Challenges in planet formation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research E: Planets, 2016
AbstractOver the past two decades, large strides have been made in the field of planet formation. Yet fundamental questions remain. Here we review our state of understanding of five fundamental bottlenecks in planet formation. These are the following: (1) the structure and evolution of protoplanetary disks; (2) the growth of the first planetesimals; (3)

Terrestrial planet formation. [PDF]

open access: yesProc 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.

A tale of planet formation: from dust to planets [PDF]

open access: yesResearch in Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2020
Abstract The characterization of exoplanets and their birth protoplanetary disks has enormously advanced in the last decade. Benefitting from that, our global understanding of the planet formation processes has been substantially improved.

Planetesimal fragmentation and giant planet formation: the role of planet migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the standard model of core accretion, the cores of the giant planets form by the accretion of planetesimals. In this scenario, the evolution of the planetesimal population plays an important role in the formation of massive cores. Recently, we studied

Planet Formation in Binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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. Numerous studies have investigated to what extent the presence of a stellar companion can affect the planet formation process.

The influence of planetesimal fragmentation on planet formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Context. The effects of planetesimal fragmentation on planet formation has been studied by various models on single embryos therefore neglecting concurrent effects mostly in the outer disk. They show that planetesimal fragmentation can both hinder or aid
