Kozai effect on planetesimal accretion in highly inclined binaries [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2011 Planet formation in highly inclined binaries is a complex issue. The Kozai mechanism plays an important role in this situation, since it will lead to high eccentricity and high relative impact velocity of planetesimals, thus hinder the planetesimal ...

Possible Ribose Synthesis in Carbonaceous Planetesimals. [PDF]
Life (Basel), 2022 The origin of life might be sparked by the polymerization of the first RNA molecules in Darwinian ponds during wet-dry cycles. The key life-building block ribose was found in carbonaceous chondrites.

Recurrent planetesimal formation in an outer part of the early solar system. [PDF]
Sci RepThe formation of planets in our solar system encompassed various stages of accretion of planetesimals that formed in the protoplanetary disk within the first few million years at different distances to the sun.

Collisional Processes in Extrasolar Planetsimal Disks - Dust Clumps in Fomalhaut's Debris Disk [PDF]
, 2002 This paper presents a model for the outcome of collisions between planetesimals in a debris disk and assesses the impact of collisional processes on the structure and size distribution of the disk. The model is presented by its application to Fomalhaut's

Size–Frequency Distribution of Terrestrial Leftover Planetesimals and S-complex Implanted Asteroids
The Astrophysical JournalThe isotopic composition of meteorites linked to S-complex asteroids has been used to suggest that these asteroids originated in the terrestrial planet’s region, i.e., within 1.5 au, and later got implanted into the main asteroid belt (MAB).

Chondrule formation by collisions of planetesimals containing volatiles triggered by Jupiter's formation. [PDF]
Sci RepChondrules are spherical or subspherical particles of crystallized or partially crystallized liquid silicates that constitute large-volume fractions of most chondritic meteorites.

The Planetary Science JournalEarly solar system (SS) planetesimals constitute the parent bodies of most meteorites investigated today. Nucleosynthetic isotope anomalies of bulk meteorites have revealed a dichotomy between noncarbonaceous (NC) and carbonaceous (CC) groups ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We investigate the orbital evolution of planetesimals in the inner disk in the presence of nebula gas and a (proto-) cold Jupiter. By varying the mass, eccentricity, and semimajor axis of the planet, we study the dependence of the relative velocities of ...

Ice Sublimation in Planetesimals Formed at the Outward Migrating Snowline
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Isotopic studies of meteorites suggest that planetesimals were formed as two distinct populations: noncarbonaceous (NC) and carbonaceous (CC) reservoirs.

Pore Network Modeling of Core Forming Melts in Planetesimals
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 Early in the history of the solar system, planetesimals were differentiated into metallic cores. In some planetesimals, this differentiation took place by percolation of the denser core forming liquid through a lighter solid silicate matrix. A key factor
