Evolution of debris disks

MC Wyatt - Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys., 2008 - annualreviews.org
Circumstellar dust exists around several hundred main sequence stars. For the youngest
stars, that dust could be a remnant of the protoplanetary disk. Mostly it is inferred to be …

Global simulations of protoplanetary disks with net magnetic flux-i. non-ideal mhd case

W Béthune, G Lesur, J Ferreira - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2017 - aanda.org
Context. The planet-forming region of protoplanetary disks is cold, dense, and therefore
weakly ionized. For this reason, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is thought to be …

Protoplanetary disk lifetimes vs. stellar mass and possible implications for giant planet populations

Á Ribas, H Bouy, B Merín - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2015 - aanda.org
Aims. We study the dependence of protoplanetary disk evolution on stellar mass using a
large sample of young stellar objects in nearby young star-forming regions. Methods. We …
