A Brief Overview of Planet Formation [PDF]
, 2018 The initial conditions, physics, and outcome of planet formation are now constrained by detailed observations of protoplanetary disks, laboratory experiments, and the discovery of thousands of extrasolar planetary systems.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The thermal diffusivity of MgO‐C refractories is highly sensitive to sample preparation and processing procedures. In this article, the effects of coking sequence, machining conditions, structural inhomogeneity, and graphite coating application on measurements using laser flash apparatus are systematically investigated.

A Thermodynamic Criterion for the Formation of Circumplanetary Disks
The Astrophysical JournalThe formation of circumplanetary disks is central to our understanding of giant planet formation, influencing their growth rate during the post-runaway phase and observability while embedded in protoplanetary disks.

Impact of planet--planet scattering on the formation and survival of debris disks
, 2014 Planet--planet scattering is a major dynamical mechanism able to significantly alter the architecture of a planetary system. In addition to that, it may also affect the formation and retention of a debris disk by the system.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The separation of Helium gas from natural gas is challenging but highly important. MIL‐116(Ga), a “non‐porous” metal–organic framework is used as a molecular sieve to separate He from CH4. Druse‐like MIL‐116(Ga) particles are integrated into polysulfone mixed matrix membranes.

Rapid Protoplanet Formation in Vortices: Three-dimensional Local Simulations with Self-gravity
The Astrophysical Journal LettersDisk vortices, seen in numerical simulations of protoplanetary disks and found observationally in Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array and Very Large Array images of these objects, are promising sites for planet formation given their pebble ...

The dispersal of planet-forming discs: theory confronts observations [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Discs of gas and dust around million-year-old stars are a by-product of the star formation process and provide the raw material to form planets. Hence, their evolution and dispersal directly impact what type of planets can form and affect the final ...

An Overview of Inside-Out Planet Formation
, 2015 The Kepler-discovered Systems with Tightly-packed Inner Planets (STIPs), typically with several planets of Earth to super-Earth masses on well-aligned, sub-AU orbits may host the most common type of planets, including habitable planets, in the Galaxy ...

Terrestrial Planet Formation: Dynamical Shake-up and the Low Mass of Mars [PDF]
, 2017 We consider a dynamical shake-up model to explain the low mass of Mars and the lack of planets in the asteroid belt. In our scenario, a secular resonance with Jupiter sweeps through the inner solar system as the solar nebula depletes, pitting resonant ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.HKUST‐1/TiO2 composite materials show a very high photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate which increases as a function of the irradiation time until reaching a plateau and even surpasses the performance of the 1%Pt/TiO2 material after three photocatalytic cycles.
