The Delivery of Water During Terrestrial Planet Formation
(2018-02-01)
The planetary building blocks that formed in the terrestrial planet region were likely very dry, yet water is comparatively abundant on Earth. Here we review the various mechanisms proposed for the origin of water on the ...
THE ASTEROID BELT AS A RELIC from A CHAOTIC EARLY SOLAR SYSTEM
(2016-12-10)
The orbital structure of the asteroid belt holds a record of the solar system's dynamical history. The current belt only contains ∼10-3 Earth masses yet the asteroids' orbits are dynamically excited, with a large spread ...
Migrating Jupiter up to the habitable zone: Earth-like planet formation and water delivery
(EDP Sciences, 2017-08)
Context. Several observational works have shown the existence of Jupiter-mass planets covering a wide range of semi-major axes around Sun-like stars. Aims. We aim to analyse the planetary formation processes around Sun-like ...
Formation of planetary systems by pebble accretion and migration: How the radial pebble flux determines a terrestrial-planet or super-Earth growth mode
(2019-07-01)
Super-Earths - planets with sizes between the Earth and Neptune - are found in tighter orbits than that of the Earth around more than one third of main sequence stars. It has been proposed that super-Earths are scaled-up ...
Dynamics of rotation of super-Earths
(2013-08-01)
We numerically investigate the dynamics of rotation of several close-in terrestrial exoplanet candidates. In our model, the rotation of the planet is disturbed by the torque of the central star due to the asymmetric ...

Formation of terrestrial planets in disks with different surface density profiles
(2016-03-01)
We present the results of an extensive study of the final stage of terrestrial planet formation in disks with different surface density profiles and for different orbital configurations of Jupiter and Saturn. We carried ...
