Planet formation in Binaries [PDF]
, 2016 Spurred by the discovery of numerous exoplanets in multiple systems, binaries have become in recent years one of the main topics in planet formation research.

Terrestrial planet formation. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2011 Advances in our understanding of terrestrial planet formation have come from a multidisciplinary approach. Studies of the ages and compositions of primitive meteorites with compositions similar to the Sun have helped to constrain the nature of the building blocks of planets.

, 2021 Our galaxy is full with planets. We now know that planets and planetary systems are diverse and come with different sizes, masses and compositions, as well as various orbital architectures. Although there has been great progress in understanding planet formation in the last couple of decades, both observationally and theoretically, several fundamental ...

Constraining planet formation around 6M⊙-8M⊙ stars [PDF]
, 2020 Identifying planets around O-type and B-type stars is inherently difficult; the most massive known planet host has a mass of only about 3M⊙. However, planetary systems which survive the transformation of their host stars into white dwarfs can be detected

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We construct a one-dimensional protoplanetary disk model to investigate long-term disk evolution from molecular cloud core collapse. To obtain details of disk evolution, instead of solving the traditional diffusion equation for disk surface density, we ...

Stochasticity & Predictability in Terrestrial Planet Formation [PDF]
, 2016 Terrestrial planets are thought to be the result of a vast number of gravitational interactions and collisions between smaller bodies. We use numerical simulations to show that practically identical initial conditions result in a wide array of final ...

Planet formation around low mass stars: the moving snow line and super-Earths [PDF]
, 2006 We develop a semi-analytic model for planet formation during the pre-main sequence contraction phase of a low mass star. During this evolution, the stellar magnetosphere maintains a fixed ratio between the inner disk radius and the stellar radius. As the

INSIDE-OUT PLANET FORMATION [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 The compact multi-transiting planet systems discovered by Kepler challenge planet formation theories. Formation in situ from disks with radial mass surface density, $ $, profiles similar to the minimum mass solar nebula (MMSN) but boosted in normalization by factors $\gtrsim 10$ has been suggested.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present observations of the Class 0 protostar IRAS 16544–1604 in CB 68 from the “Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk)” ALMA Large program. The ALMA observations target continuum and lines at 1.3 mm with an angular resolution of ∼5 au.

Catching a planet: A tidal capture origin for the exomoon candidate Kepler 1625b I [PDF]
, 2018 The (yet-to-be confirmed) discovery of a Neptune-sized moon around the ~3.2 Jupiter-mass planet in Kepler 1625 puts interesting constraints on the formation of the system.
