Gas Evolution in Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
This article summarizes a Splinter Session at the Cool Stars XV conference in St. Andrews with 3 review and 4 contributed talks. The speakers have discussed various approaches to understand the structure and evolution of the gas component in protoplanetary disks.

Giant Planet Formation by Disk Instability: A Comparison Simulation With An Improved Radiative Scheme

open access: yes, 2010
There has been disagreement currently about whether cooling in protoplanetary disks can be sufficiently fast to induce the formation of gas giant protoplanets via gravitational instabilities.

Shedding Light on the Origin of the Broken Misaligned Circumtriple Disk around GW Ori

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
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.

The Roles of Dust Growth in the Temperature Evolution and Snow Line Migration in Magnetically Accreting Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
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 ...

Two-Dimensional Transport of Solids in Viscous Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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

Mid‐infrared detection and characterization of refractory inclusions in CM and CO chondrites: A non‐destructive approach for returned space samples

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 544-569, March 2025.
Abstract Refractory inclusions (RIs) in chondrites are widely used as tracers of early solar system formation conditions. In the context of sample‐return missions, a non‐destructive and non‐invasive analytical tool that can rapidly detect and characterize RIs in space samples during their early phase of study is highly needed.

Transport of First Rocks of The Solar System by X-winds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It has been suggested that chondrules and calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) were formed at the inner edge of the protoplanetary disk and then entrained in magnetocentrifugal X-winds. We study trajectories of such solid bodies with the consideration

On the Formation of Planets in the Milky Way’s Thick Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Exoplanet demographic surveys have revealed that close-in (≲1 au) small planets orbiting stars in the Milky Way’s thick disk are ∼50% less abundant than those orbiting stars in the Galactic thin disk.

Disk formation and structure*

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
In this chapter, we cover the formation of protoplanetary disk as a natural byproduct of the gravitational collapse of a slowly rotating, hydrostatic cloud.

The Nitrogen Carrier in Inner Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Abstract The dominant reservoirs of elemental nitrogen in protoplanetary disks have not yet been observationally identified. Likely candidates are HCN, NH3, and N2. The relative abundances of these carriers determine the composition of planetesimals as a function of disk radius due to strong differences in their volatility. A significant
