The evolution of gravitationally unstable protoplanetary disks: fragmentation and possible giant planet formation
We carry out a large set of very high resolution, three dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations describing the evolution of gravitationally unstable gaseous protoplanetary disks. We consider a broad range of initial disk parameters. Disk masses out to 20 AU range from 0.075 to 0.125 M⊙, roughly consistent with the high-end of the mass distribution inferred for disks around...
متن کاملSignatures of Planet Formation in Gravitationally Unstable Disks
In this Letter, we calculate simulated scattered light images of a circumstellar disk in which a planet is forming by gravitational instability. The simulated images bear no correlation to the vertically integrated surface density of the disk, but rather trace the density structure in the tenuous upper layers of the disk. Although the density at high altitudes does not bear a direct relation to...
متن کاملOligarchic and giant impact growth of terrestrial planets in the presence of gas giant planet migration
Giant planets found orbiting close to their central stars, the so-called ‘hot Jupiters’, are thought to have originally formed in the cooler outer regions of a protoplanetary disk and then to have migrated inward via tidal interactions with the nebula gas. We present the results of N–body simulations which examine the effect such gas giant planet migration has on the formation of terrestrial pl...
متن کاملFragmentation of Gravitationally Unstable Gaseous Protoplanetary Disks with Radiative Transfer
We report on the results of the first 3D SPH simulation of massive, gravitationally unstable protoplanetary disks with radiative transfer. We adopt a flux-limited diffusion scheme justified by the high opacity of most of the disk. The optically thin surface of the disk cools as a blackbody. The disks grow slowly in mass starting from a Toomre-stable initial condition to the point at which they ...
متن کاملMolecular Line Emission from Gravitationally Unstable Protoplanetary Disks
In the era of high-resolution submillimeter interferometers, it will soon be possible to observe the neutral circumstellar medium directly involved in gas giant planet (GGP) formation at physical scales previously unattainable. In order to explore possible signatures of GGP formation via disk instabilities, we have combined a three-dimensional (3D), nonlocal thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) radi...
