Super-thermal gas giant planets or their progenitor cores are known to open deep gaps in protoplanetary disks, which stop large, drifting dust particles on their way to the inner disk. The possible separation of the disk into distinct…

Protoplanetary discs contain a wide range of dust sizes that influence their thermal structure and planet formation processes such as planetesimal formation and pebble accretion. Dust evolution models are therefore essential for both planet…

We derive the single-fluid evolution equations describing a mixture made of a gas phase and an arbitrary number of dust phases, generalising the approach developed in Laibe & Price (2014a). A generalisation for continuous dust distributions…

Signposts of early planet formation are ubiquitous in substructured young discs. Dense, hot and high-pressure regions formed during gravitational collapse process, integral to star formation, facilitate dynamical mixing of dust within the…

Motivated by the stability of dust laden vortices, in this paper we study the terminal velocity approximation equations for a gas coupled to a pressureless dust fluid and present a numerical solver for the equations embedded in the FARGO3D…

From the survival of dust disks for a few Myr to the establishment of chemical dichotomy, dust traps are expected to play a pivotal role in sculpting protoplanetary disks and the early planet formation process. These traps however may not…

We present a method for simulating the dynamics of a mixture of gas and multiple species of large Stokes number dust grains, typical of evolved protoplanetary discs and debris discs. The method improves upon earlier methods, in which only a…

We present the first 2D hydrodynamical finite volume simulations in which dust is fully coupled with the gas, including its back-reaction onto it, and at the same time the dust size is evolving according to coagulation and fragmentation…

Dust growth is often neglected when building models of protoplanetary disks due to its complexity and computational expense. However, it does play a major role in shaping the evolution of protoplanetary dust and planet formation. In this…

We study the dynamics of gas and dust in a protoplanetary disk in the presence of embedded planets. We investigate the conditions for dust-gap formation in terms of particle size and planetary mass. We also monitor the amount of dust that…

Protoplanets may be born into dust-rich environments if planetesimals formed through streaming or gravitational instabilities, or if the protoplanetary disc is undergoing mass loss due to disc winds or photoevaporation. Motivated by this…
