Daniel Carrera, Linn E. J. Eriksson, Jeonghoon Lim +2
The origin of planetesimals (100 km planet building blocks) has confounded astronomers for decades, as numerous growth barriers appear to impede their formation. In a recent…
Positive Feedback: How a Synergy Between the Streaming Instability and Dust Coagulation Forms Planetesimals
Daniel Carrera, Jeonghoon Lim, Linn E. J. Eriksson +2
One of the most important open questions in planet formation is how dust grains in a protoplanetary disk manage to overcome growth barriers and form the 100km planet building…
