Planet Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

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.

An Analytical Theory for the Growth from Planetesimals to Planets by Polydisperse Pebble Accretion

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Pebble accretion is recognized as a significant accelerator of planet formation. Yet only formulae for single-sized (monodisperse) distribution have been derived in the literature.

Planet Formation and Disk-Planet Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This review is based on lectures given at the 45th Saas-Fee Advanced Course 'From Protoplanetary Disks to Planet Formation' held in March 2015 in Les Diablerets, Switzerland. Starting with an overview of the main characterictics of the Solar System and extrasolar planets, we describe the planet formation process in terms of the sequential accretion ...

Long-term Protoplanetary Disk Evolution from Molecular Cloud Core Collapse and Implications for Planet Formation. I. Weak and Moderate Disk Self-gravities

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). VII. Keplerian Disk, Disk Substructure, and Accretion Streamers in the Class 0 Protostar IRAS 16544–1604 in CB 68

open access: yesThe 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.

Machine-learning clustering of close-in exoplanet populations: links to pebble accretion

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Close-in exoplanets span a wide range of orbital architectures and physical properties, consistent with the combined influence of migration processes and formation conditions.

Gas dynamics around dust asymmetries in turbulent disks

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
High-resolution ALMA observations have revealed asymmetric dust crescents in several protoplanetary disks, suggesting efficient dust trapping mechanisms potentially linked to gas vortices.

Interstellar ices as carriers of supernova material to the early solar system

open access: yesNature Communications
Planetary materials show systematic variations in their nucleosynthetic isotope compositions that resonate with orbital distance. The origin of this pattern remains debated, limiting how these isotopic signatures can be used to trace the precursors of ...
