The Nonlinear Ohm's Law: Plasma Heating by Strong Electric Fields and its Effects on the Ionization Balance in Protoplanetary Disks

Satoshi Okuzumi, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka

The ionization state of the gas plays a key role in the MHD of protoplanetary disks. However, the ionization state can depend on the gas dynamics, because electric fields induced b…

ALMA observations of a high-density core in Taurus: dynamical gas interaction at the possible site of a multiple star formation

Kazuki Tokuda, Toshikazu Onishi, Kazuya Saigo +7

Starless dense cores eventually collapse dynamically, which forms protostars inside them, and the physical properties of the cores determine the nature of the forming protostars. W…

N-body Simulations of Terrestrial Planet Formation under the Influence of a Hot Jupiter

Masahiro Ogihara, Hiroshi Kobayashi, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka

We investigate the formation of multiple-planet systems in the presence of a hot Jupiter using extended N-body simulations that are performed simultaneously with semi-analytic calc…

On the Viability of the Magnetorotational Instability in Circumplanetary Disks

Yuri I. Fujii, Satoshi Okuzumi, Takayuki Tanigawa +1

We examine whether the magnetorotational instability (MRI) can serve as a mechanism of angular momentum transport in circumplanetary disks. For the MRI to operate the ionization de…

Effects of radiation transfer on the structure of self-gravitating disks, their fragmentation and evolution of the fragments

Yusuke Tsukamoto, Sanemichi Z. Takahashi, Masahiro N. Machida +1

We investigate structure of self-gravitating disks, their fragmentation and evolution of the fragments (the clumps) using both analytic approach and three-dimensional radiation hyd…

A Statistical Analysis of SEEDS and Other High-Contrast Exoplanet Surveys: Massive Planets or Low-Mass Brown Dwarfs?

Timothy D. Brandt, Michael W. McElwain, Edwin L. Turner +50

We conduct a statistical analysis of a combined sample of direct imaging data, totalling nearly 250 stars. The stars cover a wide range of ages and spectral types, and include five…
