Ndugu, Nelson; Oyirwoth, Patrick Abedigamba; Andama, Geoffrey (Royal Astronomical Society, 2022-02-28)Depending on the stellar densities, protoplanetary discs in stellar clusters undergo: background heating; disc truncation-driven by stellar encounter; and photo-evaporation. Disc truncation leads to reduced characteristic ... -
Which stars can form planets: Planetesimal formation at low metallicities
Andama, Geoffrey; Mah, Jingyi; Bitsch, Bertram (EDP Sciences, 2024-01-26)The diversity of exoplanets has been linked to the disc environment in which they form, where the host star metallicity and the formation pathways play a crucial role. In the context of the core accretion paradigm, the ...
