Dust Collisions in Protoplanetary Disks: Atomic Simulations of the Surface Free Energy
L. S. Morrissey, D. S. Ebel, L. E. J. Eriksson +4
Coagulation of dust particles in protoplanetary disks is the first step on the journey to the formation of planets. The surface free energy (SFE) of the dust particles determines t…
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…
Positive Feedback II: How Dust Coagulation inside Vortices Can Form Planetesimals at Low Metallicity
Daniel Carrera, Linn E. J. Eriksson, Jeonghoon Lim +2
The origin of planetesimals (100 km planet building blocks) has confounded astronomers for decades, as numerous growth barriers appear to impede their formation. In a recent…
Positive Feedback: How a Synergy Between the Streaming Instability and Dust Coagulation Forms Planetesimals
Daniel Carrera, Jeonghoon Lim, Linn E. J. Eriksson +2
One of the most important open questions in planet formation is how dust grains in a protoplanetary disk manage to overcome growth barriers and form the 100km planet building…
Planets and planetesimals at cosmic dawn: Vortices as planetary nurseries
Linn E. J. Eriksson, Shyam Menon, Daniel Carrera +2
Low-mass, metal-enriched stars were likely present as early as cosmic dawn. In this work, we investigate whether these stars could have hosted planets in their protoplanetary disks…
