The role of density perturbation on planet formation by pebble accretion
(arXiv preprint, 2022-01-28)
Protoplanetary discs exhibit a diversity of gaps and rings of dust material, believed to be a manifestation of pressure maxima commonly associated with an ongoing planet formation and several other physical processes. ...
Planet population synthesis: The role of stellar encounters
(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 ...
