Super-Earth masses sculpted by pebble isolation around stars of different masses
Beibei Liu, Michiel Lambrechts, Anders Johansen +1
We develop a pebble-driven model to study the formation and evolution of planets around stars in the mass range of 0.08 and 1 solar mass. The growth and migration of a large number…
Quasi-static contraction during runaway gas accretion onto giant planets
Michiel Lambrechts, Elena Lega, Richard P. Nelson +2
Gas-giant planets, like Jupiter and Saturn, acquire massive gaseous envelopes during the approximately 3 Myr-long lifetimes of protoplanetary discs. In the core accretion scenario,…
Oscillatory migration of accreting protoplanets driven by a 3D distortion of the gas flow
Ondřej Chrenko, Michiel Lambrechts
Context. The dynamics of a low-mass protoplanet accreting solids is influenced by the heating torque, which was found to suppress inward migration in protoplanetary disks with cons…
Formation of planetary systems by pebble accretion and migration: Growth of gas giants
Bertram Bitsch, André Izidoro, Anders Johansen +4
Giant planets migrate though the protoplanetary disc as they grow. We investigate how the formation of planetary systems depends on the radial flux of pebbles through the protoplan…
Formation of planetary systems by pebble accretion and migration: How the radial pebble flux determines a terrestrial-planet or super-Earth growth mode
Michiel Lambrechts, Alessandro Morbidelli, Seth A. Jacobson +4
Super-Earths are found in tighter orbits than the Earth's around more than one third of main sequence stars. It has been proposed that super-Earths are scaled-up terrestrial planet…
Formation of planetary systems by pebble accretion and migration: Hot super-Earth systems from breaking compact resonant chains
André Izidoro, Bertram Bitsch, Sean N. Raymond +4
At least 30\% of main sequence stars host planets with sizes of between 1 and 4 Earth radii and orbital periods of less than 100 days. We use N-body simulations including a model f…
