Observations of protoplanetary disk structures

SM Andrews - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2020 - annualreviews.org
The disks that orbit young stars are the essential conduits and reservoirs of material for star
and planet formation. Their structures, meaning the spatial variations of the disk physical …

Rapid growth of gas-giant cores by pebble accretion

M Lambrechts, A Johansen - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2012 - aanda.org
The observed lifetimes of gaseous protoplanetary discs place strong constraints on gas and
ice giant formation in the core accretion scenario. The approximately 10-Earth-mass solid …

Pebble-isolation mass: Scaling law and implications for the formation of super-Earths and gas giants

B Bitsch, A Morbidelli, A Johansen, E Lega… - Astronomy & …, 2018 - aanda.org
The growth of a planetary core by pebble accretion stops at the so-called pebble isolation
mass, when the core generates a pressure bump that traps drifting pebbles outside its orbit …

Separating gas-giant and ice-giant planets by halting pebble accretion

M Lambrechts, A Johansen, A Morbidelli - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2014 - aanda.org
In the solar system giant planets come in two flavours: gas giants (Jupiter and Saturn) with
massive gas envelopes, and ice giants (Uranus and Neptune) with much thinner envelopes …

Sintering-induced dust ring formation in protoplanetary disks: Application to the HL tau disk

S Okuzumi, M Momose, S Sirono… - The Astrophysical …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
