Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton accretion by binary stars
T. A. F. Comerford, R. G. Izzard, R. A. Booth +1
Binary stars often move through an ambient medium from which they accrete material and angular momentum, as in triple-star systems, star-forming clouds, young globular clusters and…
Evidence of a past disc-disc encounter: HV and DO Tau
Andrew J. Winter, Richard A. Booth, Cathie J. Clarke
Theory and observations suggest that star formation occurs hierarchically due to the fragmentation of giant molecular clouds. In this case we would expect substructure and enhanced…
The extremely truncated circumstellar disc of V410 X-ray 1: a precursor to TRAPPIST-1?
D. M. Boneberg, S. Facchini, C. J. Clarke +3
Protoplanetary discs around brown dwarfs and very low mass stars offer some of the best prospects for forming Earth-sized planets in their habitable zones. To this end, we study th…
Radiation-pressure-driven sub-Keplerian rotation of the disc around the AGB star L2 Pup
Thomas J. Haworth, Richard A. Booth, Ward Homan +3
We study the sub-Keplerian rotation and dust content of the circumstellar material around the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star L Puppis. We find that the thermal pressure gra…
Chemical enrichment of the planet forming region as probed by accretion
Richard A. Booth, Cathie J. Clarke
The chemical conditions in the planet forming regions of protoplanetary discs remain difficult to observe directly. Gas accreting from the disc on to the star provides a way to mea…
The chemistry of protoplanetary fragments formed via gravitational instabilities
J. D. Ilee, D. H. Forgan, M. G. Evans +8
In this paper, we model the chemical evolution of a 0.25 M protoplanetary disc surrounding a 1 M star that undergoes fragmentation due to self-gravity. We use S…
