Planetary migration

open access: yes, 2008
Gravitational torques between a planet and gas in the protoplanetary disk result in orbital migration of the planet, and are likely to play an important role in the formation and early evolution of planetary systems. For masses comparable to those of observed giant extrasolar planets, the interaction with the disk is strong enough to form a gap ...

Analytical model of multi-planetary resonant chains and constraints on migration scenarios [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Resonant chains are groups of planets for which each pair is in resonance, with an orbital period ratio locked at a rational value (2/1, 3/2, etc.). Such chains naturally form as a result of convergent migration of the planets in the proto-planetary disk.

A Review of the Migration of Hydrogen From the Planetary to Basin Scale

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth
The occurrence of natural hydrogen and its sources have been reviewed extensively in the literature over the last few years, with current research across both academia and industry focused on assessing the feasibility of utilizing natural hydrogen as an ...

The Emergence of Planetary Pediatrics

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Pediatrics has witnessed an evolution from primary care, family-centered care, community pediatrics, social pediatrics and global pediatrics, which has shifted our attention beyond the clinic setting to an appreciation of children in their lived ...

Constraining the orbit of the planet-hosting binary $\tau$ Bo\"otis: Clues about planetary formation and migration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The formation of planets in compact or highly eccentric binaries and the migration of hot Jupiters are two outstanding problems in planet formation. The hot Jupiter $\tau$ Boo Ab orbits the primary star in the long-period ($P \gtrsim 1000\,$yr), highly ...

The SOAPS project – Spin-orbit alignment of planetary systems

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The wealth of information rendered by Kepler planets and planet candidates is indispensable for statistically significant studies of distinct planet populations, in both single and multiple systems.

The effect of orbital damping during planet migration on the Inclination and Eccentricity Distributions of Neptune Trojans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We explore planetary migration scenarios for formation of high inclination Neptune Trojans (NTs) and how they are affected by the planetary migration of Neptune and Uranus. If Neptune and Uranus's eccentricity and inclination were damped during planetary migration, then their eccentricities and inclinations were higher prior and during migration than ...

Comments on "Type II migration strikes back -- An old paradigm for planet migration in discs" by Scardoni et al [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In the conventional view of type II migration, a giant planet migrates inward in the viscous velocity of the accretion disc in the so-call disc-dominate case. Recent hydrodynamic simulations, however, showed that planets migrate with velocities much faster than the viscous one in massive discs.

Migration of planets embedded in a circumstellar disk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Planetary migration poses a serious challenge to theories of planet formation. In gaseous and planetesimal disks, migration can remove planets as quickly as they form. To explore migration in a planetesimal disk, we combine analytic and numerical approaches. After deriving general analytic migration rates for isolated planets, we use N-body simulations
