Dust evolution in protoplanetary disks

L Testi, T Birnstiel, L Ricci, S Andrews… - … and Planets VI, 2014 - books.google.com
In this chapter we will discuss the evolution of dust in protoplanetary disks, focusing on the
processes of grain growth and the observational consequences of this process. In the …

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 2014 ALMA long baseline campaign: first results from high angular resolution observations toward the HL Tau region

CL Brogan, LM Pérez, TR Hunter… - The Astrophysical …, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
ABSTRACT We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations
from the 2014 Long Baseline Campaign in dust continuum and spectral line emission from …

The mass dependence between protoplanetary disks and their stellar hosts

SM Andrews, KA Rosenfeld, AL Kraus… - The Astrophysical …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a substantial extension of the millimeter (mm) wave continuum photometry
catalog for circumstellar dust disks in the Taurus star-forming region, based on a new" …

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 …

Theory of star formation

CF McKee, EC Ostriker - Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys., 2007 - annualreviews.org
We review current understanding of star formation, outlining an overall theoretical framework
and the observations that motivate it. A conception of star formation has emerged in which …

The stickiness of micrometer-sized water-ice particles

B Gundlach, J Blum - The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
Water ice is one of the most abundant materials in dense molecular clouds and in the outer
reaches of protoplanetary disks. In contrast to other materials (eg, silicates), water ice is …

The growth mechanisms of macroscopic bodies in protoplanetary disks

J Blum, G Wurm - Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys., 2008 - annualreviews.org
The formation of planetesimals, the kilometer-sized planetary precursors, is still a puzzling
process. Considerable progress has been made over the past years in the physical …

Protoplanetary disks and their evolution

JP Williams, LA Cieza - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2011 - annualreviews.org
Flattened, rotating disks of cool dust and gas extending for tens to hundreds of astronomical
units are found around almost all low-mass stars shortly after their birth. These disks …

Where is the water? Jupiter-like C/H ratio but strong H2O depletion found on τ Boötis b using SPIRou

S Pelletier, B Benneke, A Darveau-Bernier… - The Astronomical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
The present-day envelope of gaseous planets is a relic of how these giant planets originated
and evolved. Measuring their elemental composition therefore presents a powerful …
