Short-Lived Gravitational Instability in Isolated Irradiated Discs
Sahl Rowther, Daniel J. Price, Christophe Pinte +3
Irradiation from the central star controls the temperature structure in protoplanetary discs. Yet simulations of gravitational instability typically use models of stellar irradiati…
A question of personalities: evolution of viscous and wind-driven protoplanetary discs in the presence of dead zones
Simin Tong, Richard Alexander, Giovanni Rosotti
Whether the angular momentum of protoplanetary discs is redistributed by viscosity or extracted by magnetised winds is a long-standing question. Demographic indicators, such as gas…
PHL 5038AB: Is the brown dwarf causing pollution of its white dwarf host star?
S. L. Casewell, J. Debes, T. J. Dupuy +9
We present new results on PHL 5038AB, a widely separated binary system composed of a white dwarf and a brown dwarf, refining the white and brown dwarf parameters and determining th…
The Role of Drag and Gravity on Dust Concentration in a Gravitationally Unstable Disc
Sahl Rowther, Rebecca Nealon, Farzana Meru +5
We carry out three dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations to study the role of gravitational and drag forces on the concentration of large dust grains (St > 1) in…
