Magnetically driven outflows from Jovian circum-planetaryaccretion disks [PDF]
We discuss the possibility to launch outflows from the close vicinity of a protoplanetary core considering a scenario where the protoplanet surrounded by a circum-planetary accretion disk is located in a circum-stellar disk. For the circum-planetary disk accretion rate we assume 6x10^{-5} M_jup/yr, implying peak disk temperatures of about 2000K.

Radial drift in warped protoplanetary disks [PDF]
The meter-size barrier in protoplanetary disks is a major challenge in planet formation, for which many solutions were suggested. One of the leading solutions is dust traps, that halt or slow the inward migration of dust particles. The source and profile of these traps are still not completely known. Warped disks are ubiquitous among accretion disks in

The temperature structure of protoplanetary disks provides an important constraint on where in the disks rocky planets like our own form. Recent nonideal magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulations have shown that the internal Joule heating associated with ...

A Machine Learning model to infer planet masses from gaps observed in protoplanetary disks [PDF]
Observations of bright protoplanetary disks often show annular gaps in their dust emission. One interpretation of these gaps is disk-planet interaction. If so, fitting models of planetary gaps to observed protoplanetary disk gaps can reveal the presence of hidden planets.

An overview of the petrography and petrology of particles from aggregate sample from asteroid Bennu
Abstract The OSIRIS‐REx mission returned a sample of regolith from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu in September 2023. We present preliminary in situ investigations of the petrology and petrography of selected particles ranging in size from 0.5 to 3 mm.

Our understanding of how exoplanets form and evolve relies on analyses of both the mineralogy of protoplanetary disks and their detailed structures; however, these key complementary aspects of disks are usually studied separately.

Two-Dimensional Transport of Solids in Viscous Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]
Large-scale radial transport of solids appears to be a fundamental consequence of protoplanetary disk evolution based on the presence of high temperature minerals in comets and the outer regions of protoplanetary disks around other stars. Further, inward transport of solids from the outer regions of the solar nebula has been postulated to be the manner

Abstract The in‐plane rotation method is used to obtain X‐ray random diffraction (XRD) patterns of polished thin sections of 10 CM chondrites. The samples include five intermediately altered CM chondrites with subtypes 2.6–2.3, two heavily altered CM chondrites with subtype 2.0 and three with secondary heating after hydration (Y 980036, Y 980051, and ...

Shedding Light on the Origin of the Broken Misaligned Circumtriple Disk around GW Ori
We revisit the origin of the observed misaligned rings in the circumtriple disk around GW Ori. Previous studies appeared to disagree on whether disk breaking is caused by the differential precession driven in the disk by the triple star system.

In this chapter, we cover the formation of protoplanetary disk as a natural byproduct of the gravitational collapse of a slowly rotating, hydrostatic cloud.
