  1. 1. The Milky Way and its Exoplanets

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Jesper Nielsen; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Planets and Satellites; Exoplanets; Occurrence Rates; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : The detections of over 4000 exoplanets as of today has shown that they exist in a wide range of different configurations, otherwise known as architectures. Recently, studies have been made trying to link the environment of host stars to the architectures of their planetary systems and have found that the architectures of planetary systems may not necessarily be uniform in the Milky Way.

  2. 2. The fate of pebbles and planetesimals entering protoplanetary envelopes

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Emil Zadera; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Planet formation; planet; protoplanet; protoplanetary envelope; protoplanetary atmosphere; protoplanetary growth; planetary growth model; accretion rate; vapour blob; vapourblob; vapour planet; transport of water; water on planet; pebbles; planetesimals; pebble accretion; planetesimal accretion; meteors; ablation; fragmentation; sublimation; protoplanetary disk; MMSN; accretion window; accretion channel; accretion; destruction; disruption; terminal velocity; gas; gasflow; shearingbox; exoplanet; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Planetary embryos grow by the accretion of solid dust-material, ranging from cm- to m-sized pebbles up to km-sized planetesimals. However, the underlying size-distribution of the accreted material is poorly understood. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Influence of grain growth on the thermal structure of inner protoplanetary discs

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Sofia Savvidou; [2018]
    Nyckelord :protoplanetary disc; thermal structure; hydrodynamical simulations; grain size distribution; grain growth; opacity; iceline; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Protoplanetary discs surround young stars for the first few million years after their formation and they are the birthplaces of planetary systems. The thermal structure of the discs is regulated by their dust content and the opacity that it provides. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Planet migration in evolving protoplanetary discs

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Linn Eriksson; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Planets and satellites: formation; Protoplanetary discs: evolution; Planet-disc interactions; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : The rate of migration and accretion onto protoplanets is greatly influenced by the structure of the surrounding protoplanetary disc. This structure changes with time as the disc evolves on a million year timescale, implying that the process of planet formation might look very different depending on when it was initiated. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Can planet formation explain the observed differences in the chemical composition of binary stars?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Rebecca Forsberg; [2017]
    Nyckelord :binary stars; planet formation; protoplanetary disc; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : A suggested explanation for the observed differences in chemical abundances in binary stars has been planet formation (e.g. Tucci Maia et al. 2014). LÄS MER
