Dust evolution and the formation of planetesimals

T Birnstiel, M Fang, A Johansen - Space Science Reviews, 2016 - Springer
The solid content of circumstellar disks is inherited from the interstellar medium: dust
particles of at most a micrometer in size. Protoplanetary disks are the environment where …

The origin and evolution of transition discs: Successes, problems, and open questions

JE Owen - Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2016 - cambridge.org
Transition discs are protoplanetary discs that show evidence for large holes or wide gaps
(with widths comparable to their radii) in their dust component. These discs could be giving …

Dust and gas in the disk of HL Tauri: surface density, dust settling, and dust-to-gas ratio

C Pinte, WRF Dent, F Ménard, A Hales… - The Astrophysical …, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
The recent ALMA observations of the disk surrounding HL Tau reveal a very complex dust

We explore the dynamical structure of the protoplanetary disks surrounding HD 163296 and
MWC 480 as part of the Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) large …

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
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 …

Aims. Recent observations by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) of
disks around young stars revealed distinct asymmetries in the dust continuum emission. In …

On planet formation in HL Tau

G Dipierro, D Price, G Laibe, K Hirsh… - Monthly Notices of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
We explain the axisymmetric gaps seen in recent long-baseline observations of the HL Tau
protoplanetary disc with the Atacama Large Millimetre/Submillimetre Array (ALMA) as being …

Phantom: A smoothed particle hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics code for astrophysics

DJ Price, J Wurster, TS Tricco, C Nixon… - Publications of the …, 2018 - cambridge.org
We present Phantom, a fast, parallel, modular, and low-memory smoothed particle
hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics code developed over the last decade for …
