How drifting and evaporating pebbles shape giant planets II: Volatiles and refractories in atmospheres

Aaron David Schneider, Bertram Bitsch

Upcoming studies of extrasolar gas giants will give precise insights into the composition of planetary atmospheres with the ultimate goal to link it to the formation history of the…

Detailed elemental abundances of binary stars: Searching for signatures of planet formation and atomic diffusion

Fan Liu, Bertram Bitsch, Martin Asplund +5

Binary star systems are assumed to be co-natal and coeval, thus to have identical chemical composition. In this work we aim to test the hypothesis that there is a connection betwee…

The effect of a strong pressure bump in the Sun's natal disk: Terrestrial planet formation via planetesimal accretion rather than pebble accretion

André Izidoro, Bertram Bitsch, Rajdeep Dasgupta

Mass-independent isotopic anomalies of carbonaceous and non-carbonaceous meteorites show a clear dichotomy suggesting an efficient separation of the inner and outer solar system. O…

Dry or water world? How the water contents of inner sub-Neptunes constrain giant planet formation and the location of the water ice line

Bertram Bitsch, Sean N. Raymond, Lars A. Buchhave +3

In the pebble accretion scenario, the pebbles that form planets drift inward from the outer disk regions, carrying water ice with them. At the water ice line, the water ice on the…

How drifting and evaporating pebbles shape giant planets I: Heavy element content and atmospheric C/O

Aaron David Schneider, Bertram Bitsch

Recent observations of extrasolar gas giants suggest super-stellar C/O ratios in planetary atmospheres, while interior models of observed extrasolar giant planets additionally sugg…

The water-ice line as a birthplace of planets: Implications of a species-dependent dust fragmentation threshold

Jonas Müller, Sofia Savvidou, Bertram Bitsch

The thermodynamic structure of protoplanetary discs is determined by dust opacities, which depend on the size of the dust grains and their chemical composition. In the inner region…
