We determine an expression for the Type I planet migration torque involving a locally isothermal disk, with moderate turbulent viscosity (~0.0005 < alpha < ~0.05), based on three-dimensional nonlinear hydrodynamical simulations. The radial…
Low-mass planets are known to undergo Type I migration and this process must have played a key role during the evolution of planetary systems. Analytical formulae for the disc torque have been derived assuming that the planet evolves on a…
As planets grow the exchange of angular momentum with the gaseous component of the protoplanetary disc produces a net torque resulting in a variation of the semi-major axis of the planet. For low-mass planets not able to open a gap in the…
We present a numerical study of rapid, so called type III migration for Jupitersized planets embedded in a protoplanetary disc. We limit ourselves to the case of inward migration, and study in detail its evolution and physics, concentrating…
Context. The origin of giant planets at moderate separations $\simeq$$1$$-$$10$ au is still not fully understood because numerical studies of Type II migration in protoplanetary disks often predict a decay of the semi-major axis that is too…
Using 2D MHD numerical simulations performed with two different finite difference Eulerian codes, we analyze the effect that a toroidal magnetic field has on low mass planet migration in nonturbulent protoplanetary discs. The presence of…
We analyse the non-linear, three-dimensional response of a gaseous, viscous protoplanetary disc to the presence of a planet of mass ranging from one Earth mass (1 M$_e$) to one Jupiter mass (1 M$_J$) by using the ZEUS hydrodynamics code. We…
We present detailed estimates of ''type-I'' migration rates for low-mass proto-planets embedded in steady-state T-Tauri alpha-disks, based on Lindblad torque calculations ignoring feedback on the disk. Differences in migration rates for…
We study the effects of a large-scale, ordered magnetic field in protoplanetary disks on Type I planet migration using a combination of numerical simulations in 2D and 3D and a linear perturbation analysis. Steady-state models of such disks…
We report on the results of novel global high-resolution three-dimensional simulations of disk-planet interaction which incorporate simultaneously realistic radiation physics and the self-gravity of the gas, as well as allowing the planet…
The gravitational interaction between a protoplanetary disc and planetary sized bodies that form within it leads to the exchange of angular momentum, resulting in migration of the planets and possible gap formation in the disc for more…
We calculate rates of Type I migration of protoplanets in a non-isothermal three-dimensional protoplanetary disk, building upon planet-disk models developed in previous work. We find that including the vertical thickness of the disk results…
Disc-driven planet migration is integral to the formation of planetary systems. In standard, gas-dominated protoplanetary discs, low-mass planets or planetary cores undergo rapid inwards migration and are lost to the central star. However,…
(Abridged) We present global disc and local shearing box simulations of planets interacting with a MHD turbulent disc. We examine the torque exerted by the disc on the embedded planets as a function of planet mass, and thus make a first…
We present a numerical study of rapid, so called type III migration for Jupiter-sized planets embedded in a protoplanetary disc. We limit ourselves to the case of outward migration, and study in detail its evolution and physics,…
When considering the migration of Jupiter and Saturn, a classical result is to find the planets migrating outwards and locked in the 3:2 mean motion resonance (MMR). These results were obtained in the framework of viscously accreting discs,…
Migration of giant planets remains a complex topic. While significant progress has been made for high-viscosity disks, the migration of planets with large planet-star mass ratios in low-viscosity environments is still not fully understood.…
In this work, we adapt a module for planetary formation within the hydrodynamic code FARGO3D. Planetary formation is modeled by a solid core accretion scenario, with the core growing in oligarchic regime. The initial superficial density of…
To explain important properties of extrasolar planetary systems (eg. close-in hot Jupiters, resonant planets) an evolutionary scenario which allows for radial migration of planets in disks is required. During their formation protoplanets…
In the conventional view of type II migration, a giant planet migrates inward in the viscous velocity of the accretion disc in the so-call disc-dominate case. Recent hydrodynamic simulations, however, showed that planets migrate with…
