Planet formation: The case for large efforts on the computational side

Wladimir Lyra, Thomas Haworth, Bertram Bitsch +54

Modern astronomy has finally been able to observe protoplanetary disks in reasonable resolution and detail, unveiling the processes happening during planet formation. These observe…

Rocky super-Earths or waterworlds: the interplay of planet migration, pebble accretion and disc evolution

Bertram Bitsch, Sean N. Raymond, Andre Izidoro

Recent observations have found a valley in the size distribution of close-in super-Earths that is interpreted as a signpost that close-in super-Earths are mostly rocky in compositi…

Formation of short-period planets by disk migration

Daniel Carrera, Eric B. Ford, Andre Izidoro

Protoplanetary disks are thought to be truncated at orbital periods of around 10 days. Therefore, origin of rocky short period planets with days is a puzzle. We propose th…

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…
