Planet Formation in the Outer Solar System [PDF]

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2001
This paper reviews coagulation models for planet formation in the Kuiper Belt, emphasizing links to recent observations of our and other solar systems.

The birth environment of planetary systems [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2020
Star and planet formation are inextricably linked. In the earliest phases of the collapse of a protostar, a disc forms around the young star and such discs are observed for the first several million years of a star’s life.

Insights on the Sun Birth Environment in the Context of Star Cluster Formation in Hub–Filament Systems

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Cylindrical molecular filaments are observed to be the main sites of Sunlike star formation, while massive stars form in dense hubs at the junction of multiple filaments.

The Fine‐Scale Magnetic History of the Allende Meteorite: Implications for the Structure of the Solar Nebula

AGU Advances, 2021
Magnetic fields in the early solar system may have driven the inward accretion of the protoplanetary disk (PPD) and generated instabilities that led to the formation of planets and ring and gap structures.

Surface Volatile Composition as Evidence for Hydrothermal Processes Lasting Longer in Triton’s Interior than Pluto’s

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Ocean worlds, or icy bodies in the outer solar system that have or once had subsurface liquid water oceans, are among the most compelling topics of astrobiology.

Evidence for Enrichment of Niobium-92 in the Outer Protosolar Disk

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The short-lived radionuclide, niobium-92 ( ^92 Nb), has been used to estimate the site of nucleosynthesis for p- nuclei and the timing of planetary differentiation, assuming that it was uniformly distributed in the early solar system.

Early Water Delivery to Terrestrial Planet Regions during the Stages of Jupiter’s Formation and Migration in the Grand Tack Model

The Planetary Science Journal, 2023
The formation and subsequent migration of gas giants could significantly affect the material mixing in the solar system. In this study, we use N -body simulations to investigate how much water is transported into the region of the terrestrial planet ...

Making the Solar System

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We model the early stages of planet formation in the solar system, including continual planetesimal formation, and planetesimal and pebble accretion onto planetary embryos in an evolving disk driven by a disk wind.
