Heavy element enriched atmospheres and where they are born
Barry O'Donovan, Bertram Bitsch
The heavy element content of giant exoplanets, inferred from structure models based on their radius and mass, often exceeds predictions based on classical core accretion. Pebble dr…
The SPACE Program. I. The featureless spectrum of HD 86226 c challenges sub-Neptune atmosphere trends
K. Angelique Kahle, Jasmina Blecic, Reza Ashtari +26
Sub-Neptune exoplanets are the most abundant type of planet known today. As they do not have a Solar System counterpart, many open questions exist about their composition and forma…
How does the chemical composition of solids influence the formation of planetesimals?
Konstantinos Odysseas Xenos, Bertram Bitsch, Geoffrey Andama
The formation of planetesimals is a necessary step in the formation of planets. While several mechanisms have been proposed, a local dust-to-gas ratio above unity is a strong requi…
On Linking Planet Formation Models, Protoplanetary Disk Properties, and Mature Gas Giant Exoplanet Atmospheres
Adina D. Feinstein, Richard A. Booth, Jennifer B. Bergner +34
Measuring a single elemental ratio (e.g., carbon-to-oxygen) provides insufficient information for understanding the formation mechanisms and evolution that affect our observations…
Changing disc compositions via internal photoevaporation II: M dwarf systems
Julia Lena Lienert, Bertram Bitsch, Thomas Henning
The chemical evolution of the inner regions of protoplanetary discs is a complex process. Several factors influence it, one being the inward drift and evaporation of volatile-rich…
Burned to ashes: How the thermal decomposition of refractory organics in the inner protoplanetary disc impacts the gas-phase C/O ratio
Adrien Houge, Anders Johansen, Edwin Bergin +5
The largest reservoir of carbon in protoplanetary discs is stored in refractory organics, which thermally decompose into the gas-phase at the organics line, well interior to the wa…
