Using linear perturbation theory, we investigate the torque exerted on a low-mass planet embedded in a gaseous protoplanetary disc with finite thermal diffusivity. When the planet does not release energy into the ambient disc, the main…
The migration of planets on nearly circular, non-inclined orbits in protoplanetary discs is entirely described by the disc's torque. This torque is a complex function of the disc parameters, and essentially amounts to the sum of two…
We study the disc planet interactions of low-mass protoplanets embedded in a circumstellar disc. We extend the standard theory of planet migration from the usual locally isothermal assumption to include non-barotropic effects, focusing on…
By means of three dimensional, high resolution hydrodynamical simulations we study the orbital evolution of weakly eccentric or inclined low-mass protoplanets embedded in gaseous discs subject to thermal diffusion. We consider both…
Low-mass objects embedded in isothermal protoplanetary discs are known to suffer rapid inward Type I migration. In non-isothermal discs, recent work has shown that a decreasing radial profile of the disc entropy can lead to a strong…
The migration of low-mass planets is driven by the differential Lindblad torque and the corotation torque in non-magnetic viscous models of protoplanetary discs. The corotation torque has recently received detailed attention as it may slow…
A luminous body embedded in an accretion disk can generate asymmetric density perturbations that lead to a net torque and thus orbital migration of the body. Linear theory has shown that this heating torque gives rise to a migration term…
A key process in planet formation is the exchange of angular momentum between a growing planet and the protoplanetary disc, which makes the planet migrate through the disc. Several works show that in general low-mass and intermediate-mass…
We study the torque acting on a planet embedded in an optically thick accretion disc, using global two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations. The temperature of an optically thick accretion disc is determined by the energy balance between…
We present the results of high resolution 2D simulations of low mass planets on fixed eccentric orbits embedded in protoplanetary discs. The aim of this study is to determine how the strength of the sustained, non-linear corotation torque…
We give an expression for the Lindblad torque acting on a low-mass planet embedded in a protoplanetary disk that is valid even at locations where the surface density or temperature profile cannot be approximated by a power law, such as an…
We study the torque on low-mass planets embedded in protoplanetary discs in the two-dimensional approximation, incorporating non-isothermal effects. We couple linear estimates of the Lindblad (or wave) torque to a simple, but non-linear,…
Using linear perturbation theory, we evaluate the time-dependent force exerted on an eccentric and inclined low-mass planet embedded in a gaseous protoplanetary disc with finite thermal diffusivity $\chi$. We assume the eccentricity and…
Rapid inward migration driven by Type I torques threatens the survival of low-mass planets in their nascent protoplanetary disks (PPDs). Positive co-rotation torques offer a potential solution, but require viscous diffusion to remain…
The torque felt by a non-accreting protoplanet on a circular orbit embedded in a uniform surface density protoplanetary disk is analyzed by means of time-dependent numerical simulations. Varying the viscosity enables one to disentangle the…
We performed linear calculations to determine the Type I planetary migration rate for three-dimensional locally isothermal disks with radial temperature gradients. For 3D disks with radial temperature gradients, the linear wave equation has…
Protoplanetary disks are mainly heated by radiation from the central star. Since the incident stellar flux at any radius is sensitive to the disk structure near that location, an unstable feedback may be present. Previous investigations…
The torques exerted by a locally isothermal disk on an embedded planet lead to rapid inward migration. Recent work has shown that modeling the thermodynamics without the assumption of local isothermality reveals regions where the net torque…
The dynamical corotation torque arising from the deformation of the horseshoe orbits, along with the vortensity gradient in the background disk, is important for determining orbital migration rate and direction of low-mass planets. Previous…
We study the torque on low mass protoplanets on fixed circular orbits, embedded in a protoplanetary disc in the isothermal limit. For low mass protoplanets and large viscosity the corotation torque behaves as expected from linear theory.…
