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.

Three-dimensional SPH Simulations of FU Orionis Star Flares in the Clumpy Accretion Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
One of the early hypotheses about the origin of FU Orionis star (FUORs) outbursts explains them based on the fall of gas clumps from the remnants of protostellar clouds onto protoplanetary disks surrounding young stars.

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.

Location and sizes of forsterite grains in protoplanetary disks: interpretation from the Herschel DIGIT programme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The spectra of protoplanetary disks contain mid- and far- infrared emission features produced by forsterite dust grains. The spectral features contain information about the forsterite temperature, chemical composition and grain size.

The effects of pressure on immiscibility in metallic, core‐forming liquids: Implications for protoplanetary differentiation

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 720-738, April 2026.
Abstract Mechanisms for metal core formation in rocky planetesimals and planetary embryos remain poorly constrained, in part due to complexities arising from immiscibility in core‐forming liquids at low pressures. To assess the pressure dependence of immiscibility and its role in protoplanetary differentiation, we performed experiments at 3 and 5 GPa ...

Sites of Planet Formation in Binary Systems. I. Evidence for Disk−Orbit Alignment in the Close Binary FO Tau

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Close binary systems present challenges to planet formation. As binary separations decrease, so do the occurrence rates of protoplanetary disks in young systems and planets in mature systems.

Protoplanetary gas disks in the far infrared

open access: yes, 2009
The physical and chemical conditions in young protoplanetary disks set the boundary conditions for planet formation. Although the dust in disks is relatively easily detected as a far-IR photometric ``excess'' over the expected photospheric emission, much

Confined Chemistry in Space: Zeolite‐Supported Fe13 Nanoclusters Modulate CS Reactivity

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
The study explores how an Fe13 cluster confined in chabazite reshapes the reaction of CS and H2 under astrochemical conditions. Confinement promotes C–S bond cleavage over hydrogenation, directing chemistry toward CH4 and H2S formation. Additional CS enables CS2 and C2 species. Microkinetic analysis identifies protoplanetary environments where zeolites

Exploring the Complex Ionization Environment of the Turbulent DM Tau Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Ionization drives important chemical and dynamical processes within protoplanetary disks, including the formation of organics and water in the cold midplane and the transportation of material via accretion and magnetohydrodynamic flows.

Interaction of Supernova Ejecta with Nearby Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yes, 2007
The early Solar System contained short-lived radionuclides such as 60Fe (t1/2 = 1.5 Myr) whose most likely source was a nearby supernova. Previous models of Solar System formation considered a supernova shock that triggered the collapse of the Sun's ...
