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

The influence of planetesimal fragmentation on planet formation

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

Simulations for Terrestrial Planets Formation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractWe investigate the formation of terrestrial planets in the late stage of planetary formation using two-planet model. At that time, the protostar has formed for about 3 Myr and the gas disk has dissipated. In the model, the perturbations from Jupiter and Saturn are considered.

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 ...

Influence of Stellar Multiplicity On Planet Formation. IV. Adaptive Optics Imaging of Kepler Stars With Multiple Transiting Planet Candidates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Kepler mission provides a wealth of multiple transiting planet systems (MTPSs). The formation and evolution of multi-planet systems are likely to be influenced by companion stars given the abundance of multiple stellar systems. We study the influence

The interplay between pebble and planetesimal accretion in population synthesis models and its role in giant planet formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Context. In the core accretion scenario of planet formation, rocky cores grow by first accreting solids until they are massive enough to accrete gas. For giant planet formation, this means that a massive core must form within the lifetime of the gas disk.

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 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.
