Circumstellar dust exists around several hundred main sequence stars. For the youngest
stars, that dust could be a remnant of the protoplanetary disk. Mostly it is inferred to be …

Abstract The Disk Substructures at High Angular Resolution Project (DSHARP) is the largest
homogeneous high-resolution (∼ 0 farcs 035, or∼ 5 au) disk continuum imaging survey …

The latest observation of HL Tau by ALMA revealed spectacular concentric dust rings in its
circumstellar disk. We attempt to explain the multiple ring structure as a consequence of …

Over the past decade, advancement of observational capabilities, specifically the Atacama
Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast …

The growth of solid particles towards meter sizes in protoplanetary disks has to circumvent at
least two hurdles, namely the rapid loss of material due to radial drift and particle …

This paper is a compilation by table, graph, and equation of impact cratering rates from
Jupiter to Pluto. We use several independent constraints on the number of ecliptic comets …

Planet formation models suggest the primordial main belt experienced a short but intense
period of collisional evolution shortly after the formation of planetary embryos. This period is …

Solid particles with the composition of interstellar dust and power-law size distribution
dn/da∝ ap (for a≤ a max with a max≳ 3λ and 3< p< 4) will have submillimeter opacity …

Context. We investigate the formation and evolution of comet nuclei and other trans-
Neptunian objects (TNOs) in the solar nebula and primordial disk prior to the giant planet …

Context. Grains in circumstellar disks are believed to grow by mutual collisions and
subsequent sticking due to surface forces. Results of many fields of research involving …
