Dust Evolution in Protoplanetary Discs and the Formation of Planetesimals [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2018
After 25 years of laboratory research on protoplanetary dust agglomeration, a consistent picture of the various processes that involve colliding dust aggregates has emerged. Besides sticking, bouncing and fragmentation, other effects, like, e.g., erosion

The fate of planetesimals formed at planetary gap edges [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
The presence of rings and gaps in protoplanetary disks are often ascribed to planet–disk interactions, where dust and pebbles are trapped at the edges of planetary-induced gas gaps.

Planets in Binaries: Formation and Dynamical Evolution

open access: yesGalaxies, 2019
Binary systems are very common among field stars, yet the vast majority of known exoplanets have been detected around single stars. While this relatively small number of planets in binaries is probably partly due to strong observational biases, there is,

The Thermal Evolution of Planetesimals During Accretion and Differentiation: Consequences for Dynamo Generation by Thermally‐Driven Convection

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2020
The meteorite paleomagnetic record indicates that differentiated (and potentially, partially differentiated) planetesimals generated dynamo fields in the first 5–40 Myr after the formation of calcium‐aluminum‐rich inclusions (CAIs).

From stellar nebula to planetesimals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Solar and extrasolar comets and extrasolar planets are the subject of numerous studies in order to determine their chemical composition and internal structure.

Erosion of planetesimals by gas flow [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
The first stages of planet formation take place in protoplanetary disks that are largely made up of gas. Understanding how the gas affects planetesimals in the protoplanetary disk is therefore essential.

Formation of Comets

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Questions regarding how primordial or pristine the comets of the solar system are have been an ongoing controversy. In this review, we describe comets’ physical evolution from dust and ice grains in the solar nebula to the contemporary small bodies in ...

On the filtering and processing of dust by planetesimals 1. Derivation of collision probabilities for non-drifting planetesimals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Context. Circumstellar disks are known to contain a significant mass in dust ranging from micron to centimeter size. Meteorites are evidence that individual grains of those sizes were collected and assembled into planetesimals in the young solar system ...

Formation of rocky and icy planetesimals inside and outside the snow line: effects of diffusion, sublimation, and back-reaction [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Context. Streaming instability is a possible mechanism to form icy planetesimals. It requires special local conditions such as a high solid-to-gas ratio at the midplane and typically more than a centimeter in size (Stokes number >0.01).

Planetesimals in rarefied gas: wind erosion in slip flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A planetesimal moves through the gas of its protoplanetary disc where it experiences a head wind. Though the ambient pressure is low, this wind can erode and ultimately destroy the planetesimal if the flow is strong enough. For the first time, we observe
